Farm Fun!

Last weekend we spent at the farm but before we ventured back for a visit,Lexie got to spend a whole week there without us thanks to Aunty Relle and Alara who were passing though on their way there.
Abit of family fun before she goes
It was bring a friend and dress up like angels at calisthenics's for Lexie, so thankfully La La was able to join her and of course provide the spare outfit
We made it to the farm and spent Saturday morning with Matt,Kara,Jack and new lil Heinrich Will.
Even though it was abit wet and freezing it didn't stop Jack and Lexie from playing outside
Matt and Nath tree planting
Our new little nephew Will lsaac Heinrich
Saturday night all the family were over for dinner
and no better time to get the picture with all the grandie's
oh what kaos...
Mitchell got to bath on the kitchen bench,but not sure he liked all the attention
La La lego finger's
Sunday night and we all headed to Aunty Merry's and Uncle Glen's for dinner. Another perfect time to meet another new member.Thomas.
Such a cute little boy
He's not too sure about Narelle by the looks
Monday morning and Aunty Carolyn came over for morning tea.
Who could resist this face??

Time in Sydney!

Well it was just over a week later and we were on the road again.This time to Sydney. Nathan had a conference on in the city during the week but it gave us a good chance to visit family and introduce our newest member.
Morning time was "feeding time at the zoo"
Relle always has great plans for the day and some of the activities included lunch at a cable ski place that had awesome jumping pillow
(for all ages)
Uncle Sami's first cuddle,such a natural
Lexie and Alara did everything together,twins,even fought together.hahaha
Mitchell of course just sat and watched all that was happening but did let us know he was around from time to time with his new noise's
"come hither mother dearest,l have soiled my trouser's"
Love's the camera
or does he??
Feeding time again for the "twins"
La La was keen to have cuddles as much as Mitchell would let her.
Aunty Ruth and Uncle Bill came over for dinner and was wonderful that she could meet her 26th reason for being a "great aunt"
She was great in Lexie's eye's as she had painted this beautiful picture for her
Whilst we ate the girl's watched a movie,kept them very well amused
too well at time's,we couldn't break the trance.
We went out to dinner to the boat club and what a night of entertainment,it was line dancing night,the girls loved sitting at the door watching.
Girls even got their own table to destroy
Next day-swimming lesson's and Aunty Ruth came to watch Lexie.She even went one better and put Mitchell to sleep for me
Lexie with every floating device possible attached
l think she has just realised she is the only one with them on
Every step she got more confident
Yay!we getting the hang of it
and a proud moment of literal "release" from Relle when she could do it herself. Thanks Relle for your patience.

Last day and down to the river with the bike's for some last minute fun
No visit is complete without Lucho stopping by for a play! Thankyou Sami and Relle for being so hospitable!!!

Our Big Trip-Wk 2

After our time in Qld we heading back down to Moree to spend the week with Mum and Dad. They had time off which was fortunate so we got to do alot together. Nathan even scored a trip to Lightning Ridge with Dad, but first l got to spend mother's day with my mum!!
Mother's Day and off to our special mother's day lunch at the RSL. Lexie being the helper for the day and pushed Mitchell's pram for me
...and even took it upon herself to wear all our sunnie's, along with her own of course
No one goes past free champa's darling, well l did but for feeding reason's
Poppy and his lil mate!
Home after our lunch and Lexie must have been worn out with all her helping. Rest time on the couch and this is what we find her doing.....
princess or what???
We made a chilli day trip to Armidale to see the "Smith Jnr's" and celebrate Javan's birthday early and for them to meet Mitchell
Lexie with her Moree friend Amelia "Milli" Mitchell.She is a delightful child of 6 and one of her older brother's,Cody, was sitting next to Javan above. Lexie fell in love with them both and l can see alot more play date's now when we go back
Little Mitchell was always happy to sit and watch amongst all this moving around. Isn't he cute!
A couple of days before we left,Tams and the boys along with Lindsay's mum,Ellen,decided they had not had enough of us and came to Moree to visit.So we waited patiently in the drive way for them and then.................
it was on...go go go and mess mess mess was the backyard
Ryan got to ride Poppy's old toy car,
Mitchell got lots of Aunty Ellen cuddles.
Now it was Tamara's birthday whilst she was visiting,so Zachy thought he would organise something... "l will book a table at the Chinese restaurant for mum!"
"Shhh lm on hold,they checking if they have room."
"Yay! they have room!!!"
"Under Poppy Smith thanks,see you soon"
Happy Birthday Mummy!!!
Early morning and it was Shaun the Sheep time for all the kids
Then time for a play outside and the old girl to blow out her candle's,
l think maybe the boy's thought that their mum may run out of puff blowing out her birthday cake and called for Poppy's big blower.hahaha
All enjoyed it though,very nice thanks "greens cake mix"
End of play and getting ready to all pack up and go our separate way's,not before a few call's on the banana phone!!! Thank you Mum and Dad for the Moree Madness!We love you both heap's
