Family time - June 2013

We took the kids to the Natural History Museum during the holidays. They loved the big shark's jaw! All 3 of them were pretending to be sharks!

Then we had some lunch afterwards, which is always an adventure...

We had a really cold spell at the beginning of June, and one Sunday we had hail that looked like snow! We came out of church to this!

Josh throwing snowballs...

Our lawn at home was also covered in hail!

Three beautiful children!

Josh had 2 friends over for a play date, and all the kids had their faces painted, so I had 3 Spidermen and a butterfly.

Whenever there was clear weather the kids wanted to be outdoors, and they especially enjoyed the playground at the school.

Caleb wanted to sit in Hannah's car seat, and would you believe Hannah still fits into his! So now we let them swap every now and again...

They can play so nicely together at times...

Josh enjoys taking photos, so here are some that he took. They don't all come out great, but some really do!

A video of Hannah reading a story to Caleb. And watch his face... He's starting to realise that you should smile for cameras, but it's so cute at this stage!

Hannah moments - June 2013

Luke Smith, one of Josh’s friends, has a crush on Hannah! One morning when I dropped off the kids Luke gave Hannah a shy little smile and wave when we were in the boys’ class. When I asked Hannah’s teacher about it she confirmed that she’s noticed that Luke is very considerate of Hannah on the playground, and pays special attention to her. It’s so cute! But Andrew is already going to have to start watching his little girl J

Dressing up like a princess!

And such character in this face! Her butterfly face from school.

She has started mixing up rhymes, sometimes by accident but other times on purpose. Like “Winnie the Pooh went up the hill to meet Jesus.”

While we were in Joburg Wayne said, “I’ve just had a discussion with Hannah. In fact it’s very easy to have a discussion with Hannah about anything!” That sums her up quite well – she’s happy to talk about anything you care to talk about. And she is just so funny to watch when she’s talking!

What a little madam!

She thought it was a big joke running around with a cloak

On a Saturday morning she came in quietly and asked, Do you want to wake up now? She said that Caleb was missing me, and when I asked, she said that she was also missing me. Then she put my slippers on for me and fetched my glasses, and then held my hand to help me walk to the lounge. She can be so sweet at times!

Just so cute!

She really does love her babies. This isn't the first time she's fallen asleep holding one of them.

I think she was hopping or skipping or something here... She wanted me to take a picture.

She said this was a heart in the world.

Her attempts at writing.
