Go, Diegos, Go!

It was character dress-up day at Pre-school at the end of last term, and after careful consideration, Alex and Ben decided that they both wanted to go as Diego, Dora's cousin from Dora the Explorer. Unfortunately the costume turned out to be very hard to get. Their panic-stricken mother spent many hours online and on the phone to interstate suppliers, only to find two costumes in exactly the right size at the local toy shop. Hurrah!

Here are our two Diegos with their trusty wildcat friend, Jaguar.

Steve and I are off to Tassie tomorrow (sans children, who are beside themselves with excitement at the prospect of a holiday of their own at Grammy and Gramps' house) to celebrate his 40th birthday. It's sure to be nice and cold there......I'm packing my hat and gloves.

The Lazy Blogger

I was reminded by Tam yesterday that I haven't updated my blog since January. I have been so busy taking photos of other people's families over the past 6 months, that I have taken very few of my own. So here's Alex in desperate need of a haircut, but with some nice gold light. He and Ben have been enjoying pre-school very much this year, and I can't believe that they're off to 'big school' in February. And wee Sam will be 2 in September - he's still my baby though.

Inspired by Celeste's recent run of frequent posts, which I've loved keeping up with, I'll try to be a more conscientious blogger from now on - please leave me a comment to let me know you've been by!

Sammy has just finished eating the biscuit I bribed him with so that I could write this, and now he wants me to sit with him and watch 'Brum' - possibly the most inane children's program ever made. Naturally, he loves it.
