Dylan - While I ironed, and Dad snoozed on the lounge, somebody got a free shot at the TV, more specifically ABC for Kids channel.  Play School, Bananas in Pyjamas and a bunch of others make you one happy boy! A portrait of my children, once a week, every week in 2017 Tristan - This week, particularly the last couple of days, you've just improved so much with your walking.  There's still plenty of wobbles, but you just try again and making it across the living room, or up the hall gives you the confidence to keep on going.  Often we find you've taken yourself off to your room where you have most of your books strewn across the floor and you can be heard tinkering away on your musical instruments.  I love hearing you play and the little giggles you make.

Dylan - The Easter bunny came to visit us this weekend and weren't you excited?!?!  Chocolate for Breakfast is apparently quite good! A portrait of my children, once a week, every week in 2017 Tristan - One evening we put you in the bath with Dylan and I'd bought you both a new bottle of bubble bath that week.  Bubble beards are HILARIOUS! There was so much laughter going on I couldn't help but laugh myself.  You laughed so hard you fell over in the water which caused much spluttering, but as soon as you saw your big brother's bubble beard again there was just more giggles.

Dylan - We had some fun creating your very first Easter Hat for the parade at daycare. You just loooved it and any chance I gave you to help with gluing or arranging or anything you just lapped it up. Ok so maybe art and craft isn't so bad!! A portrait of my children, once a week, every week in 2017 Tristan - I couldn't resist a shot of this sweet bubba from behind sitting on the floor in his cute little overalls.  Hair is getting a bit mullety, with a few wavy bits - the start of some curls perhaps??  But the bit of a wave of pokey-up hair at the front, just ridiculously sweet!

Dylan - Sitting on the floor playing Lego. Such a great imagination. A portrait of my children, once a week, every week in 2017 Tristan - And he was off!  Friday 31st March in the evening after I got home from work, that baby boy of mine walked.  More than just the 1 - 1.5 steps that he had been doing.  He was so super happy to take those wobbly steps towards me.

Dylan - You've been a bit pushed aside this past week.  Your baby brother was having his 1st birthday and it was all about him.  You took it so well though.  You've been excited about the birthday cake for days, and even helped when we went to the toy shop to purchase Tristan's birthday present.  You let him have the spotlight, but we loved that you seemed so happy for him.  One year olds definitely need their big brother's assistance to unwrap birthday present, and you were just the man for the job!  All of Tristan's new toys have been tested for maximum fun and enjoyment by you, regardless if we think they are age appropriate more to babies than big 4 year olds.  No wonder Tristan looks up to you and loves you so much our darling Dylan. A portrait of my children, once a week, every week in 2017 Tristan - Happy 1st Birthday beautiful boy!  WE MADE IT! WE SURVIVED! There were times that I doubted we could get through, but we did it.  You are here and we love

Dylan - My goodness you are growing up!  We've started your school readiness program at daycare, and even begun your weekly "homework".  I'm sure the novelty of it all will wear off soon enough, but I'm glad you seem so happy to be learning.  You've currently got this strange obsession with making and then flying paper aeroplanes.  Some days it drives me bonkers!  You never know when a paper aeroplane will come sailing past you.  It's not a good idea to throw them near the kitchen, and it definitely wasn't a good idea to have it land right in the scented candle I was burning. Cleaning red wax off the benchtops wasn't my idea of fun. But it could have been worse if the paper had caught alight!  Let's not do that again okay? A portrait of my children, once a week, every week in 2017   Tristan - Oh my sweet cheeky bubba!  Nearly 1 year old.  I can't believe a whole year has gone by since you arrived into the world.  You are still crawli
