Maia's 1st Birthday Party

Grandma and Granddad

Was harder to get the adults to look and smile at the camera than the kids!

Ella's boyfriend

Ella goes to swimming with a little boy called Max. They have been swimming and going to Kindy Kids together for about 2 years. Max up until about a month ago did not even acknowledge Ella even though she would be excited about seeing him every time. Max now holds Ella's hand during the swimming lesson whenever he needs a bit of comfort!

Dress-ups

Maia

Maia doesn't like to actually touch the grass, except to eat some (which normally makes her sick!).

Bruce

Mum and Dad have some some friends staying over the last few months off and on while they have been getting a unit built. Ella has gotten very used to them being there when we visit, I think she believes they live there all the time now. Every time we visit Bruce has been requested to read a book to Ella (good practice for his first grandchild).

Making custard

Ella enjoys cooking. These photos are with Nanna making some custard for dessert with Pa helping (???).

Beach

We have been taking the girls to the beach for a play in the sand recently. These photos are at Margate, Redcliffe.

Fish and chips

Took the girls out to Morgan's at Scarborough for fish and chips the other night. Maia was impressed with her first taste.

Our new table

We decided our old dining table was finally a little bit small (especially when the girls high chairs take up two of our dining chairs) and splashed out and bought a new one (definitely not on ebay) from Nick Scali. Our old dining table was a wedding present of Mum and Dad's.

Playing with Kia

Helping Daddy

Rob has been doing some garden edging and Ella loves to help Daddy. (The pictures aren't very good, but you can get the gist of what was going on.)

Playdough with Nanna
