Happy Valentine's Day

Yesterday was A's first Valentine's Day and she took it all in her stride. Z is an expert now, and always has a great time. He stayed up late for a couple of nights working on his valentine's cards for his class and A's as well. Z wrote his own valentine's this year, and did a great job. On Saturday morning, Z and A accompanied Dad to his annual visit to the florist. Z picked out the flowers - a bouquet of beautiful pink roses. Z and A each got a red heart balloon from Mum and Dad, which is always a hit. A has been having a great time holding the ribbon, but hasn't quite worked out that the balloon is attached. Here's some of Z and A's artwork to celebrate the big V-day!

First teeth!

After a couple of weeks of serious drooling, A finally sprouted her first tooth. It is her front centre (right). Then yesterday out popped number two right next to the first (centre left). She's had a little cold this week, but seems to be over it and back to being the happy little girl she is.

Here are some other pictures from our recent visit to the zoo, which included A's first ride on the carousel.
