Happy New Year's eve :)


New Year's Eve Party.

david & diedre playing before bedtime


david, miles & diedre play with the garage


diedre is pulling up to standing up on everything now! she turned 10 months on boxing day and has been spending her days pulling up to standing, playing with books, chattering "duba duba duba" and she does this cute whispering thing too. she has been pointing to things to ask what they are and says "this" sometimes too. she rarely says "mum" unless she's upset and usually says "da or dad" when she sees derek.

derek and i feel so blessed when we look back on the past year. we are so thankful for our beautiful, intelligent, healthy daughter and for all our family and friends who have been able to visit from far away and near too.

Have a very Happy New Year!
