Chondelle is engaged

About a month ago my cousin Chondelle got engaged to Simon. It was really exciting news for all of our family. They have been together for a fair while, been on exciting overseas holidays and they live together in Tom Price so I guess it was bound to happen sooner rather than later... In any case it was fabulous news. Mum, Nanna Laurel, Noah and I caught up with Chondelle in Perth last Friday for breakfast. It was so great to see her and hear all about the proposal and wedding plans (or lack there of hey Chonny)!! I am really happy for my cousin as I know how exciting and special this time will be for her. Even if you don't think it now Chondelle you will look back on this time as being amazing. Congrats on your engagement, your new house and the new outrageous bling (I am jealous to the max girlfriend).



This was about the only time Noah was seated for the entire breakfast experience. He was tired, naughty and in a foul mood that morning. The next day Nanna Laurel asked Aunty Julie what Chondelle said about Noah's behaviour. Chondelle said that he was just a little restless. Well Chondelle that is a nice way of putting it; I myself would have used more colourful language to describe his behaviour. Hopefully next time you will see him in a different light.

These photos were taken on Monday before the down pour (i.e. lousy 5.5ml of rain) on Tuesday. Beggars can't be choosers I guess!!!







Feed me

If Richard or I don't get Noah his breakfast within 30 seconds of him getting out of bed he helps himself to the cereal. Sometimes he gets a bowl and sometimes he doesn't!!!!

Noah's pen friends


Noah receives more mail then Richard and I combined. It is so cute when he gets letters from people he knows. He has received postcards from all over the world, bits and pieces of art from friends and he gets lots of emails from his Nanna's. The picture above is from his little friend Olivia who now lives in Melbourne. Olivia is Roger's granddaughter and they have just started to send each other pictures. So cute!!!!

Perth zoo




Noah watched some big kids climb up onto these bricks so he thought he would copy them. The big kids could easily jump off when they had finished playing but Noah couldn't quite handle the 1 metre drop off. Noah fell flat on his face and.................

Ended up with a fat top lip. He bawled his little eyes out.



It was a nice day but overall it wasn't as good as I thought it would be and I am not exactly sure why.




Some random photos




This entire outfit is from Noah's cousins Jasper and Austin. They give Noah so many of their clothes which they have outgrown. We are so lucky to have an endless supply of totally gorgeous hand-me-down clothes.


This face tells it all!!! Getting dried off after a shower would have to be Noah's least favourite thing at the moment. He hates it. The more fun I try to make it the more he hates it.
