Choc-o-brow

This kid loves his babychinos.

If you say it, you better do it.

If you tell Logan we are going to see the ducks tomorrow, you better take him to see the ducks. He WILL remember. To walk to the ducks is about 40 minutes and I usually do a stop at the shopping centre to pick up a few things. Pretty much the entire time Logan was saying "duck, duck, duck" And then at the store it turned into "duck, DUCK, DUUUUUUUUUUUCKK!!" So, you can see, he is pretty set on seeing the ducks. All that for about a 5 minute bread feeding frenzy.

more bread please, mom!

Hehehe, duck!

And as the feeding frenzy is over Logan will say "bye duck"

Then it is time to play in the park. Collecting some leaves, my little Canadian!

And then Logan's favorite activity, ball play. Could this be a happier boy?

Strike a pose.

A mother's day outing

We decided that this mother's day we were going to take advantage of the nice morning and head to the outskirts of Melbourne for a "hike". Destination -- Hanging Rocks. This little man was ready to rock and roll.

Checking out tree rings with Dad

I think we were checking out some really big rocks -- as Logan would say "whoa"!

A rare family shot

Standing on top of the worlddddddddddddddddd!!!!

I have to say, I think this was the shot of the day. I absolutely love this pic of Logan and Dad.

Logan's first attempt and scaling rocks.

Finally, Easter Posts

We started off our Easter journey with some baking. I have to say that Logan is becoming quite a little chef already. Most of the ingredients actually end up in the bowl these days. And when it comes to rolling out cookies, playing with the flour is one of his favorite parts.

Ta da!!! The results. Bunny and egg cookies. Pretty proud of these ones, we've come along way from the gingerbread at Christmas.

Then, on to painting the eggs. Tried the crayon colouring and then the dunk into the dye. Logan lasted about 10 minutes (that's pretty good actually). But I think he stayed there because he was actually eating one of the eggs. Craig, with lots of groaning about doing this activity in the first place, had a fantastic time.





Ta da... the final result... Logan's Easter basket.

First taste of chocolate eggs. Yup, someone likes it :)

If this doesn't make you laugh....

Drum roll please....

....here he or she is, the newest soon-to-be addition to the Aussie Nitschke Clan. And yes, believe or not, we did not find out. We new it would be hard, especially if the technician asked us if we wanted to know the sex, but she never asked us. So that made it really easy (we have proof too, we have audio DVD that proves we never asked)

This is the baby's little foot and hand...awwww... how exciting.

Date of arrival -- approx. Sept 7th, 2011

Choo - Choo!

Today we took the little man to the Diamond Valley Miniature Train. Since he has been such a train fanatic lately we thought that it might be fun, and boy were we right. It opens at 11 am and we got there at 10:30 am and they were running little tests on these cute little trains.

Logan was very excited. He was running all around chanting "doo-doo, doo-doo" which is his version of choo-choo.

So, we climbed in (a little squishy for some of us)

Through the tunnel...

Not a bad voyage for $3.00 per person and lasted about 15 minutes. I was very impressed.

And so was Logan

Then, we walked around the park a little bit and tried to play some ball. But Logan wasn't having any of it. He wanted to go back on the train. The line was HUGE by this time. So, we tried the pony rides. That was a BIG NO-GO!

Even on the little pony carriage, Logan was not impressed.

Next time little man, next time.
