Wow.. nearly a month has gone by.

Well, she waited to walk but now you would think she had been doing it forever! She is also stamping her feet, trying to run and jump. She idolises Riley and tries to copy him at all times (even the things we don't want copied...).

Here she is carrying his lunchbox. She likes to take it into childcare for him. She also insisted on wearing his superman costume this morning. She calls for Riley when she wakes up... it is very cute even though Riley can be a rough big brother, she keeps coming back for more. Her favourite saying is "aww... mannnn..." and her vocabulary is growing quicker than her hair.

We went to visit the family in ChCh and it was a great success. The kids were excellent and we were so proud of their behaviour. They showed their excellent characters and enjoyed themselves. Riley loved the steam train and tram at Ferrymead as well as the planes and trains in the museums. We went out the the farm and there is a photo of the cousins that were present at the time which is a nice memento. The kids travelled beautifully at night for the first time so we feel far more optimistic about travelling.. just wait until it is dark!
