Jackson the super biker!

I took Jack to the Hornby bike park tonight for a blat. Check out my boy ripping it up! What a dude! Next lesson – Jumps!

Jack’s Lego Jetboat!

How’s this for an awesome lego creation. He’s getting really good at doing the big kitsets and also making plenty of his own inventions.  😉

Jack–“Scooter Boy!”

This is Jack on his second time out on the scooter. Not bad eh! I’m feeling the need to dust off my skateboard and have a bash at the skate park…

A day at Akaroa!

Sunday morning was gloomy in Christchurch so I grabbed the family and took them to Akaroa for a break and a fish. I was really proud of Jackson as he caught his first fish solo.

He dropped the line, hooked the fish and reeled it in himself. What a rush! Time for the big fish now! I’m feeling the need to take the boat out for a proper fish somewhere!

Why is it that when I get a lovely photo of Sarah Olivia has to poke her tongue out to spoil the shot…

Bedtime Stories…

Jess, Devoe and Jackson having their bedtime stories. It’s been awesome having them stay but we’ll have to head to Aussie son to see them on their home turf. Jack and Devoe have been great together!

The entrance deck is done!

Just need the deck lights, fern garden up each side and it’ll be good to go. I needed a flagstone (Shist rock) for an initial step.

I did a contra with the stonemason… Two metre wide flat stones for two bottles of Bourbon. So I had to pop to the liquor shop for a few bottles. Typical dodgy country deals eh. Will look great though!

Here’s a random photo Jack took when he stole my iPhone… Man, my baby Jack is really growing up. He already knows how to download apps from the iTunes AppStore on the iPad!

Jack and his sister Olivia

Jack having a cuddle with his sister. He loves her (I think) and they’ll be great mates when she’s a little bigger.

1st day at Soccer!

It’s official! Jack has started playing soccer for the “Rolleston Midgets”. His team is called the “Bunny Lodge Bulldogs” – cool eh!

They will play at 11am each Saturday down at Rolleston. The kids are great, none have a clue what they’re really doing, it’s complete chaos but it’s totally fun.

After a slow start he got into it and kicked the ball around heaps!

This is his team. They are pretty small and cute to watch running around. The coach, “Mike” seems to love what he does. Give Jack a few weeks and he’ll be totally into it. That is until the winter frost kicks in!
