And we're off............

And we're off and racing!!

Toby's on the move

Evidence that Toby is not far off walking on his own.

He loves to practise walking with the washing trolley, his block cart, clothes airer

- anything with wheels basically!!

Splash Time

On Monday mornings Toby has been enjoying his swimming lessons. He gets to sings songs, go under water and paddle and splash in the cool of the pool.

We have a real fish here!

All this swimming makes for a tired boy

Cruisin' on the kickboard

Relle gets old

Yesterday we headed over to Ma & Pa's to spend the day with our fantastic Aunty Relle. We had a great day splashing in the little pool and running through the sprinkler trying to keep cool on a very hot day.

'so Dad, how was your day??'

BBQ tea for all to enjoy

Singing Happy Birthday to a special lady

Matt gets old

On Monday Matt clocked over another year and we were there to help him remember the good old days when he was younger!

Tea time for all the kidlets

Everyone's turn to blow out the candles

Playground fun with Jacqui

With the New Year upon us we ventured back to the beach to spend the weekend with our cousins, and whilst we were there we helped Jacqui celebrate her 2nd birthday at the Kingston Playground.

Im sure Simon got as much enjoyment from the playground as Jacqui!

Playgrounds are great for Dads too!

...and what was left of it!!

Toby turns 1

Our baby is no more, now a big 1 year old, Toby is taking on all the challenges that face him and succeeding!

Its hard to believe that just one year ago I was as big as a house and in denial that I was in labour...................oh the memories........

All the kiddies having a play together

Toby and our friendly neighbour, Miss Madeline

La did her best to entertain the little ones, especially with her cart rides.

The blocks were ditched and Toby and Jack climbed in for a ride of their lives!

One happy little camper!
