"i'm free AND a half!"

we've been having a busy ol' time...
(voluntary labour i swear!)

had a fantastic visit to the museum-
drumming good.
post-modernism bad.

chatting *to* WW2 soldiers telling their stories-
and checking out their planes...
checking out the wildlife-
and hanging out in the pub with grand-dad?!

she also loved the midwinter lantern festival-

and after reading a book called "Monsieur Saguette and his Baguette" how could we possibly resist the display at the fruit shop?

she's mastered the art of preparing for our changeable weather-

and is finally happy to have her hair washed!
see how long it is!
(it's even longer when combed still wet!)

this was a firefighter in action-
and i discovered this in our bed-
and though we're not teaching her to read or write yet, have a look at her x's, and you can just see an a above the NZ post logo-
cool huh?

she thinks she is very clever because she can say astronaut & archeologist, but i think it is cuter when she sings "round & round the garden goes the teh-beh-bear!" or asks for some "wursey whymes!"
