Farm Work

With the ewes started lambing we are out the farm every day to check on the progress and to make sure everything is in order. Sometimes we have the job of bringing up some lambs when their own mothers have retired from the job.

'Here lambie lambie...'

'Are you all settled in?'

Checking the sheep with Dad is always fun.....

.....He lets me drive!

After a hard days work,

its always nice to show Mum how much I love her
awwwww

Wood Cut

As the weather get chilly down south- its time to start the fire, so a big pile of wood is in order. Off we went on a family excursion out the farm to chop some fire wood.

Pa Pete, Steve and Aunty Relle picking out the best logs to cut up

Whilst the kidlets enjoyed the view from the tractor

Kida, Toby and Cooper (Kida's cousin -Schneider side)

Pa with his brood.

He managed to drive the tractor with all three 'helping'

Lets just say that the donut maneuver was perfected!!

Cheeky Rabbit

Its all quiet outside...............something must be up..............

Found the culprit...sampling dirt.

Aahhhh..... I didnt do nothing!!

Well......perhaps I did......

Wanna kiss?

Chillin'

The Beanbag is a favourite amongst the boys in this house, whether its for watching tele or just for a sit, it is the best choice.

Chillin with a cool bevvy

Watching footy with Dad

'What do you want to watch now Dad?'

Here comes the rain....

Now when Toby wants to play outside its on with the wet weather gear- coat, pants, boots the lot. Then he is let loose to get into whatever mischief he likes.

Just checking the chook's water

If you leave the gate open - Im off!

Easter 2010

Back at Easter time, Mum and Dad were really busy so we stayed home. It was great fun, we went out the farm and I helped Dad with the sheep.

Lucky the Easter Bunny knew that I dont 'like' chocolate because I got a new bike instead!

Starting it up

Learning how to turn corners

Dad giving me a push start

Goings on in the Excell House.....

Not much has been happening in this house, Steve is busy at work and Toby and I are just cruising along, doing housey things, building a sandpit and making sauce! Our tomato plants have produced a bumper crop and all we could do with them is to make sauce.

Elton John lookalike competition

Toby has a fascination with the camera,

so trying to get shots of his face involve him running at the camera!

More action shots - of course with his volleys on!


Until we have the sandpit completed Toby digs in the dirt whilst chatting to the chooks

"Come on in Mum!"

Super Toby!!

(Just proof that Toby is really a relation of Uncle Nathan)

A near complete sandpit, just need one more load of sand and it'll be full.

Its a hit already with Toby (and Dad)!
