The Cutest Bath Baby!

Here is Lucia looking super cute in the bath!

Family Gym

Bella and Zach are both doing family gym this term. Bella's style has really improved lately. She's working towards her level 2 badge. Zach has also improved in confidence! Here are my little monkeys doing handstands together!!!

Lately, Bella spends most of her time inside swinging on the bannister. She has very good arm muscles to show for it!

Here are some more photos from last month of the kids enjoying family gym.

The School Playground!

Here are Bella and Zach on the Endeavour School Playground!

Bella's Ballet Exam!

Bella passed her ballet exam!!! We thought she would as she said she did it perfectly and her teacher was glowing explaining how awesome all the girls were in the exam.

Here she is with her certificate and her new ballet bag from Nanny. Lucia thought it was a  real tutu and as soon as she saw it she started taking off her clothes trying to climbing into the bag. She was pretty happy when we hung it around her neck so that she looked like she was wearing a tutu.

Cleo and Lucia

Last weekend we also got to finally meet Cleo! It's taken 13 months! Cleo is the baby of my friend Eleanor (from school) and her partner Matt. She is a super lovely baby! Lucia and Cleo got on so well and were really cute together. When I asked Bella what she liked best about her weekend she said "watching Cleo and Lucia to play together".

The little mischief makers were always on the move so it was really hard to catch a good picture of them together but at least we got some!

MOTAT

Last weekend we went to MOTAT in Auckland with Kate, Carlos and their little boy Lucien. Zach was particularly excited to see the old fire engines and Bella liked the laser maze. Lucia loved everything as it was all new and exciting!!!

Lucien thought Bella was a real fairy. It was cute watching him reach out to touch her hair like she was magical!

School Disco

Bella had her first Endeavour School Disco on Thursday night! The theme was "under the sea". Bella went as "Shannon the Ocean Fairy" as that is the series of books she is currently reading at breakneck speed. She had a pretty sea shell necklace and a dolphin wand that she made. The disco was a bit daunting with 200 kids in the dark with glow sticks. I was on the door as a pirate!
