September school holidays (part two) 3 videos

Amelia calling Lala

together in bed

In the afternoon Mykaela read books to find a

suitable story to make as a puppet show.

It was very good, I like the way she was changing

her voice for each puppet. She practised and practised.

And when Jo came to pick them up she had to sit

and be part of the audience.

September school holidays

Tuesday 28 September

Mykaela is on school holidays.

She came to spend the night and

Wednesday with us.

They finished dinner and it is

now bath time.

Wednesday 29 September

Amelia: " I am awake , where is Lala?"

Lala, Lala, Lala

Oh that is better, because Amelia was

calling louder each time.

After breakfast I made a bed on the

lounge for Mykaela.

She was sleeping in Claude's study

and he has to start work.

While Mykaela is lounging Amelia is

doing the ironing....

We went to feed the birds.

I wonder if she is leaving some of

her weet bix especially for them!!!

The weather has turn nasty, it

is very windy and cold.

I had put Amelia in shorts but

I changed her into long pants.

Blowing bubbles.

She tipped the bottle on the side and all

over the deck.

She had a bit of fun, while the mixture lasted.

It was too cold for Mykaela, she went back inside.

Craft time.

We had a bit of drama with Amelia wanting to

use the scissors too.

Making a house for the echidna

and the mouse finger puppets.

making a big tower.

She put a princess at the top

when it was finished.

While Amelia was having her nap,

Mykaela made 2 banana cakes.

We were so busy that I forgot to take

photos of the procedures.

So Mykaela thought that she will do

this pose with the cake!

She is very savvy about cooking.

And she can knit.

We had a very busy day.

it was a shame with the weather,

and the fact that we did not have

the car as Claude had to go to HO.

Next post I will put the videos

She has organised a bike ride and

a picnic in Olympic park.

We all met at 10 am.

Getting ready to go.

Jo thinks Amelia is safer on her bike,

she does not trust Shane to behave...

Amelia love it. It is for them it is an

activity that they can all do together.

Oh she is cheeky.

She spat on her hands and lift

Jo T shit and rub it on...

Mykaela went under the fountain

Jo went too, but Amelia was not impress,

She was making a funny face because of

the spray.

We stopped at a picnic ground with a

children park.

Mykaela always found something to climb.

Shane went to buy all antipasto stuff.

It was a very nice lunch.

Thanks Jo and Shane for a lovely day.

Mykaela has learn to ride a bike without
training wheels in France.

She is very confident.

Jo is going out tonight with her

mother group so they went home

for her and Amelia to have a nap.

Claude and I stayed another

couple of hours.

We rode to Wentworth point.

The bay is full of shipwrecks

Grand ma's doll

I had those boots for Amelia but

they did not fit, the arch of her foot

was too high. I forgot about them,

but Amelia find them and

decided they were for her doll.

The doll could stand.

Amelia was so proud, she is amazing.

The doll was one of my toy I brought

to Australia for my children.

Having no girl I put it in storage.

I look for it for Mykaela but I had

no idea were it was. I found it with

the baby cloth.......

Afternoon Play

Amelia is enjoying a big bowl of

vegemite noodles.

While this was cooking she ate ham and cheese

and after she ate a pear.

She love doing the ironing.

This morning she was watching me

iron her dress, she wanted to press

on the can of starch.

She did not wear the dress after all,

pants were much better fro playing.

here she is playing with her shadow.

You can see 2 bags and a little case.

She is a really good bag lady....
