Week 48 saw Dan, Kate, Harry, Alfie, Joseph and me head down to Onemana, a little place in the Coromandel, about 2 hours south east of Auckland. We hired a house there which had great views but lots of things for inquisitive little boys to get into to!

Dan bought a backpack baby carrier on Trade Me and we took this with us. Dan and Joseph had a couple of excursions using it. Poor Dan worked up a sweat lugging the big fella around!

We went to a few beaches and Joseph loved eating the sand. Here we are at Whangamata Beach. I didn't realise how much sand he actually did consume until I changed his nappy the next day - it has great "exfoliating" properties!


I also didn't realise how hard it would be to get a picture of all three boys looking a) happy and b) at the camera the same time...so, here's another one of Harry, Joseph and Alfie all out of sorts!!
