famous farmeuse

Here is Georgia in her gumboots, off to inspect the cows. She enjoyed most of the animals on the farm, including the cows but especially the ponies next door. However, she didn't like the sheep; they were too scary. She also liked the ducks and the baby ducks, but unfortunately so did the cats, so ducklings are an endangered species on Estuary View Road.







The one in front (*to be confirmed) is our cow, Entrecôte.



Doesn't she look delicious?

A new cousin

While Paul has been doubling the number of staff at his business, Kathy has been doubling the number of dependents at home.

Congratulations on the arrival of Mary Sophie Eloise Turner. Georgia is looking forward to another little girl to play with.

Beaches and barbeques

Georgia spent an afternoon at Mission Bay with Ben, re-arranging the sand. But dressed like this she was not going to make much progress on her tan.





With papa at her first (rather chilly) Barbeque in Wellington:



One by one, she is discovering her muscles. Today it is the tongue. This quickly progressed into spitting, which she thinks is the funniest game ever invented.

More family time

For the past couple of weeks, Georgia has been inundated with aunts, uncles, grandparents, grand aunts, cousins, parents' friends, parents' friends' babies, gardeners, cooks and cleaners...
