A beautiful still and crisp morning for a picnic at Makara beach. It was the busiest we have seen it.

Enjoying the warm winter sun.

Olives love of being involved in everything continues as she helps make pancakes one morning and scrambled eggs the next. If you try doing it without her, she'll quickly drag over a "mummy/daddy" chair and take over.

Olive refused to go in a normal trolley when Daddy had to do a quick run to the supermarket. Luckily the excitement of sitting next to Liony was enough to get her into the double trolley. Hope the interest lasts!

Olive really enjoyed my old stamping playground with Lucas this afternoon. Her confidence has come along with climbing ladders, going down head first on the slide to yelling 'higher' on the swing. She also looked after Lucas when he wandering off by taking his hand and took him back to play.

Day four: sleeping all day and then a owl at night. Pretty tired but isn't she a dream to look at.

Play centre with Daddy. It was fun to see Olive cruising around play centre and getting into everything. It was also great to put a name to the faces I often hear about.

Olives occasional interest in her little sister has led to cuddles, kisses a few pokes and the sharing of baby toys. She seems to be warming up to the idea of having a sibling and apparently has been taking about her baby Iris at playgroup.

We ventured to the zoo on a beautiful day. We got up close to the tiger and Olive loved the creepy crawlies. Iris slept like a baby.

They have arrived! And Olive took it upon herself after the 'blind man' had left to try and put it down from on top of the cabinet. Olive's little chairs seem to scattered all over the house these days as she uses them to get to anything up high.
