We are me; Mummy, otherwise known as Michelle, Big chickpea; Daddy, otherwise known as Tristan, Medium chickpea; Rowan and Baby chickpea Reuben. This blog was started as I thought I was starting to loose track of all the amazing day to day things my children learn and how we grow as a family. It is also here to keep family and friends up to date with our adventure of moving our life from the UK to Australia.

May in photos

In training with Tris doing some coastal footpath walking - rewarded with a funny face ice cream at Chapel Porth

Lighthouse exhibition at the national maritime museum - the boys loved this lighthouse kitchen

cooking seagulls eggs!

Rowan got really into learning semiphore, he did his name and even remebered it when we got home

There is also an exhibtion on polar explorations.  We all love the Capatin Scott stories.  The boys dressed up in real cold weather gear, this coat was amazing!


Roly poly time





Tris gave some walnut wood to a local wood carver as he gets so much wood he doesn't know what to do with it all, so in return the guy carved us a salad bowl (only thing is its so large it makes a big salad look tiny!)

Tris broke his hand, so has been off work for 6 weeks, at first he was a bit lost but he soon got into pottering about and making stuff.  He made these shelves for Reuben

Tris' birthday cake.  I wanted to keep it simple, but the boys had other ideas!


Rowan trying to eat cake with a fork!

Some birthday air guitaring



Salad crops from the garden

More of Tris' handiwork
