Little Monkey, the Second!

Callyn came running to call us and told us Jordy was at the top of the stairs! We ran to check and sure enough she had crawled all the way to the top!

When we got to her we discovered half a mint Aero in her hand (and all over her face). Now I have banned junk food until she turns 1 so I was horrified! But then when we asked Callyn where she got it he told us that he had shared his chocolate with her. I just couldn't be angry because how many big brothers would share a chocolate with their baby sister!!!!! It was such a kind thing to do and we didnt want to hurt his feelings by taking it away! So she had her very first chocolate and enjoyed it tremendously!

Just look at that happy face!

And that one ....

Kleinemond

We spent a lovely day at Kleinemond on Saturday, with my Aunty Betty (my late mom's sister) and her two children, Sean and Bridget, and Bridget's family - Tony (husband) and their kids, Alexandra, Caitlin, Malachy and Isla. Sean was on holiday from New Zealand so it was great to catch up on loads of news! Here he is with Jordy at the lagoon.

Caitlin was such a little helper with Jordy. She played so nicely with her and Callyn just adores Caity as well! Callyn also had fun playing ball with Malachy.

The water was lovely and warm, unlike the sea water which was about 20 m away. There is a sand bank so the river is not running into the sea at the moment.

On our walk back from the lagoon, both babies fell asleep in their mommy's arms and then finished their little nap on the couch!

The whole family except for Tony who was taking the pic!

Isla is 9 days older than her second cousin Jordy but quite a bit taller!

Two beautiful girls!

Yummy, squishy banana!

Happiness!

Gonubie Beach, East London

The tide was low, perfect for Callyn.

Jordy loved the water - her first time in the sea!

The sand was lovely too!

Callyn wanted to know where the Creepy Crawly was! I had to explain that the sea was not a swimming pool!

Umm, this looks good!

Callyn loves his new cap!

Eeugh! This tastes terrible!

Comfortable?

Callyn doesn't really seem to mind where he sleeps!!!!

Good Friends!

One morning, Callyn decided that Jordy needed to sleep in his bed so he closed all the curtains, lifted her up onto his bed, fetched her dummy and blankie and told me Jordy must "Sleep tight"! He lay next to her and covered her up, popped the dummy in and told her to lie still and sleep! Of course she thought this was a game and laughed at him!!!!

Callyn loves taking Jordy for rides but I am not allowed to hold her anymore. I hover behind to catch her if there is a problem but so far, strangely enough, she hasn't fallen out!

Off they go through the pool room.....

And stop for a quick pic.....
