happy saturday everyone!
miss honey bunny, who is now three and a half weeks, is still the centre of attention around our place. the kids have all been super helpful still. lots of beach trips have still been happening! yesterday i took marlow and wolf down to our friends surf shop. they boys both loved looking at the boards. here is a photo of marls!
wolf has loved having another little sister. he loves po of course but he was only little when she was born and now he is at the perfect age with honey!
when i first joined these forums, i feel like i didnāt get a proper chance to introduce my kids and there have been lots of new people who have joined recently (or ones that have returned!) so i am going to give you a quick intro / info update on the kids!
before that though, my name is kaia and my husband lucas and i are both aussie. we are currently living in bali and we love it here! i donāt know how much longer we will stay here though as we are planning to eventually move back to sydney. the boys are both at an international school and po is at preschool, but i think that we will move within the next year before po starts primary school!
marlow thomas šš¼āāļø
often called marls, marley, m or low, marlow is my precious seven year old sweetheart. as i have said before, i had marlow when i was eighteen. people ask a lot if lucas (my husband) is his biological dad and yes, he is! marlowās favourite things to do include reading, running, soccer, surfing, and swimming - all of which he is amazing at! his favourite food is ice cream, his best friend is ozzy and his favourite place to go is england!
wolf rafferty š
wolfie is my cheeky, sweet second baby. wolf is five, and super nurturing, very loyal and extremely protective of marls, po + hon! he is much louder and more confident than marlow, he is definitely the second child! however, when we are at home, wolfs really is our little snuggle bug. he is very sensitive and loves spending time with our family. wolfās favourite things to do include surfing, skateboarding, running, cricket, footy, cooking and fixing things! his favourite food is lasagna, his favourite colour is aqua, his best friends are rafa, poppy, coco + finn!
posie winslet š
po, my adorable little lady! posie is three and has more love to give to everyone than anyone that i know! at random times in the day, she will run upstairs calling out to me or lucas, jumping, skipping and running down the corridor to deliver us a brand new artwork that she has coloured for us. po po is obsessed with the beach, collecting shells, disney princesses (especially belle!) and surfing like her brothers. she absolutely idolises marlow and wolf and is in love with her new baby sister. her best friend is named ottilie, her favourite colours are pink and yellow and she loves cookies!
honey tallulah šÆ
honey, my sweet, sweet, baby girl. she is only three and a half weeks old but she is so, so loved by everyone. our bee is the easiest little bub, hopefully she doesnāt change too much as she grows up!
anyway, hopefully that helped everyone to get to know the kids a bit better!
have a great weekend everyone 
I canāt say much for Merrily since sheās been asleep for pretty much the whole time. She didnāt love take-off, but it was better than I expected. Alton is loving looking out the window and seeing all of the āteeny things.ā I think heās enjoying himself! Loie was soooo excited to fly, but Iām so surprised that she hasnāt loved it! She does like looking out the window, but she gets motion sick soooo easily. 
The twins are really loving it! They packed a lot of extra things to do for the flight (besides what I packed) so theyāve been busy beavers!
. Iāll introduce the girls now.
[name_m]Layne[/name_m] [name_f]Waverly[/name_f] 
and she is 13 years old. [name_m]Layne[/name_m] is very mature for her age and is very kind and generous to her younger sisters.
[name_f]Kara[/name_f] [name_f]Avery[/name_f] 
, she is 10, [name_f]Kara[/name_f] is my super sassy blonde. I had troubles falling pregnant when [name_m]Layne[/name_m] was little and we wanted to give her a sibling, so [name_f]Kara[/name_f] was adopted. K was adopted when she was a newborn and she has no memory of her parents, we love her to pieces! 
[name_f]Camille[/name_f] [name_f]Ellery[/name_f] 
but is only called [name_f]Cami[/name_f], [name_f]Cami[/name_f] is 9.5. [name_f]Cami[/name_f] is a super duper sweet kid, she is a very gentle and hilarious individiual. [name_f]Cami[/name_f] was my suprise pregnancy, I found out I was pregnant with her when we had just adopted [name_f]Kara[/name_f] 1 month before! [name_f]Cami[/name_f] and [name_f]Kara[/name_f] are best friends, they spend all their time togther!
[name_f]Blakely[/name_f] [name_f]Elise[/name_f] 
, called [name_m]Blake[/name_m], sheās 5 but is soon turning 6! [name_m]Blake[/name_m] is the red-head in the family, she is adopted from my best friends cousin who was deemed unfit to be a parent. [name_m]Blake[/name_m] has no memory of her parents just like [name_f]Kara[/name_f]. [name_m]Blake[/name_m] is a sweet girl, she is a bit shy but my other kiddos do enough talking for her. [name_m]Blake[/name_m] and [name_m]Layne[/name_m] are very close even though they have a big age gap.
