   It was a lovely day.  Fay had a great time with Noah and Alize, she likes meeting her new friends too.  Had a few surprises of people who are totally different in real life to my perceptions from here.  Great to put faces and personalities to friends.
 Big big thank you to Keli for organising transport and driving under extreme distraction with one crying baby all the way from PN to Otaki and then another one from Otaki and 2 babies from Paekat to Wellington when Fay felt left out and joined Alize in the protest.  And Leish for being a great road trip buddy
 
 I t was a great day to catch up with my friend Caroline who did the photos, I may have recruited her to our secret cult as well

   How did I completely miss this thread        Sheesh - I thought I was checking in here all day yesterday to see if there was anything.  What a dork    All the photos look great and all the babies/kiddies are super cute!!
 I had a great time yesterday!!  And Noah did too - when he wasn't banging his head on the chairs.  Hope you haven't reported me yet Kels    Have to repeat Claire's huge thanks to Keli for being a complete legend with the driving yesterday.  You were such a star and driving with the crying babies and totally keeping your cool was very cool.  Hope that Alize and Fay were settled for the trip home.
 And I generally am darker IRL than people think I will be Teresa.  Don't worry - I don't take offence [:)  And I didn't buy anything at the PP outlet in Otaki Bombshell.  I was very restrained.  But am planning another trip up there in a couple of weekends time with hubby to do a big shop for the next size up for Noah - size 1    |

   I figured out why my presumption Leish. Cause you and Noah and Christopher have such "white" names! Now I sound racist haha!
