What a lovely weekend

We had such a good weekend with lots of relatives coming to Dongara for Elijah's baptism.

Piano Man


We've started lessons early, but there's no pressure on Elijah to be a world renowned pianist. He can play the air guitar if he wants, like his daddy.

Baby play


Kayla, Sam and Elijah are starting to interact more now. They even do role-plays!

First day at school

I took Katie, Sam and Elijah for a surprise visit to Tyler's class while Corinne did the grocery shopping. Katie loved all the kids and enjoyed going to the library with them. Tyler's grade 3/4 class made her feel so welcome and were pretty excited to have babies in their class. I think Katie is going to love school when it's time for her to go.

Corinne came and met us at the school after shopping and was wondering whether she should have been a primary school teacher rather than a nurse.

Happy to be out and about


So drowsy


Once again, Elijah flights sleep on the swing.
This is at a recent BBQ at James and Leanne's house with some other families.

Kayla and I go for walks with our mummies on chilly mornings.

Hello there!
