NZ

well its been ages, had had slow computer probs and then been SOOOOOOO busy that ive had no time to get any pics organised and on here!
anyway, up north was awesome, we've had great weather and the wedding was BEAUTIFUL!!! kids having huge fun mucking round together.
heading back to mum and dads tomorrow, a night in taupo tomorrow to break the trip up as we have found out rubes gets car sick! ick!!!!

heres a few pics to update, zeke is starting to smile and 'talk' its so cute! he is also a little boombablatala now while rubes has lost more weight thanks to a vomiting bug which kept the whole house up all night execpt for zeke who slept on thru!!!

2 weeks to go and then home....

Xmas at the beach

so then we moved our party to the beach, met up with lots of jays family, had morning tea with his grandparents there before heading off in the boats to a little island near by.
i managed to have a gall stone attack totally out of the blue so missed out on most of the morning tea part. ick, dont have one of those attacks if you can help it, they hurt like the dickens!!!!

while there seemed to be rain showers all around we never actually got wet and had really nice weather. the water was beautiful and rubes spent most of the time in there!everyone mucked round on the boats and various 'playthings'!

great day all round, cant wait to have another xmas next tuesday in NZ!!!!!!!!!!

expect to be crazy busy in the morning with all the jobs i have to do before leaving! that reminds me that i must go attend to the washing right now!

xmas morning

well we opened our presents at home this morning....

i think rubes was a little puzzled as to why he was getting all these presents for no apparebt reason!

Zeke slept right thru it all totally oblivious!!!

Rubes loves the bike but cant rememeber to only peddle forwards... we'll be working on that once we get home again!!!

Christmas Eve.....

well..... here are my wee boys on xmas eve.....
hahaha, im not sure if rubes was squeezing zeke extra tight to make him so cross eyed or if it was the flash or if his eyes just arent working properly yet... too bad.... and as for the ones of zeke on his own.... he kept looking at me like, dont you know im too small to hold this yet mum, so im not gonna do it!!!! not the prettiest pics but.... oh well... i tried!!!!!!!!!!!!!

only 2 more sleep and then NZ here we come.....

so excited!

love to all,

have a very merry christmas day, no doubt there will be some more pics on here tomorrow!

this morning he went out and got some sand.
Rubes is VERY EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!

coping...just

hi

well mum has gone home now, zeke had bits chopped off, rubes managed to cry for the ENTIRE morning the day after mum left, jay vomited all last night and had today in bed still too sick to even lift a kid up and i was awake every hour of the night between vomiting and excess feeding!!!!!

life is wonderful!!! hahahaha!

so havent had much of a chance to get some pics on here esspecially as mum and i forgot to 'fix' all our pics up and as a result she has none of my pics and i dont have any of the last few days off her camera!!! dumb!

Anyway, i took the kids to the park this morning to try and give jay a sleep so theres a pics of that, one of zeke looking cute in bed and then we took rubes to daniels local church xmas thing, he invited us, cos they had a petting zoo which was GREAT FUN for rubes as you will see by the pics! zeke was looking pretty cute too trying out he 'big boy' seat of the pram!!!!

it may onlybe 8pm but im off to bed......

night!
