Here are some more pictures from dreamworld. Dylan loved all the animals. I think he picks that up from me. Usually I am the one befriending the kangaroos. But this time it was Dylan who had found himself a little mate. This little Kangaroo was sooo sweet and I think he really did liked Dylan. The tigers were amazing they were just beautiful and sooo big. They looked really well cared for. Dylan had loads of fun on the mushrooms in the garden. That would be right you take the kid to dreamworld and he plays in the gardens...lol. It had just been raining and there was the most beautiful rainbow...the photo doesn't do it any justice. Lily had a good day too. She enjoyed lots and lots of snuggles from everybody and simply enjoyed taking everything in.

DD on the rides at Dreamworld

My Mum and Dad had given Dylan tickets to dreamworld on the goldcaost for christmas. So they thought it would be nice to take him the day before his birthday. We had a wonderful fun filled day. Dylan enjoyed all the rides very much, but he really enjoyed the dodge 'em cars and the vintage cars. It was soooo cute he really thought that he was taking pa for a ride on the vintage cars. He loved it sooo much that he took pa twice and then took me and Nan jan for a spin too. He was pleased as punch with him self as he walked off..with his chest forward ...he was proud of his driving. Nan Rozzy and Dylan had a go on Dorothy's Teacup ride in wiggle world and we also went for a ride in the wiggles big red car. Me and Dylan had heaps of fun on the aeroplanes. We were prentending to shoot everybody like fighter pilots. There was soo much to do and so little time but we managed to squeeze in quite a bit. We saw the native animals, feed the farm animals, saw the tiger show, went on a big old paddle boat ride, caught the train, and much much more. Then as we were leaving we were lucky enough to run into Kenny Koala (The dreamworld mascot). Dylan went really shy and wouldn't have his photo with him. So to lighten the mood Kenny started copying everything that Dylan did and soon with some help from nan he was happy to have his photo taken. I think that dylan had a really wonderful time

DD's 4th Birthday Party

On Sunday we had a little family lunch to celebrate Dylans 4th Birthday. I can't beleive he is 4....he is such a big boy. We had a wonderful day with Aunty Bec, Uncle Ollie, Nan Rozzy and Pa Terry. After Lunch it was time for cake. Dylan picked out the cake himself. He got to choose from all sorts of cakes like Nemo, cars, spiderman....but he choose a sponge cake with fruit on the top. He said "I want the one with seeds on the top (passionfruit) cause thoose seeds are yummy." And he made a really good choice cause it was delicious. We had a wonderful fun day filled with giggles.

Little Dracula

Here are some photos of Dylan dressed up for Halloween. Although we don't really celebrate Halloween over here Dylan's day care had a dress up day and he wanted to go as Dracula. I would have preferred maybe a fireman...bob the builder or something maybe a little more tame. But he really wanted to be Dracula, so i gave in. Doesn't he look freaky. I couldn't look at him the whole day, cause he would freak me out!!

DD Such a big boy

Here are some pictures of Dylan on the morning that Laura called. He has such a cheeky smile doesn't he. In the first picture he is showing off his muscles. He is such a big boy and starts preschool this week. Scary....

New Photos

Hi guys sorry to be slack on the photos.......my bad! I don't really have all that much time to right a novel right now but here are some photos for you all. This is lily the morning that laura called. I took these photos as Laura was on the phone. Isn't she cute. Dylan was still in bed so no brand new ones of him. Love to all jen

Panda Land

Last week a new play gym cafe called Pandaland opened in Noosa. So Jacinta and I took Dylan, Jake and Jet up to see what it was like, and it was awesome. They had everything from guns that shot foam balls, trampolines, bikes, ball pits... you name it. The kids had an absolute ball as you can see in the photo. Me and Jacinta were just able to kick back with Lily and enjoy a coffee and let the kids run crazy so to speak. it really was a great day out.

