February 2011

Hi all... Well it seems I have started the year badly, with an average of a month between posts... At least I seem to have finally gotten around to it...

So February...another busy month, with the girls in Semarang, and a couple of parties...

Here are the girls in Semarang...


Before leaving, a school group had an outing to the park outside Oma's house...so Claire joined in on the songs and games...


Luckily she knew a lot of the songs already...


Since coming back home, there's been a few outings... This was to Charlotte's house to prepare for a baby shower...


Claire & Sienna have grown quite a lot since first meeting...


I am sure the dad's are going to have trouble controlling these girls in future ;)



And Keira and Jasmine are planning their get-away...


We did some dancing...



Caleb had a party (from left Gasper, Caleb, Claire, Keira)... Classmates...


Lately Keira has been asking Claire to "up up" or "cuddle"...


Claire's a great big sister, and Keira loves her cuddles very much...


Before Grandma and Grandad went home, we made another trip to Modesto's (seemingly the new family favourite)...


Where Claire's drawing skills are getting better and better...


Some family shots...


So you can see the resemblance between members...


Sometimes more than others...


Baa....


Who do you think is in control?


Some photos from the airport... Claire making sure she qualifies for a carry on...


Art and craft time..


Ce Shelda and Ie Merry...


Mummy and Ie Merry...


Mummy Siannie, Ie Merry, Mummy...



Time for a quick snack...


This is what the kids call "tick tock elephant"... a ride on elephant that makes a tick-tock sound and is walks...


Claire's Princess complex is growing these days...here she is having a manicure, and personal music attendant...


Whilst Keira hit the fairways for a round of golf...


Even Papa Ayen got into the manicure action...


With a beautiful yellow colour!


Keira and Daddy, just before heading for the airport..


Ayush turned 3, and the party was big...


Even including a clown / performance...


The two little ones...


THE cake....


Claire, Keira and Emma enjoying the show...


Time for another cuddle...


Happy Birthday Ayush...


And again...



Now its time for balloons... Claire sat there and proudly asked the clown to please make a balloon for Keira...


And Claire's latest and greatest... She's eating with chopsticks...


Even Grandad can't do that! :)


And now in real-time...



And lastly, a baby shower for Rachel (Oliver's mum)... Good luck!


Love c&k....
