opening drawers

This week she has figured out how to open her toy drawer and kneel using the drawer for balance. She has increased her vocabulary from just 'ba' sound to inclued 'da'.

Belle is just about crawling, she can't quite get her right leg to move. You can see in the below photo that no teeth have come through yet but if you look closely you will be able to see they are on their way.

Most days were so hot we had to spend the middle parts of the day in the pool, Annabelle wasn't so sure about the pool, but loved playing in her blow up crab beside the pool.

Wiatangi weekend camping in Otaki

Family trip to (br)O-Taki the carver clan tripped up, first camping trip for Annie, time to break in the new tent too.

Trip to the beach

Will be harder when Annie is mobile then she'll be cranking arrround in the water with all the big kids! For now just happy watching everyone else, taking it all in.
