On an electric scooter with Alec! Isabelle's getting the hang of it.
Here are a bunch of photos and stories of what we have been up to since moving to Doha, Qatar, in July 2006. Enjoy! Brendan, Samantha, Isabelle, Matilda & Josephine

Shoes & scooters!
Isabelle wears Mormor's high heels. Matilda wears Mormor's first clogs (from age 2).
Visiting our new cousin in Kalbarri!
Isabelle and Matilda were both enamoured by their new cousin, Eleanor. What a cutie! Of course, it was lovely to catch up with Julia & Mike too.
Climbing the whale watching tower.
Endless kisses and cuddles.
Eleanor is very obliging.
The Tite family.
Hi Daddy! We're missing you!!
We promise, we're not having too much fun! Here are photos from our first week in Perth, getting spoilt rotten by all the family.

Sisters horsing around at home. (6.30am, mind you.)

Fun day in Kings Park... wow, this is a new experience for me - Matilda.
My first babycino!! Yum yum!!

Matilda's Birthday Party (Doha)
Matilda had a fun second birthday party! There was lots of yummy food, great friends, stickers & crayons, pink balloons... what more could you ask for?
I just have to mention an eerie coincidence... Isabelle's 2nd birthday party was held on 4/4/04, and Matilda's 2nd birthday party was today, 7/7/07. How weird is that??
Opening the presents...
Anyway, we're now winding everything Doha-related down, and getting packed & ready to hop on the plane tomorrow! Very exciting.
The blog may be a bit quiet over the next couple of months, but I will report again in September. Brendan may add some travel updates from his epic cycling "Tour de France". Hope to see a lot of you in Perth over winter!

Summer holiday sleepover party!
Our girls invited their "sisters" Elsie & Ruby from across the road for a sleepover. The results were fun, fabulous, frou frou, fantastic... see for yourself.
We made yummy pizzas, built our own ice cream sundaes (I say "built" because some were skyhigh!), did makeovers (gee, I didn't know I looked so good in purple eyeshadow), danced forever, and then settled in front of a movie until bedtime (which was a reasonable 9pm!).
Phew. Good fun.
