Week 50 saw Joseph heading back to Bear Park after a two week holiday - his teachers were very happy to see Joseph and all his new tricks.

Kate bought Joseph a little wooden trolley which Joseph just LOVES!! It really helps his walking confidence and he almost runs around behind it. He hasn't figured out how to turn corners however and just keeps on going straight.

Denise and Rob bought Joseph a huge paddling pool for Christmas and Joseph has really enjoyed exploring the water in it. We put lots of toys in there for him but he had just as much fun standing around the edge of it (both when he was in it and out of it). We've packed it away now but I'm sure it will get loads of use next summer when Joseph is a bit older.

Finally, here's a shot of Dan and I with all the boys watching the end of a Crusaders Super 14 rugby match.
