August 2017

  • Mae and Fox really start to develop a relationship. Fox is able to sit and loves nothing more than laughing at his sisters antics....Mae loves nothing more than performing for a captive audience. 
  • We picnic with Daddy on his lunch break.
  • A trip to Kelly Tarltons Aquarium.
  • Mae, Fox and I fly south for a huge couple of weeks. A task I had been absolutely dreading but doing so much organising for too. My sister, Dad and I had to pack up our family home for sale. It was a really tough, physically and mentally draining time. Harder than I had imagined. In between the packing of many boxes, the sorting, deciding and cleaning I tried to capture memories for the children. We explored the garden and sent up more plants for my home in Auckland. 
  • To sweeten the visit we made sure we had time with Grandma Ann and Grandad Kevin. We also spent a couple of nights with Great Nana and Great Pop on their farm.

  • We stayed cosy at home as the weather started to cool down. 
  • Toby replaced a raised vege bed and we extended the bark chips further creating an area for table and chairs.
  • Fox began eating solids! Hurrah.
  • We enjoyed having Poppa here for a visit.

April 2017

  • We went to Auckland Zoo for the day with Aunty Emma and Uncle Roman.
  • Fox really 'woke up' up from those drowsy newborn days. Alert, smiley and happy.
  • We got stuck into the backyard. Creating a bark chip area under the clothesline to rectify the mud problem. We got a bit more painting done on the fence too. 
  • There was of course some sewing and knitting on the go.
  • We spent a most wonderful and magical Easter weekend away at Mathesons Bay, Leigh. A relaxed time in the teeny Plum Tree Cottage. Lots of ocean swims, an Easter Egg Hunt and precious time spent with Mary.
  • Mae got a 'big kid' mattress.
