Raspberry Season

 

 

Jade is mostly a very serious young lady, but every day she makes me laugh.  The last couple of days she has come to the realisation that she can blow raspberries, so she does so at every waking opportunity.  Half the time she is just blowing air and the other half the time there are lots of bubbles.

 

Here are some more photos from our silly season.

 

Some pre-Christmas shopping. 
I love how babies can fall asleep anywhere anytime anyhow.

 

 

Nick, Olive, Gen and Archie putting together a gingerbread house.

 

 

 

 

 

David and Gideon spent hours pouring cement and putting together this shed which had 400 screws.

 

Olive and Archie put together a Christmas Eve pizza.  I think this one ended up having a 3 slice thick layer of hot salami.

 

Indian for lunch with Gideon, David and Anne-Marie.  We felt very special as the restaurant opened only for us.

 

Jade hanging out with Grandpa and Aunty Cate.

 

Christmas morning. 
Jade is not so sure about this Christmas business.

That’s not a turkey, this is a turkey!

 

 

 

 

Anne-Marie, David and Cate open presents.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Jade opens her presents…
Or maybe just eats them.

 

 

*Sigh* – it’s all too much for Tyke.
