Party tea

We went to Auntie Julie's for a birthday barbie. It was lovely to be in her beautiful garden.

Birthday zoo outing

Scott had the day off work, so we all went to the zoo for Daisy and Hugo's birthday. Daisy has been wanting to hire a wagon, so finally as a birthday treat she got to be pulled around the zoo in her chariot.

Hugo was very keen on the monkeys

and fascinated by the butterflies. Daisy still hates them. We had to make a hasty exit just after this photo because Daisy started to panic when butterflies tried to land on her.

Birthday girl

Daisy and Scott have a quiet play with Daisy's new lego on birthday morning

Party time

Daisy and Hugo, well mostly Daisy, had an Indonesian party with shadow puppets, music and becak rides.
They got to have a go with the puppets behind the scenes.

And Hugo enjoyed the music

The cake was popular.

Day out

We had a lovely family day out at the Healesville sanctuary.

The nook

This is Daisy's nook, where important arts and crafts activities take place. Hugo is not usually welcome. Daisy has tidied up for him and he's enjoying being allowed in, while Daisy trims blu tac out of the carpet.

Exciting new toy

This is an old toy of Daisy's which ran out of batteries. We finally got round to replacing them. Hugo thinks it's fab.
