Off on our holidays!!



Hi everyone :) We will be off on our holidays on Friday so this will be the last post until we get back. We are taking a road trip to Tennessee with Jennifer, Matt and Mikayla and meeting family down there. Jason has organised a cabin for us all to stay in. We are doing most of the journey overnight so hopefully Oliver and Mikayla will sleep well in the car :)

Oliver has a new favourite word: digger!! For a few reasons I suppose - Nanna Pan bought him a book on diggers, he has a couple of toy diggers and he sees them almost every day when we drive past the road construction on Highway 169. I've never heard digger shouted so loudly!! I tried to get it on video today but he wasn't performing for me but I'm sure there will be ample opportunity!

We've kept busy going to play dates as always! Last Friday we went to Jackson's house - it was his 3rd birthday so Oliver got messy with a cupcake. We were supposed to be going swimming but sadly it decided to rain. On Thursday we met Mary and Rowen at a local play area which we'd never been to before. It was a great place for older and younger kids so we may well go back there. Today we went to Rebecca and Bryce's house and had a great morning playing outside. Of course Oliver was happy just to push a digger round all morning :)

As you can see from the countdown timer we are making a trip back to England at Christmas!! We arrive on 19th Dec and leave on 3rd Jan. We are all so excited to be coming home for a visit - it will be 19 months since we left by then. Hopefully Oliver handles the trip well - he's quite into flying and planes as you will see from the video below!

Anyway, we'll be back in a couple of weeks with some photos from holiday - bye for now!


Oliver can't possible choose between his milk and his digger!

Yes, digging in the sand with diggers.....

Mmmmm - cupcakes :)

Daddy brought this hat home from work and Oliver tries every day to put it on :)
