Princess Molly

 

Halloween Party

Today at playgroup we had a fancy dress party to celebrate Halloween. Look at our beautiful princess!

Max was taking in all the fun decorations

and gave them a big thumbs up.

There was still time for playing with the toys. Thomas the Tank engine is a new favourite.

Superman (AKA Bailey) made an appearance

There was party food including cakes with VERY blue icing

OK everybody, say CHEESE!!

Play Date in the Park

Today Max had a playdate with Alice and Izzy. We went to a beautiful park in Summer Hill with an enclosed playground. While the mums and bubs relaxed in the shade of a tree, Molly ran herself ragged in the playground and made lots of new friends.

Max made a few moves on Alice.

"Heeeeey! How do you like my women?" says Max.

The babies had a tummy time conference. I wonder what they were plotting?

Higher Daddy, Higher!!

A stop at the swings is becoming a regular feature of our morning walks. Fun for all the family!

 

Hold on Noddy, I'll Drive.

 

Pleeeeeease Mummy, Can I Keep Him??

Max's First Shaving Lesson

Yummy Toes!!

First Haircut

It's been a long time coming but Molly finally had her first haircut yesterday (she is 2 years and 4 months old).

It was done by one of the lovely mums from playgroup who is a hairdresser. I think it helped that Molly knows her quite well. That and the bowl of Tiny Teddies.

She was very well behaved but wasn't willing to wear the cape for very long, probably because it was coming between her and those Tiny Teddies!

Of course she looks just beautiful! And now she can see too!

Getting Fit

I have decided to stop griping about my involuntary early mornings (usually 5am) and make the most of them. We invested in a twin jogger pram so I can get out and about walking with the kids and shed some kilos. Yesterday was our first morning walk to the lake with the new contraption. Here we are just heading out....

and here is Molly feeding the ducks at the lake.

We went again this morning, so far, so good!

We Love Tummy Time ... at last!

Bumbo Fun

Hey! You're pretty cute!

What are you lookin' at??

Busy Evening at Home

Tonight while we were finishing dinner Peter called from Vienna. While Daddy was talking to him Molly had her own pretend conversation with Uncle Peter and Aunty Anna...

...and then got to talk to Uncle Peter for real.


Molly managed to fill up her sticker chart tonight by using her manners


And was rewarded with a lollipop which she decided to eat in the bath


Max watched on and wondered when it would be his turn in the bath.



He was ready to fight for it


and this was Molly's reaction.

All about Benjamin

Graham, Debbie and Benjamin visited us yesterday and as usual the two cousins had a great time playing together. Everything Benjamin did, Molly had to do immediately after. A serious case of hero worship there!

"I love my new cousin!" Ben told his mum. From the look on Max's face I think the feeling is mutual.

OOOO! Toes!

Big Girl's Bed

Our little girl is growing up way too fast!

She is so excited to be in her big girl bed.

What??

Look who can hold his own dummy!
