Erin vs Toast With Marmite

Sorry there haven't been any 'proper' update posts, things have been very busy the last couple of weeks - plus Roland has had to work from home for the last two weekends due to various emergencies. All is well though, and we will try and write more soon !

Take care,

Love Jax, Roland & Erin

Playtime with Daddy

Take care folks,

Little girl, big chair !

Just a few shots of Erin hanging out in the lazyboy chair, we think she looks quite comfortable !

Oh Baby !

On Saturday the 10th of February, Erin & Mummy went to meet up & have coffee with some other ladies & babies that they know from a New Zealand pregnancy and parenting website called ohbaby.co.nz

Lots of people showed up and it was a lovely get together, but of course the pictures explain better than words ! So here they are:


Erin, Emma & one of Emma's twin girls - Mercedes


Erin being clever and sitting up in her buggy.


Bottle time for the twins ! Not sure which is which though, sorry ! (Their names are Sienna Marie & Mercedes Kailah)


L-R: Gaye & Maren (7weeks), Jack (2yrs - Gaye's) & Kelly


The two girls in the middle of the photo are (L-R) Caitlyn (Kelly's daughter, almost 5yrs) & Maya (Emma's daughter, almost 4yrs).


R: Zaara & her mummy Roksana


McKayla & her mummy Shirena (recently moved to NZ from South Africa)


Zac & his mummy Kim (who have just come back after living in Saudi Arabia)

That's the bulk of the photos though, we will finish off with a photo of Erin having a snooze after her lunch since she'd had so much fun !!

Take care folks !
Love Jax, Roland & Erin

Happy (belated) Birthday cousin Julia !!

Dear Julia,

HAPPY 3rd BIRTHDAY !! Sorry we are a bit late, but it looks like you had a good time at daycare, and then with Grandma and Papere.

Lots of Love from cousin Erin :)

(and Jacquie & Roland)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY !!

An *almost* belated Happy Birthday to Roland !! :-D



We hope you enjoyed your day, your presents, and your birthday cake !! Yum yum.

Lots of love from:

Your daughter Erin




and your wife Jacquie

Yum yum yum !

As you can see Erin has discovered her toes - looks like they are pretty tasty !!






Let's see... what other developments have their been lately?

First word - "Dada", eating three "solid" meals a day and still having four bottles. Erin sleeps through now from roughly 7:30pm to roughly 7am, which means mummy & daddy get the evening to themselves - hurray !!

Erin can also now sit up unassisted and often likes to spend time just playing on the floor with her toys. Her favorite toy is still her walker, which she still uses to zoom around the kitchen in, chase the cats with, pull out tea towels and tries to get into the rubbish bin as well - yuck.

That's pretty much it, Erin has been a very good girl lately - maybe time for a new toy... hehehe ;)

Love Jax, Erin & Roland

Feeling hot hot hot...

We have been having some very muggy weather lately, we are surprised poor Erin managed to sleep at all - but as you can see, sleep she did !!

Love Jax, Roland & Erin
