Just Hanging Out!

It was such a lovely day today that when Hamish came to visit we all went outside to kick the ball.




Cousinly Love!

Hamish teaching Isabella the ins and outs of how to use a mobile phone!



Where is Charlotte?


My First Hair Cut

My hair was starting to get pretty ratty so mum decided that it was time for my first hair cut. I was not too sure about the whole experience and I certainly did not like the cape but once that came off, the textas came out and the tv turned on then all seemed much better!





Amazing!

Last weekend I learnt to walk and only several days later I learnt to walk in my brace too! Mum never thought I would crawl in my brace so this is pretty amazing.


Me and Ankur

Me and Ankur are like two peas in a pod.... He took me to McDonalds and fed me fanta and chips. My mum was not impressed!



Then we went home and he fed me Vodka!! (lucky the alcohol had already been drunk and the bottle was refilled with water)



mwah!



Too Cute!











That's my couch!!

Harvey boy has seemed to take ownership of my couch!! He does look comfy though.




My very own slippery slide!


Beads Galore!





Training for the London Olympics!

Me and Chloe discovered the treadmill and decided to go into training for the 2012 Olympics! I wonder how we will go.....

Gee my mum is slack!

After nearly 2 months of no updates on my blog, mum got sick of everyone picking on her and decided to give the page a well needed update. Over the last 7 weeks I have had a slumber party with my cousin Hamish (several actually), been on a road trip to Adelaide, celebrated my mum turning 30, helped her recover from having her gall bladder removed and much much more! (you know that you can always check the couper's blog page for regular updates too!!!)

The first slumber party! Hamish came to stay on the night of his mum's birthday to give her the best present ever......peace and quiet!
For once in our lives we were actually sitting still and enjoying our lunch!
Cheeky monkey!
Hamish acting the goat with my dad when he was meant to be in bed!
COMPUTER NERD!
OUR ROAD TRIP TO ADELAIDE
In July mum and Aunty Sam decided to pack us kids up and take a road trip to Adelaide for several weeks to help Ajax celebrate his 60th Birthday. Goodness only knows what they were thinking but to their surprise Hamish, myself and Bella all travelled very well.
This was a very rare moment when both of us were actually asleep. I don't like sleeping in the car..... I only slept for 20 minutes on the entire trip there! Mum says that I am a little bugger....
We stopped off at the farm for a night and this is me drinking my milk on the first morning of our holiday....
I woke everyone up very early.....
so early that you could not even see out the glass doors yet cos it was still dark!
The view when the sun came up!
AT DAWN'S HOUSE
When we got to Dawn's house it was fun times after fun times.....
Hamish and I sitting on my favorite place....
the window sill!!
How pretty does Hamish look? He loved wearing Tessa's princess head band. It was all fluffy!
Isabella just went with the flow...
THE BEACH
Aunty Sam did not have one of her better ideas when she decided that we should take a drive to the beach. It was so windy and cold that we only stayed long enough to get a few photos. That totalled about 2 minutes!!
Looks much calmer that it actually was!
Me all rugged up! Boy it was cold!
MARK COMES TO VISIT
Later in the day Mark came to visit us. He was lots of fun cos he came outside to play with us!
THE LAUNDRY BASKET
Who would have ever thought that I could have so much fun pushing a laundry basket around the house.
BATH TIME!
Too cozy in the bathtub! No room for Bella...
A VISIT WITH JACOB
This was the look that I gave mum when she told me that we were going to visit Jacob.....
but we had loads of fun!
He is such a beautiful boy! (pity he barracks for the Crows...we could have had something some day! sigh...)
VEGEMITE
A VISIT FROM THE WESTBROOKS!
Kate and Hunter
Back at the beach but this time it was slightly better weather.
I preferred the stairs to the water! Weirdo!
HUNTER DODSON
Mum and I went to visit Leonie, Brett and Hunter. Mum and Leonie had a few too many glasses of wine (and port!) that she forgot to take some photo's. This was the only one that was taken..... it is me teaching Hunter to unpack the cupboards and play with all the tins!
AJAX'S 60TH BIRTHDAY PARTY
The morning of the party Nana and Uncle Drew flew over to Adeladie to help us all celebrate. A few snaps before the festivities began....
IT ALL BEGINS.....
Ajax's yummy cake!
The birthday boy!
A family photo (minus a few people!)
I love Nana
I parked my butt here for the night..... right in the doorway. Typical!
THE MORNING AFTER
I just know that Nana was excited to have all us kids in bed with her!
ON THE WAY HOME....A VISIT WITH MY COUSINS
On the way home from Adelaide we stopped back on the farm. Before dinner mum took me into town to visit my cousins, Emy and Laila.
This is my Uncle Danny. I used to be scared of him....can't imagine why.
Me and Emy
Me, Emy and Laila
ROAST LAMB
For dinner we had roast lamb and I took great delight in eating loads of it!
Playing hide and seek after dinner....sitting here with Hamish and it was pitch black!
FEEDING THE SHEEP!
The morning before we came home Hamish and I went with Kym to feed the sheep

Not so keen on that..... Will try again next visit!

Mum has been so slack since all of these photo's were taken and has not really used her camera since. For images from her birthday, the mornington market experience and much more please refer to the couper blog. Stay tuned for more updates shortly...... I promise!
