So that was labour weekend!
Heres some pics of us today....*wavies to the grandparents and any whanau tuning in!!

Joseph and Patrick have been getting stuck into doing lots of chores around the house and garden this last week. They have decided they would like a scooter and a skateboard and I said they need to earn them. So they sat down at the table one afternoon and brainstormed a list of jobs they could do...so they have been very busy this weekend preparing the lamb milk and feeding Rosie and Poppy, washing Dads car, folding washing, emptying and filling the dish washer, tidying the lounge and their rooms, setting the table for meals to name a few....they write what they do on a piece of paper and at the end of the week I will price up their work sheets and pay them...so far so good....hope it lasts!!!






Samuel brooming his digger in the sun this morning...love it when he gets so absorbed he dosn't realise I'm there with the camera...love his fuzzle hair rofl!
Awwwww!! found them like this this afternoon while we were busy painting.

Wow, you've got some great wee helpers there! I know they are doing it for the money, but wow!! Can they come and do some work around here afterwards? LOL

Sorry Meek - Nozzleguy is my Canuck cousin getting excited about the Boston Redsox game - Usually he is a nice guy but today he's just being annoying. If I were still in Saint John NB - I throw something at him right now.
