i couldn't resist

here is a picture of Dante that was taken by Emma this past sunday... its a classic Dante picture - eating, as always, making a mess, as always, and scrunching up his face - which he does all the time, both when he is happy and when he is angry (often haha)

Dante's First Birthday!

First birthdays are fun, but i think they are a little bit over-rated... as a mum its great to plan a party, bake and decorate a cake etc etc but there is none of the excitement and anticipation from the soon to be 1 year old which would make it so much more special... That being said though, Dante had a ball at his party - he got to eat cake and he got lots of cuddles and attention from everyone!

Heres a few pictures, not many as my memory card was full ggrr (hoping to get some more snaps soon!)




a very home-made cake :)


Dante enjoying his first piece of cake


he loves his new phone


lots of presents! thanks everyone!

March Madness

March has been busy for us, and especially for Dante!


Waiting at the door for Rob to get home from work...


Sleeping in his playpen, exhausted from his (early) morning play time!




Learning to play the piano with Aunty Nicole




climbing, climbing and MORE climbing!




and learning to throw the tennis ball for the dogs!


Michelle and her belly

I think my sister looked SO beautiful when she was pregnant... (she looks absolutely stunning already now about 2 months post baby)... here is a pic of mum and us girls on the day of Michelle's Baby Shower



and a picture of her little Eli (about 5 weeks old)

Yum Yum Yuck!



Just learning a few things on Picasa -ie how to do photo collages... (wasting time when i should be doing some BAS bookwork... bleh)
