On Friday, Joseph and I made the trip down to Karaka (about 15km south of us) for a "Mother's Group" gathering. Kelly and Cam moved down there last year and this was the first time we had all visited. There were five (of the six) regulars there - Chantell and Sarah, Anne and Taylor, Kelly and William and Jo and Lizzie (+ Charlotte, 3 weeks old and the first of the second babies!). It was great to catch up with everyone and see how all the kids have changed/what their little personalities are.
We got Kelly's Mum to take a picture of all of us so once that gets emailed through I'll post that as well!
Here's a selection of pics:
1) Sarah and Joseph
2) Taylor and Joseph fighting over the tunnel
3) William, Joseph, Taylor and Sarah (left to right) playing in the sandpit (plus Kelly and Lev the dog)
Over the weekend, Joseph did a lot of manual labour helping Dan finish off some important outside jobs. They washed down the house (lots of water play) and on Sunday Dan reattached the spouting - Joseph proved quite handy on the screwdriver.
Joseph's speech is coming along and becoming clearer and clearer - he is enunciating the end of his words much better now. He LOVES trains and we will probably get him a train set for his birthday. He is still alternating between the cot and the bed - there doesn't seem to be any pattern to it so am not sure what to do about that at the moment! He is learning to jump and hop which is very funny as it generally results in a big "crash landing" on his bottom. And his second bottom right molar is on it's way through (joining the second bottom left one that came through a couple of weeks ago!). Only two more teeth to come!
