Adventures at home...

Well our Little Miss is well and truly on the move... as soon as she sees an open door her eyes light up and she shuffles as fast as she can towards it.  It is really cute to see her becoming more independent and explore her widening world... It's not quite as cute seeing the mountain of washing that comes with sliding around on the tummy (seriously I've given up cleaning my floors because no matter what I do she still will find something dirty)!

"What Mum?! You said you wanted to clean out the cupboard!"
Seriously, cupboards are a great way to keep bubs amused! :) 


 I just had to add this one in :) I put her in a hand me down pair of cousin Josh's pjs and this is what she thought...
(not really, I actually just took something off her which she was sucking on and this was her reaction!  she's teething and it was nearly bedtime...)

Helping Daddy

I was spoilt last night and got a bike as an early birthday present.  This morning Little Miss was helping Mark put it together... :)



"Which size do you need Dad?" 

"This one?" 

"Just checking that the stand works..." 


"This is serious work Mum!" 

"The tyre is a little bit flat" 

Not too sure about wearing a helmet... 


Bathtime LOVE :)





On the Move...

Our Little Miss has figured out how to move forwards... she does a strange seal crawl thing.  It was amazing to see her figure it out and master it all within about three days! It's alot more full on now trying to keep track of her, having to check up on her every 30 seconds, but she also keeps herself occupied for alot longer! :)








"WATCH OUT MUM!"

Finally eating some dinner!

Our Little Miss has finally started eating some dinner!  Thankyou Rafferty's Garden!  I think she likes the strong flavours and chunkier textures... she doesn't like puree's at all!  I guess it will be easier because I can just mash up whatever Mark and I are eating for dinner! :)






Fun at Opa and Nana's

On Sunday the 11th we went to Mum and Dad P's to celebrate John's 21st birthday.  Kara had a great time playing on the rug with Opa and Nana (and I'm pretty sure Nana and Opa had just as much fun!).  :)





Later on that week we went to Mum P's again for coffee with the Pluggie ladies... Kara had two adorable little friends to play with...

Esther, the White Rabbit

One Thursday night, a couple of weeks ago, our little family joined my family at the Gong to watch the JCCC Spelling Bee and some snippets from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, performed by the year 11's (aka Esther's class).  Esther was the White Rabbit and she did a fantastic job, you could tell she was loving every minute of performing! :) We helped her with her makeup in the afternoon but unfortunately forgot to take photos!  The whole class did a wonderful job, they are all great actors, no inhibitions at all...  Some of them even sang... boys included (go Ash!)!  Little Miss was a little chatterbox, helping the students with their spelling and giving the actors tips throughout the play.  At least she was making happy noises and not crying!  She had a little nap on Nana during the interval (probably the noisiest part of the night) and woke up again when the play started...



Didn't get any good photos... the lighting wasn't very good for picture taking and we were sitting right at the back!

Fish and Chips

This afternoon we randomly decided to head to Fremantle for fish and chips (and originally a swim but it quickly went from being a hot summers day to overcast, cool and rainy!).  We messaged the B family to see if anyone wanted to join us and were lucky enough to have CSJ&H come along!  We enjoyed yummy fish and chips and ice cream and the kids were very well behaved and entertaining! :)
