Happy Chinese New Year!

They dressed up at Genna's daycare this week to celebrate Chinese New Year

They chose a blue outfit for Genna to match her eyes - so pretty :)

We also had some fun painting at home

It is SO much fun to make a mess!!!

We also went to Manly one day to catch up with our friends Rita (who is due any day now!), Lindsay, Chloe & Louisa

Genna keeping an eye on Chloe

Yummm rice crackers at the beach

Back at home that afternoon - she worked on pulling both toys at once

and dive bombing her sofa

SO fun to climb over the back!!!

She also helped Dada test out his new massage chair

It's A-OK Dada!

Now - push me in my CAR!!!

She also stayed home from daycare one day this week after having a rough night's 'sleep'

sometimes its just nice to relax with Sesame Street

Every time we get in the car she grabs an armful of her friends to come with - this is the usual crowd - Baba, Woof Woof and Baby

Other things....
She loves to tuck her puppy into 'bed' before heading to bed herself. We have a makeshift bed (just for puppy, near her cot) where she lays her down, tucks her in with a blanket and they lays down and kisses and cuddles her before saying SHUSSSSSH and heading off to her own cot to go to sleep. So so so sweet.

She has initiated the first stages of potty training herself! I never thought we'd start this early, but she has started telling me when she has done a 'pee pee' or a 'poo poo.' So we got a couple little potty chairs, which so far she just likes to sit in and use a piece of tissue to 'wipe.' But - its a start!

Australia Day blog to come soon!!
