May 2011

I've been severely neglecting my blog, I can't believe it's been almost a year since I've posted here. So I'm going to try my best to update more often. We took the kids to Fairfield City Farm today. It was a great way to spend a cool Autumn morning. The kids enjoyed it, they got to feed and pat different animals, milk a cow and go for a tractor ride. Funnily enough, the one who didn't really want to go at all, was the one who enjoyed it the most. Here's some pictures from the day.

Craig fed a camel

Hunter did too

Then he made friends with a goat

We saw a little Joey named Snuzzles

Put the kids in the blocks........I think I need one of these for home

Met a mummy Kangaroo, see the Joey in her pouch?

Getting a ride from dad

We met this friendly young Wallaby who Hunter adored, he kept coming back to him and wanted to bring him home

Tatum wanted to meet him too

Ahhhh

A hug from daddy to make it all better

She won't fall for that trick again

Farmer Hunter milking Isabelle the Jersey Cow

Kingston cautiously patting her, he prefers his milk from a carton out of the fridge :)

Mackenzie had a turn too, this was her favourite part of the day

Back to see our friendly Wallaby one last time before we had to leave

I captured Tatum sitting on the back step this afternoon with her pony. She loves to be outside.

Then uh-oh! Kingston left a yoghurt on the coffee table, right where a little bug could find it. Yummy.

The days are definitely getting cooler, but when the sun is out, its lovely to be outside. The trees all look so pretty with their leaves turning red. I snapped this picture at the park the other day, our streets are lined with these trees. It's so pretty.

In other news.....

Kingston got this play dough set for his birthday, and it's really getting a workout.

Tatum is learning to read and write
okay well not really, but she does like to do whatever the big kids are doing

Kingy is mad about Star Wars, so he can't pop bubbles with his hands like other little kids, our little Jedi uses a light saber. It also doubles as a weapon for warding off bedroom monsters as I learnt this week after he had a nightmare and only went back into his room once he had his light saber armed and ready.

Tatum learned to say car this week. Maybe because she loves to ride around in this one out on the patio.
It gives her an interesting hairstyle too.
