Boxing Day

We opened a few parcels with Evie in bed together on Boxing Day morning. She was pretty excited when she saw the Santa lollipop from Granny and had to start eating it straight away.
Daddy got a kiss for a present from him.



Still chomping through the lollipop!!

Evie opened a few parcels in the living room with Daddy later on in the day.

Opening up the parcel from Granny and Grandad!

It was such a lovely eveing that we ate our dinner outside. Evie was helping to feed Daddy.


Evie stills like to eat with her fingers on the odd occasion, although rice can get a little messy!

Christmas Day

We started the day off opening the Christmas stocking. Evie had put it out with us the night before for Santa to fill.


This is Evie's new doll's house. We'd put the dolls and furniture in her stocking and then "unveiled" the dolls house later, it was too big to wrap! We didn't give her anymore presents at home this morning as she was too busy playing with the dolls house and wasn't much interested in anything else.






Then late morning we put on our Santa hats and went to Fernside for our Christmas dinner and to see the cousins.

Me, Mum and Ashley.

Evie helping Nan open her Christmas presents.



Then home in the evening after a very busy day!!! Still with presents under the tree to open tomorrow!!

Christmas Party

These are just a couple of photos of Evie at her Playcentre end of year Christmas Party. Somehow we managed to get Kenny to come along to it with us both! She had lots of fune dancing to the music and eating junk food!

Santa Parade

Today Evie went to the Santa Parade with Nan, Moana and Liberty in Rangiora.


Evie had a great time and waved to all the floats and called out to the children. She was still talking about it when we put her to bed in the evening. We then went to the party in the park and Evie continued the fun dancing to the live music.

Playcentre Outing

Our Playcentre group went to Waikuku Beach for our end of year outing. This is me with my friend Fiona and her wee girl Evie who is the same age as Evie. Evie was obviously more interested in her bag of crisps!


After playing at the beach we went to the Beach park and the girls loved paddling in the pool there. Evie's highlight though was the whale! This is her and Emma sitting on the whale's tail.

Christmas Tree

This is our Christmas tree this year, I decided to go for a pink theme!! I found some nice pink decorations in a second hand shop and thought "Kenny will love these!"

Evie was very excited putting up the tree and got dressed for the occasion! She was very helpful putting the decorations on and we have some of her decorations she made at playcentre on it.

Isn't she just the angel under the Christmas tree though?
