Weekend in Warragul

After spending so much time focusing on the extension and work we thought it high time to have some focused family time. We decided to visit Aunty Kellie and Uncle Roland in Warragul for the weekend. On the way we stopped off at Gyumba park where we got to have a racing car (lawn mower in a car) drive, a play on playground equipment and see some interesting birds and animals. It was then onto the farm - the kids love the scenic tour of all the different aged calves and big fat cows (pregnant cows) and loved to see how the cows were milked.
The next day we headed off to the local pool for a family swim fest - both the girls are doing really well, Abi is swimming without floaties and Emily is doing well with just floaties. Angus took a while to start enjoying being in the water but eventually got the hang of it.
All in all we had a fantastic weekend, it was just nice to have no 'work' to do and just hang out with our beautiful kids and my lovely sister.

Party in the park

We went to a party in the park the other weekend. It was great, there was a swing for each of the kids. It's a hard life though, when the only place you can get some sleep is on the play equipment.

Look who's walking!

Our little baby is now officially a big boy - he's now trying to walk as much as he crawls. He still crawls when speed is required... so most of the time he reverts to a crawling when chasing sisters is needed.

We went out for a mothers day lunch on Saturday with mummy Pike and her daughters and mummy Walker and her kids. It was a beautiful sunny day and we all enjoyed spending time together (we did miss Belsa) and the girls enjoyed doing some exploring with Poppy.

Here are some random photos from the last few weeks.
After having a story read by mum or dad, the girls have taken to reading a story in bed - following along to a CD story (we have a collection from the library). Very cute I must say.
Angus thinks it's great fun being a big boy sitting up at the big kids table.

Cider festival

We popped into the Kellybrook cider festival at the start of the month. Lloyd was able to secure a significant amount of scrumpy cider and the kids managed to get their mouths around (well almost) a fresh toffee apple. Angus was allowed to have an apple on the stick and he was more than happy that, although he is into sharing at the moment.
