Chasing Rockets.

Grammas house for the holidays.

Just a handful from our trip to E-Town.

Pretty lights, pretty tree, pretty girl.

Just a little mudsliding.

Who says a tutu is too dressy for bike riding?

"I feel pretty! Oh so pretty! I feel pretty and witty and wise!"

Daddy and Mila played a little bolf.

Rocking Dog

Flying with Daddy

My breakfast with Santa.

Me and Mummy all dressed up for our rendezvous with someone named Santa Claus.

This breakfast had better be good, I am hungry.

Is this hat too big?

Yum, yum, yum, yum yum.

Silly Daddy with my hat on.

Mummy introducing me to this mysterious Santa, I don't get the big deal.

You want me to sit on this dudes lap?! No way!

Phew, now we have escaped we can have some fun.


That funny man did give me a balloon, so I guess it wasn't all bad.

And I love my balloon.

Look Daddy, a balloon!


And last but not least, a quick romp in the leaves.

Daddy takes a day off work.

As most of you know Anton has been working his arse off and hasn't had a whole day off in many, many, many, many, many months. Today was the first work free day and we made the most of it.

First we start off with some Mickey Mouse pancakes....yummy.


Then a nice leisurely walk along the water to work off breakfast.

Next Daddy teaches Mila how to skip rocks on the water.

Mila needs a little more practice.

Time to watch a little soccer.

Time to head home for a nap.

Mila's first Trick or Treat Halloween.

For Mila's first Trick or Treat Halloween, we joined the Frigard's up in Petaluma. I think Mila loved the freedom of being allowed to run down the street unaccompanied more than the lollies.

Tweedledee and Tweedledum.

As soon as the gates were open, the girls ran like mad.

Ava and Mila getting the goods.

Come on Aneka! The candy isn't going to wait forever.

Hmm what do you have?

The Yo Gabba Gabba girls. Their costumes were ridiculously awesome.

Trick or treating got tiring, Daddy carried Mila to the last few houses while she munched lollies in between.

New potty!

In preparation for potty time I bought Mila her first potty. She loves it. Everyday when I go and sit on the toilet she joins me and sits on her toilet.....the only problem is that she doesn't know what to do next. All in good time.

Pretty comfy, what next?

Oooh the seat is cold!

I have my own toilet paper holder? Awesome.

Yep, this is how it's done.

Never too young to shop.

Kendra and I spent the afternoon at the outlets, with our little munchkins of course.

"oh, that is soooooooo your colour Aneka"

Ava was hiding in the clothes and Mila was trying to find her.

Time to relax on the slides...

Or off the slides.....

"hi there"

Aneka fearlessly scaled the ladder

Not so much scaling for Mila.....

Tolay Fall Festival

On Saturday we headed up to Petaluma to the Tolay Fall Festival with the Frigards. Kind of made us wish we had a country estate.

First stop was the Haybale Maze.

When you get to the middle you have to climb the hay pyramid. The girls did it in no time.

Mila covering her tracks so no one can follow her thru the maze.

Time for a hay-ride.

The hay ride took us to the pumpkin patch.

It was a race to find the best pumpkin.

Mila on the hunt.

Found one!

"Here Daddy, you carry it!"

Mila pretending to be a scarecrow.

Time to say hi to Bella the Palomino....they really liked each other.

There was a saddle on a hay bale that the kids could sit on.....Mila couldn't get it to do anything.

Father, daughter portrait.

Farmer Mila and the Frigirls.

What a pack of animals......


The highlight was most definietely the goats and donkeys.

"Can I please, please, please, please have one Daddy?"

Mila the Donkey whisperer.

Time to say goodbye. Mwah!

"and goodbye to you"

"and goodbye to you too"
