Rach and Dave: June 2009
http://rachanddaveouwejan.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 29, 2009. We like being outside. Apologies for pic quality, it was getting dark out there. Really I just wanted to show off the cool hat Aunty Jen made :-). I think this may also count as the official first tree climbing attempt! Posted by Mrs O. Head on over to Karen's blog for a couple of posts featuring our little guy:. JJ gets a girlfriend. First birthday partying, round 1. Posted by Mrs O. Monday, June 15, 2009. New woollies arrived today. Thank you Great Aunty Karen! Posted by Mrs O.

Rach and Dave: Hi!
http://rachanddaveouwejan.blogspot.com/2009/09/hi.html
Monday, September 14, 2009. Sorry again for the lateness of posting - it has been a crazy couple of months. JJ is really no longer a baby, he is running everywhere (usually cackling madly). He desperately needs a haircut as you can tell from these pics, doesn't bother him though so it's not high on the priority list! He still makes more noise than actual words but here's the current list of words he will sometimes say (in order): Dad, Hi, Dog, Cat, Mama, Ta, No, Bye, Bird, Pig, and Mower :-).

Rach and Dave: July 2010
http://rachanddaveouwejan.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 29, 2010. Howdy folks. We've been a bit slack at keeping this blog updated. in fact, the last time we blogged Rach wasn't even pregnant, I hadn't been to Ausie and we didn't have our latest addition to the family! I'm sure you REALLY want to hear about the trip to ausie, but I'll first discuss the latest addition to the family! What's more, Rach gave birth naturally and WITHOUT pain relief. What a trooper! At midday we received the discharge papers and we left for Helensville Birthing Unit.

Rach and Dave: March 2009
http://rachanddaveouwejan.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 29, 2009. Share and share alike, HE says! Our pear tree is laden with fruit, and this was the first taste test of the season. JJ decided he rather likes whole pears too, and engaged in a bit of eye gouging and cheek grabbing to get Mum's pear all to himself :-). Posted by Mrs O. Friday, March 13, 2009. There are only 3 days between this photo and the previous post's photos, but the haircut makes him look a lot more like a boy and less like a baby! Posted by Mrs O. Tuesday, March 10, 2009.

Nivi's Adventures: March 2006
http://nivsiv.blogspot.com/2006_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 31, 2006. This is a somewhat disappointing post for a couple of reasons, firstly I have no photos and secondly cos I dont have a happy story about the snow at Whistler! Jean took me along on her work ski weekend up at Whistler. She arranged to borrow pretty much everything I didn't already have (thank you Jean! And off we drove on Friday evening, headed for Whistler - which is only a 2 hour drive! Posted by Nivi at 1:22 PM. Thursday, March 30, 2006. From Seattle to Vancouver. This is a phot...

Monday, June 26, 2006. Bahrain - Pearl of the Arabian Gulf. And just in case you're like "what is Bahrain? It's a tiny island (although technically an archipelago) in the Middle East - and I mean TINY! The land area is 665 sq km (Lake Taupo is 616 sqkm). The population is about 700,000 of which about 200,000 are expatriates. The annual GDP is about $14billion, which is from oil. These photos probably aren't going to be very interesting if you have no affiliation with Bahrain - sorry! Bab Al Bahrain - Ara...

Nivi's Adventures: November 2006
http://nivsiv.blogspot.com/2006_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 20, 2006. So we finally made it back to Cairo and had a few more sights before having to part ways with the gang. A lady showing us how papyrus is made. This is kinda funny. Hani had told us that we were going to a really good perfumerie but most of the people I spoke to thought, 'yeah, it'll be cool to have a look-see, but I won't actually buy anything.' Oh how wrong we were! There were some really nice ones and almost everyone ended up buying at least one perfume! We visited The Mosque...

Monday, July 31, 2006. Anyway my thoughts and rantings aside, another reason London is so wicked is because half my friends and cousins are here! Here are some pics of my time in London. Out with Jo and some mates. L to R: Jo, Me and Katrina. Asaf (a friend from San Francisco) was in London for a week. On the southbank with Rick (cheesily posed with Big Ben in the background). Brunch on a gorgeous sunny Sunday. L to R: James, Rick, Vasi, Me and Tom. The start of a night out with Tom and Rick. First stop ...

Nivi's Adventures: December 2006
http://nivsiv.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 08, 2006. Well arriving back in Tokyo from Kyoto on the night bus meant I arrived at some creazy early hour, which sucked for the obvious reason (lack of sleep! But at the same time, it meant that it was a great opportunity to get to the inner fish market. Man that was a looooong knife this dude was using to chop the fish. I don't know what type of fish these are, but they look like sucker fish - scary! These fish were so silver and shiny they looked like they'd been wrapped in tin foil!
