Fiji - part 2

I have to blog this in parts, the iPad can't handle too many pics at once....

This selection of pics is from our day trips.

First- to a traditional Fijian village. We had kava and watched them make pottery and sing/dance.

Second - a day trip to Tivua Island. We went on a glass bottom boat and went snorkelling in the clear warm water. The boys loved seeing all the coral and fish!















































Fiji - part 1

In early March we spent 8 nights in Fiji. We stayed at the Outrigger on the Lagoon on the Coral Coast.
We had the most amazing time. Our trip was relaxed and fun. The boys enjoyed kids club and we enjoyed some time alone! We swam, ate, drank and relaxed. We highly recommend it and would love to go back one day :)

Here is a selection of photos from around the resort. I'm posting from the iPad, so I can't comment on the photos, so hopefully they are fairly self explanatory...







































































Seat belts

About 2 weeks ago we swapped the boys from a 5point harness to an adult lap-sash seat belt and in doing so, converted their seats to booster seats.
They weight guidelines for the conversation is 18kg.
Depending on the time of day they are weighed....
Ethan is 17.9-18.4kg
Ben is 16.9- 17.5kg

We figure that's about right....

They are happy with the move :)



Soccer

Ben and Ethan have started under 5's soccer!
They have played 3 games and are loving it. We play early Saturday mornings for 2x15 minute halves. They play 4 a side with no goalkeeper on a small field. It's good as they have more chance to kick the ball. They haven't scored a goal yet, but kick the ball often and have great fun!!!
They also have practice on a Tuesday for30-45 mins. With soccer, preschool (two days a week) karate and swimming they are busy little boys.

Below are some pics of their first game.
Ethan was number 1. Ben was number 3.
