Putting up the christmas tree with LOTS of sibling love!

Waiting for thanksgiving dinner

Claire was our master tree decorator-Damian slept until it was almost finished ( we ARE noticing a theme here...). They both have been going nuts over the tree though-and really enjoying playing with each other! There has been much dancing, singing, wrestling in front of the christmas tree already. Can't wait to share it with all the grandparents!!

HEY! Check out that bird! Damian loved bird world.










Kids climbing the hippo statue.













Testing how far they can JUMP!


























Another picture of us hugging???














Feeding the lorikeets-Damian was fascinated but not about to get too close..(maybe he remembers the bird on his head!)










Of course there are two drums but they both HAD to have this one...argh

Knowing she's silly...!

D doesn't know what Claire is doing (trying to pick up leaves without stepping on the mulch with bare feet) but it looked like fun....

collecting pretty leaves for leaf art!

the princess and the elephant....

the little animals enjoying their treats!












daddy took good care of the little man


























it was a little overwhelming at times!














beautiful butterfly princess Claire..no ordinary old princesses for us!
