Baby Chicks

We are the proud carers of 2 new baby chicks. They are sooooooooo cute and the kids just love them. Trying to get them to love them just a bit less is the trick. Piper especially wants to carry her chick, Feathers, around all the time but luckily she understands they need a nap every now and then so I can give them a breather. Tried taking some photos this morning but after the birthday my camera is outta battery so will have to wait to get some new ones before I can share the chicks with you all.
Other than that its ANZAC day today so not doing too much. Might take the kids to see a movie as we have tickets that expire this month. Other than that Dave needs some down time as he's been working very long hours.

Princess Piper's 3rd Birthday

Dora rules!!! It was a wonderfully Dora party that was thoroughly enjoyed by all. Piper's smile was on her face the whole time. Her favourite part was blowing out her candles and having her friends come to her place. Lachie's favourite was jumping on Piper's new trampoline (well a shared pressie really) and helping her open her presents. Mum's favorite part was Nanny was there to help and give fabulous support and that the birthday cakes turned out just as they should. Daddy's favourite was coming home from work to find all he had to do was socialise and enjoy the party. Happy Birthday Piper xxxx

Holiday fun!!!

Hi all hope you have had as restful and fun time as we have had over the Chrissy/New Years period. We have had a houseful for about a week, the last of our guest heading back to their homes this morning. Here's some photos of what we got up to, at the kids museum constructing buildings, at the train museum seeing the Thomas the tank engine exhibition, excavating dinosaur bones and sliding down the grassy slope.

Swimming

The kids have just finished up their swimming lessons for this year and are doing really well. Piper is jumping in and getting herself back to the side and out of the pool and here's a sneak peak at Lachlan's progress.

And the Silly season is Continuing!!

Just what do the Norton's get up to for after dinner tricks??? Tonight it was the ol' spoon on the nose. Kept us amused for an embarrassingly long time, Piper is particularly adept at it, Mum was pathetic!

Let the silly season begin

Last night we officially started the Christmas festivities with the kids Christmas party at their daycare. Despite the heavy rain it was a great evening complete with an African drummer, a dance performance with Lachie and Piper showing their groove thing, face painting, Spiderman jumping castle and of cause Santa. All the children received a lovely book from the centre and a good time was had by all. Tonight Aunty Tan has babysitting duties while we go out for my work Christmas dinner. And then the social engagement keep flowing. Just love it!!!

Hope all is well and happy your end.

here's the first of my Merry Christmas greetings,
