3. February - July 2014










1. Annabelle, Olivia, Me, Lucy and Matilda out for brekkie on mothers day.
2. face painting at Olivias kindy fun day.  I actually did the face painting on the day..... dont know that I will make millions from my efforts but all the kids seemed happy enough.
3. I love this photo.  Olivia leading Lucy on a walk we went on after a train ride.  She is such a great big sister - especially when it is just the three of us at home (when the others are at school).  Olivia really looks out for Lucy and tries to help me all the time.
4. Lucy enjoying the climbing equipment.  I think she is about 20 months old at this point.  She has extremely good balance and is very very determined when a climbing challenge is put in front of her.
5. Lucy enjoying her icecream!
6. And on her first bike ride with her new 'hat'
7.  And, well, everyone else reads before bedtime, so only natural that Lucy does too.  She often falls asleep like this.  It really brings home how much they mimic and learn from those around them. 
8.  Bathtime shennanigans.  Matilda was singing and passing the microphone around.  Since she has started jazz dancing her confidence to do things like this seems to have grown.  She had us all in giggles, and the kids were all up and dancing to her singing.  Very fun night.

Also, Lucys language has just taken off.  She is starting to string 3-4 words together and can almost always get her message across.  Some of her favourite things to say.....
 'hey you, go way'
'undies'
mono (motorbike)
no mummy, no mummy, no mummy (getting more desperate as she goes - almost like I am about to do something horrible.  Most of the time I am just picking her up, or something very non threatening).
