Taking down the Christmas decorations, actually a couple of days later than the usual Boxing Day de-Christmasing tradition...althoguh judging by the singing that's happening, I dont' think we will completely de-Christmas the girls any time soon!
Our own strawberry patch is suffering from last summers' pregnancy (mine, not the gardens, but I was quite useless last summer - except for deck building that is!) but Mr Mills down the road has GREAT spray-free strawberries, and Cooper's pretty impressed!
Cooper's really good at getting wherever he wants to get...eventually, but still by going backwards and rolling, however, no-one's exactly sure how THIS happened! Actaully it now seems he may have found the forward gear...more practice tomorrow!
I thought my "paint the clown" idea at Eden's party was cool, and now it seems more Dad's are being the "stars"...it was Tom's idea to have all the kids throw water balloons at him at Rosie's 5th birthday party!

Little kids first before the big kids got a go...
Then all out on the lawn where he could throw them back!
Lachie a little bit wet, but being so cool about watching what he eats at parties now (and it helps when you're at a party where another kid at the party is the same!) 
Now it's our turn to plan a couple of parties!