Nan Jans 71st Birthday

We had Nan Jan come visit and stay with us last weekend for her Birthday. My mum and dad were also up for the day so we had a little birthday afternoon tea for her. Isn't she just amazing. We all enjoyed nan's delicious cooking. She always brings Dylan up some really yummy patty cakes with faces on them. I was going to ring her and tell her not to bring anything..because it was her birthday and she wasn't aloud...but before i got a chance there was a message on my answering machine saying "it's nan here...don't worry about tea cause I have made something for us to have". We loove nans cooking...almost as much as we love nan.

Here we are singing happy birthday to nan. Dylan was just about jumping through his skin to help nan blow out the candles. Later that day nan and Dylan had a big deep and meaningful talk about how Dylan is going to get himself a wise one day. It took nan a while to catch on but he was trying to tell her that one day he was going to get himself a wife. He has trouble saying f's lol. It was just so cute. We all had a good laugh anyway.

We had a really nice visit with nan.. and boy she has still got it. I think I went to bed at around 9pm. But Paul and nan ended up staying up until 3am talking. So we had a lazy Sunday with pancakes for breakfast. I took nan up to have a look at a boys town lottery house that I brought tickets in just up the road. The house was amazing (1.3 million dollars worth). It is drawn on the 19th of December and I am sure that I am going to win it lol. It comes with $60 000 in gold bullion, $10000 in travel, a car worth $50000 and $3000 dollars worth of presents. So if I win everyone is coming to ours for Christmas. Fingers crossed.

Wakeboarding Summer 07

Summer is back and we have been enjoying many a days wakeboarding. It is a really addictive and fun sport. This is the first time I have been able to get into it (as I have been pregnant ever since we got the boat) and I am really loving it. We having been going to Burrumba Dam ( which is about 1 hour north west of us. It is such a great family day out. Me the kids and the girls will set up camp on the banks while the boys go out in the boat and then we will swap and Paul and the boys will look after the kids and Harley will take us girls out to have a go. My goal this summer is to at least attemp to do an ollie.

Here is my new little baby. I haven't got a name for her yet so I am open for suggestions. Pauls wakeboard is pretty much the same as mine but his is black, so he called his excalabar. Pretty funny huh. I haven't actually got a picture of me on the boad as yet.... Paul somehow always forgets to get one. But I am getting up. I am not really at the stage the other boys are at yet. I can pretty much stand up and that is it, but I am still proud of myself.

This is a picture of our mate Harley. He is one crazy man. Harley is our friend that went halves with us in the boat. Paul, Harley and the rest of the boys have just started doing the kickers and sliders jumps at the cable ski park and pretty much every weekend they take the boat for a spin in the river.

Heres Paul doing one of the rail slides. Poor Paul I am yet to get a good photo of him doing a big jump. For some reason every time he goes for a big jump and he catches some big air the camera has a delayed response and I miss the shot. I have a thousand photos of harley doing the jumps but I just can't get one of Paul. I will have to get one soon or he is going to kill me lol.

Here is a prime example of my terrible camera skills. See the jump behind Paul... well he has just landed the jump. Anyways he is doing really well. I have just realized how to post videos so I will have to see if i can get some footage of him... and soon. Love to all!

Lily's 4 months already

My has time gone by...my little girl is now 4 months already. Above is a photo of her enjoying her first taste of food. Mmmmmm farex. Don't you just love the spoon. It is a bendable dragon. So instead of "here comes the aeroplane" it is "here comes the dragon". And as you can tell by the size of her, she has no trouble feeding. She is now weighing in at 7.5 kg.

Here is a more serious lily. I just love this photo. My mum recently went to Kosharmui (not sure if that spelling is right) anyways it is relatively close to Phuket and she brought this gorgeous little outfit back for Lily.

Here Lily is busily rolling back and forth...such a clever girl. Every time she rolls over she looks up at me with as if to say " look at me aren't I clever". And when I give her some praise and tell her how clever she is, she gives me a great big grin. And yes now that she is rolling she has got grandpa hair. She has lost all the hair around the sides... its so cute!

Well love to all from all of us!
