7 Months Old

Well Nathan is seven months old today. He seems like a little boy now, not so much of a baby. I guess he's still our baby, but it's cool to see him growing and doing new things like... He feeds himself his avocado sandwiches for lunch and he is rolling over and getting his early stage crawling styles sussed out. Check out the video's of him in action.

The Winner Is...

Hey Everyone,
Thanks for checking out our Blog and for your comments and emails. We have a winner for Dean's 'Where in the World' competition. My cousin Ben in Sydney is the clever cookie who guessed Mt Rangitoto. Way to go benny, you're in the running mate. Feel free people to just have a guess, my first guess was some volcano in Hawaii, so I was way off. We'll let you know when the next one is up.
Here's our winner for this week...
Ben Erickson and his lovely girlfriend Shae

Where in the World?

Hello kiddies, welcome to Dean's weekly geography lesson. Try to guess where in the world this Google Earth picture is taken from. First person with the correct answer will be awarded "student of the week" bragging rights. The best student at the end of the year will win NZ$50 to be donated to a charity of their choice. How about that? Answers must be specific, and Dean's decision is final. Leave your answers in the comments section.

Where in the world is this???

Nathan the Jolly Jumper

The Jolly Jumper is a great way to keep him occupied somtimes when he's getting a little grizzly, it always puts a smile on his face. Notice the two new top teeth that have added to that smile, and to the grizzlyness :-) 6th October 2005.

Nathan's Trip to the Mount

Our latest trip to the Mount was in early September for 10 days. It was a lovely break for me with mum taking Nathan off my hands any opportunity she had, which meant a few sleep ins, which was nice. Poppa took on evening bottle duty and walks in the garden discovering Nathans facination with trees, leaves and flowers. We went to the beach, walked around the Mount and visited Uncle Reid and Luke in Ohope.
