Having some fun at the Flying Fox Cafe

Trick photography...

A bit of photoshopping to have all the cousins in one snapshot..... hopefully we will be able to get the real deal in the not too distant future.

'The Kenny flower bed'

Meg in the jumper Babcia knitted taking a look at the 'Kenny Flower Bed'. This is a flower bed which my folks planted in 2006 when they were out visiting.

Stylish Meg

Meg looking very hip in her white jeans which Olga bought.

Meg's vocab is slowly expanding. She now says baba for bubbles, bah for bird, ball and balloon, car (with a very Ozzie accent!), duck, shoes and suit. She goes mmmmmmmmmmm if you ask her what noise a cow makes and she makes a monkey noise for a dog barking. She is enjoying blowing kisses with both hands at once. This is done with great gusto as Pavarotti would do when thanking a crowd - too sweet!

Autumn sun at Bobbinhead

Definitely no mix up at the hospital!

Cheeky girl!

Cousin Thomas

Meg has a new beautiful cousin - Thomas! Born 28-Mar-2008

Cheesy grin :)

I don't quite recall how this all started, but this is the reaction you get when you ask Meg for a cheesy grin!

Eating (another!) box of sultanas with Babcia. Just how many sultanas can a toddler eat???

Mango Madness

In front of the Queen Victoria

Babcia comes to visit

Babcia came to visit from Mid Feb to Mid March. It was a lovely time that Meg and my mom had to bond. Note the scab on the bridge of Meg's nose...the result of tumbling down some concrete stairs!

Vroom, vroom

Every since Nicholas's visit, Meg has had a bit of an obsession with cars. It is defintely her toy of choice at the moment.
It is amazing just how much she has developed in the past few weeks. Firstly there is no more crawling, only walking. She found her legs a couple of days after A, O and N's visit (10th of Jan to be precise) and hasn't looked back since. She knows lots of her body parts and various other objects. How is it possible for her to get sweeter and sweeter by the day when she is already infinitely sweet!

First bit of craft

Is it a Picasso? Is it a Da Vinci? No it is a Meggie-moo! Mmmmm I wonder just how much she participated in this creation...

1st day at Acre Woods daycare

Meggie is going well at daycare. I am really happy with the staff and the way the centre is run. She does get a little upset when Tim drops her off (thank goodness I don't need to do it!) but it is apparently short lived and is happy for the rest of the day. I am sure she will enjoy socialising and the variety of different activities which she will be exposed to.

Priceless

An extract from an email from Olga.....
A funny story, when I dropped Nicholas off at school this morning, Mary (one of the teachers) said to him, “are you number 1 Nicholas?” and he said “no, Meggie is 1. I am 2.” Too cute, so he definitely still remembers her.

Magical holiday

We had the most awesome holiday with Andrew, Olga and Nicholas. We were so lucky to have them here to celebrate Christmas and Meggie's first birthday and for the cousins to spend some time together. It was indeed a very sad day to see them go....

Taking a splash in Neil and Susan's pool

Party on!

We celebrated Meg's first birthday at a Bicentennial Park in West Pymble. As you can see there was a bit of a ladybird theme. It rained on and off, but we had the food under a shelter so it didn't dampen the spiritis. Meg was a bit overwhelmed by it all and only started chatting in the car on the way home!

Taking a stroll at North Head

Beaching

Meggie has spent a fair bit of time at the beach this summer and is getting used to the whole water, paddling and sand thing. She is pretty chilled when taken in to the water.... lets hope it lasts!
