Halloween to Almost Christmas

Halloween was an absolute blast. Poss went as a Bat...

 … and I went as a Cat.

 Daddy didn't come. He was in Tokyo on tour with the All Blacks.

Here is me and Poss with our friends Lola and Nutty.

 

And here are all our friends together, about to take off for trick a treating.

 It was tiring traipsing the streets so we took a load off at this local bus stop.

November was very long and a little bit lonely for us without Dadda, but Mum kept us busy. 

There was Playball...

… a ride in a fire engine...

… bathtime hijinx...

…  keeping up with the All Blacks of course...

 … visits to Great Aunt Flissy...

… keeping an eye on Mum's bump...

 … and a weekend with Aunt Lizzy in Hamilton...

 … We just love their little dog Mac!

There was also lots of ice-cream….

… Dance lessons…

… traveling to dance lessons...

 … lovely new summer outfits from Ganny...

… and a weekend visit from Nana Raine who stayed up late one night securing the property from potential burglars.

She was back on the job first thing in the morn.

Thanks so much for coming Nana.

We also enjoyed the November sun on the beach…

… at home...

… and at kindy.

We really missed Dadda, but sleeping in his tee shirts really helped.

And before we knew it, there was just one more sleep till Daddy flew home.

 We were so excited…
…
we could barely sleep.

 To celebrate his return, we went horse riding at Coatesville.

 

… and ate lollipops.

 Mummy has a couple of months to go till baby is due…

… and has started getting the baby room ready.

Poss is heavily into practicing her nappy changing techniques on her bubba.

I've had my first school visit...

 … and took part in the Peninsula Christmas Parade, marching with my kindy as a little Brit. (Children of the World Theme).

 Here I am with my friends Catherine and Lola.

 And here is Poss and Nut at the Fair afterwards.

We are very excited about Christmas...

… and just love these new decorations from Ganny.

 Today was my Kindy Christmas Party.

 I got a cuddle from Father Christmas...

… and a candy cane.

Sylvie wasn't so sure about him at her Playgroup Christmas Party.

Poss is making some great friends now of her own. Nutty of course…

 … Amelie, Lulu...

… and this is Emerson. 

We'll leave you with a Christmas song from my kindy Christmas party - I'm a little Christmas Tree, and Poss and Nut playing Thelma and Louise after the Christmas Parade!
