Having picked a beautiful pig-face for Mummy...



24 November 2012


Exploring the rocks and wilds of Jervis Bay.



23 November 2012


In a puzzle-craze!
We cover the whole table!



22 November 2012


Just watchin' TV...
Loungin'...



21 November 2012


Caught in the playground
Walking around holding hands... :)



20 November 2012


Watching the ferries move in
And the cruise ships move out
From Nanna's toaster apartment.



19 November 2012


The best playground toy
In the world!



18 November 2012


Miro is enthralled by cousin Joey's amazing creme brulees...
But after all that slavering, prefers the chocolate cheesecake!

Later on, it's to the garden for some late afternoon ball games,
Where it's time for snuggles with Mumma,
And the big responsibility of picking the ripe tomatoes from Din's bush.









17 November 2012


Saturday treat; Turkish restaurant
With pirate stories and exotic fancies.



16 November 2012


As it gets ever closer to bedtime,
The big boys get ever wilder...



15 November 2012


Miro follows Matai into Nanny's special Bali bed,
Cuddling and watching all the shows they like best.



14 November 2012


Lately
Miro loves to shower
Under a plastic sheet.




13 November 2012


Enjoying special time with little Basie.



12 November 2012


Miro catches up on his Tom and Jerry comic,
Patiently evading capture
By an intermittently enthusiastic Lowie.



11 November 2012


Miro's first real cross-country expedition on his BMX.
The fear, the elation, the repetition...
And afterwards, the pride.





10 November 2012


Windy Saturday
Helping Papa in the garden.



9 November 2012


Who's meant to be sleeping?!



8 November 2012


Miro and Matai are obsessed with collecting every Thomas and Chuggington train in existence,
And building rails all over Toad Hall to carry them.



7 November 2012


Miro decides to give his beloved Rose a little present.



6 November 2012


Today, Miro builds a high-rise apartment
And sells Nanny a floor (with rooftop garden) for 5 cents...

Then proceeds to offer the same one to Leelee for nicks!
Nanny complains she's been had!



5 November 2012


Miro tries to negotiate with an exiled Matai
On Day Two of the Great Dinner Standoff.



4 November 2012


Morning at Josh's house;
Colouring and stickering while Tai is snoozing...



3 November 2012


Miro is such a sweet big brother;
All tenderness with his babies;
And in return, they are filled with
Boundless admiration, inspiration, emulation...
And love.



2 November 2012


Miro is SO excited before his "dicsho"
But the excitement of being a skeleton pirate quickly turns to consternation
When he realises he will have to dance
("I don't like to dance," he says sternly).

Still, after cupcakes and cordial,
He is enticed to one rapid conga line
With select besties, Benjamin and Peter.





1 November 2012


Pizza Friday... on a Thursday!



31 October 2012


Fun in the sun
With Tai and Vicky Cristina;
Cheese sandwiches, sunscreen and plenty of bare.




30 October 2012


Gettin' cosy with Rosie!

Watching a spot of teevee
While Archie gets better...



29 October 2012


Whenever we come home from anywhere,
Miro rings the doorbell and keeps ringing it.



28 October 2012


Brief summer romance:
Miro meets Melissa at the beach in Avalon
And is instantly besotted...



27 October 2012


In the garden, eating pizzas,
Touching pigeons, following rabbits,
Meeting new cousin Thomas,
Talking Transformers with Joshua,
And watching aeroplanes write
Half-finished messages across the sky...




26 October 2012


Miro picks sweet peas with Lucy...

And thinks Uncle Stevee is hilarious!
