Sunny Saturday

Saturday was a lovely day with lots of things going on. It was my day to sleep in, YAY! I slept till 9am, wow! The boys (Moses included) started their day with a bit of Rugby action over in the reserve. This was my chance to whip round and tidy the house. While Maia was having her morning nap I got together a bit of lunch to take out with us and see where the road would take us while we were on our nursery hopping adventure (we really only ended up going to one). Even though I had a sleep in I was kinda pooped when we got home!

Saturday morning hairdo, Maia's wild mane before it gets tied up.

This family were nice enough to share their bread with Nathan so he could feed the ducks with them

A spot near the water in Greenhithe, somewhere to sit in the sun for a while and have some lunch


At a local nursery checking out what plants and trees we want around the house. A mission we've been meaning to do for ages. We are definately not greenthumbs but do want to get more plants around preferably ones that don't need much looking after.

Next mission was operation haircut. I've been letting Nathans hair grow back hoping the curls would kick back in, but they haven't, so off it goes again.

The reward for enduring having his haircut, his favourite, gingerbread man.

Meeting up with the Klint-Pedersons

On Sunday we met up with Carsten and Michelle and their beautiful girls Emma and Annabelle. They are over from Brisbane with Carsten working here in Auckland for the week and Michelle and the girls driving down to New Plymouth to visit her family. We had lunch at the house they're staying at before venturing out to show them some sights later in the afternoon.

Nathan and Emma becoming good buddies straight away

Lunching out in the Sun, better than braving a cafe with two toddlers and two bubbas

Down at Mission Bay, the sun was still shining but man it was getting cold! Us locals only had our T.Shirts on and should have known better!

Maia and Annabelle all rugged up, they've got it sussed!!
