Super Ben


Ben is testing all boundaries this week. Every gate or piece of duck tape i put up to stop him getting into something, he just works out how to get rid of it or open it and he's away. Gate latches and sticky duck tape are no match for him! What a mission.

Connor has spent his first night camping for 2010. He has gone camping with his Dad, Kelly and her family at Matata. It was freezing last night so hopefully he was all snuggled up.

Looking forward to Mum and Dad coming to stay tonight. Yay.

Time for an update...


Hello, just seen that it has been a few weeks since our last update and quite a lot has happened in the last few weeks.
Connor is back at school now for his 3rd year at Lynmore Primary. He is loving it and has already brought home the class soft toy 'Shadow', who goes home with someone who has been really good. His reading, spelling and maths are pretty impressive and Cam and I are often amazed at the work Connor is able to do, compared to what we were doing in our 3rd year of primary school. Connor has also started up drama lessons this term and he is loving it, he is also continuing with his swimming lessons.
Ben is growing so fast - i think he is having another growth spurt at the moment as he is constantly hungry. He is 9kg now and tall for his age according to plunket. Ben is crawling very confidently now and has learnt to pull himself onto his knees and get to things that are a little bit higher up. His top teeth have been moving in the last few weeks and one of them i see today is just cutting through the skin. Ow. He is also walking very confidently (and fast) when holding our hands so it won't be long till he is walking all by himself. We realised yesterday there is only 2 mths left till his first birthday. Can't believe it!
I will try to post some more videos and photos in the next few days.
Lots of love
