30 April 2012


Double the cuteness
When the boys play with their hanging toys.



29 April 2012


In preparation for Mummy's up and coming Prince concert
We try the babies on a bottle. Bastien takes a few mls before he knows what's happening
But then cries bitterly, spits it out and wants only his beloved milk, the usual way.



28 April 2012


A little late afternoon walk around Field of Mars
Where Bastien falls asleep in Bandoo's arms...

27 April 2012


So happy toge-ther....



26 April 2012


Happy hour
(4-7pm).



25 April 2012


Basie and Mummy
Sharing a drink (of sorts)
At the Hunters Hill Club
For ANZAC Day.



24 April 2012


Bastien sleeping under his softy blankie.



23 April 2012


A tickle under the chin
Always gets a chuckle!

22 April 2012


A picnic at Putney Park
Where Bandoo, then Joe, take turns
Wheeling restless bubbies to afternoon slumber...



21 April 2012


Bastien is so happy
And gives the sweetest smiles
As well as the funniest giggles
When he's tickled around his neck.



20 April 2012


Seconds after being caught in the act ~

Munching on his brother.



19 April 2012


The chaos of our morning Bali Bed

Where Matai requests DeeBix at 6:43am,
Miro wants to snuggle under the quilts and play with Mummy's hair,
And the twins want milk...perhaps some upright cuddles... but definitely milk!

18 April 2012


Torrential downpours are good for ~
Crying desolately until one is picked up,
And diligently practicing rolling.



17 April 2012


Aunty Julie over
Means plenty of cuddles
As the rain pours down outside.



16 April 2012


The boys are getting higher and higher when 
They're kicking on their tummy...
Rolling over is usually a horrible shock!
And we have to sit them back up like this to restore equilibrium.


15 April 2012


Bastien snuggles in for a cuddle
With the lady of the moment
At Bandoo's farewell party.

14 April 2012


Bastien helps Diego
Celebrate his birthday.



13 April 2012


Wandering 'round the garden
Trying to stave off the screaming hours...

12 April 2012


After buying Bastien's brand new bed
And before the crazy knife sets
We enjoy yummy lunch in a cafe.



11 April 2012


Bandoo cuddles
When bedtime gets too tiring for Bas!



10 April 2012


Back home in his own sweet bed.



9 April 2012


The twins in their favourite respective activities...
Lowan sucking a sheet
And Bastien examining his powerful fist.



8 April 2012


Bastien snuggles up to Bandoo
On a wild and windy walk
A few hundred metres up the track
And then back again.



7 April 2012



Morning in the sunshine
While the bigger boys search bunnies...

Later on it's tabletop tummy time in the cafe!

We next go for a walk, and picnic on chicken
Where the subtle yellow
Infiltrates us, bringing happiness...








6 April 2012


After a peaceful trip to Crackenback where the twins are perfect angels...

Bastien enjoys an even more calming big bath 
(Particularly as Miro and Tai have already left it!)

5 April 2012


Today the boys don't want to sleep
Unless they're rocked to meet it.


4 April 2012


Bastien and Lowan have discovered
Their delicious doudous
And vie for the softest of softies.


3 April 2012


All content in their favourite place to be...
Lying back watching their hanging toys,
Occasionally grabbing them!


2 April 2012


An Autumn picnic with the brothers
And Aunty Julie, bearing spongecake,
Sitting in the dappled shade and bouncing...

1 April 2012


Bandoo keeping watchful eye
Over the sleeping babies
At Brendon's farewell family BBQ.


31 March 2012


Evenings have suddenly become painful
With Bastien and Lowan refusing to go to bed
But too tired to enjoy themselves partying!


30 March 2012


Bastien in Bandoo's arms
Is a contented bub.


29 March 2012


With Miro at school, and Tai with Din,
The twins have more arms than babies for once
And enjoy a peaceful lunch at Woolwich
In the dappled shade, with both grandmas.
