A busy day

Wednesday 19 January

doing Pilate
Feeding her doll

Playing the "harmonica"

picking flowers.

This big spear grew from

the centre of a cicade.

A couple of year ago we had

a bigger one, a huge one.

New park for Mykaela

Wednesday 12 January

We took Mykaela to the park we went

last week. She had never been there

before. Mostly because I could not

find it.

She went straight to the climbing frame
to the top and over it.
sorry no photo, I was there to
catch her in case she fall.
All morning, no other child went
over the top. some boys went to
the top and down again.

here Amelia is making it turn.
My stomach was unhappy just looking.

plotting !!!!!!

that was fun.....

going up again

snack time

a quicker way to go to the top.

And Amelia followed.

Amelia: "a bee"

It was just a fly but no more posing.

Anna is visiting

Wednesday 12 January

I had to tell Mykaela that it was time to

get up. I think she was just pretending to

sleep.

In the meanwhile Amelia was up before

Claude or I. (6.10am)

I heard her and went to get her before

she had a chance to wake up Mykaela

She was up, fed, dressed, teeth cleaned.

But she had to do it all over again when

Mykaela got ready.

Mayhem here this morning.

When we came back from the park, we went

to say hello to my neighbour Sigrid and her

grand daughter Anna was there.

They had spent the morning at the nursing

home where my neighbour mother is.

She is very sick, they think she is dying.

She will be 100y at the end of the month.

I then offer to have Anna if the nursing home

call again....

12.30 and they were at the door.

It was good for Mykaela to have somebody

to play with while Amelia was having

her nap.
Boy!!!5 people and all wanted a different

sandwich filling!!!

The girls are feeding the rainbow lorrikets.

Anna doing craft.
1: colour in the fish
2: cut it out
3: I did that part. cut slit with a Stanley knife
4: weave some colour strips
5: glue it on a large piece of paper
6: Add undersea world, rock,
seaweeds and other creatures

she loves hand feeding them.

the girls are very busy

the finished pictures

Cromer Park

Wednesday 5 January

I finally found this park.

All winter I have been trying to go there.

After my neighbour telling me that it was

a shady playground and cold in winter, I

stopped looking for it.

It is a really good playground.

a fire truck with lots of movable pieces

The harness on the swing was great,

no falling off.

3 types of slippery dip

a yellow window

under the climbing frame was a

lot more activities but we will

explore this another time.

having fun is a thirsty job.

Amelia wanted me to go on that

merry go round, but I was feeling

sick just looking at her.

a new game and some old ones

Wednesday 5 January 2011

First (real date) blog of the year

This morning I gave Amelia

a new game
with it we are counting and learning
the colours

She likes helping with the

washing.

In the afternoon we had a tea party.

Amelia was wearing undies and did very well

going to the potty chair often and sometime

with results.
