Daisy is 8!

A great haul of presents then off to school.

Daisy's birthday dinner was fish, chips and vegetables.

Another banana choc chip cake.

Party Day!

Daisy walks the catwalk then strikes a pose at her fashion themed party.

There was a lot of posing going on.

Yep, some more posing.

There was also some excellent dancing.

More fish and chips.

Cake!

A great party topped off with a disco and sleepover with Hannah.

I can't believe how fast Daisy is hurtling towards double figures! She continues to be fabulous, just all in all a really good girl. She has a great teacher who often reminds me how wonderful Daisy is. She continues to do very well in school and puts in a great effort with her school work. She isn't particularly interested in sport but is still enjoying swimming and gymnastics and has taken up tennis which she loves for the social aspect. She takes her responsibility as a big sister very seriously and is a great help with Max who adores her. She reads reads and reads some more and flies through books faster than I can buy them. I often have to tell her to put the book down and get outside, she would read 24/7 if I let her! Daisy is as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside and we are so lucky to have her.

Daisy's party was on 2 February and was a fashion party. The girls had a great time and loved all the strutting about and posing.

Our wonderful Zach is six! It's been a much better year with Zach this year. I'm not sure if it's just an age thing or the effect of no longer being the only middle child or whatever else but he's been a much happier boy and loved his family much more than the previous couple of years. He has flourished in Year One at school and is a bit of a maths wizz (doesn't get that from me!) and continues to love sports. He is football mad but also enjoys rugby and has loved the tournaments he has been on. He is also enjoys swimming although more under the water than on top of it. He finally got his much anticipated sleepover with his bestie Miles and they've had a few since. All in all a good year and we continue to be very proud of Zach and the effort he puts in to everything he does.

We had Zach's party at home on 31 January. It was a football party and he had a great time with his lovely group of friends. A top day was topped off perfectly with Miles staying for a sleepover.
