Party, Party, Party

What a busy day we had.....with Parties.

Firstly, this morning we went to Alyssa's 5th Birthday Party at Hungry Jacks (same as Burger King). Alyssa is one of Sarah's friends.

Here's all the kids with their Party hats on. They played Party games before munching on Chips & Cheese-burgers.

Then we went onto another Birthday Party. It was for Denise's 30th Birthday. Denise and her daughters go to the Playgroup that we go to on Wednesdays. This is the beautiful Denise.

The party was a Hawaiian Theme...so very colourful. Lots of fun. Everyone looked great. Sarah was very happy to see her friends. Here she is with Chloe.

Sarah appears to have taken over the Karaoke......although I can confirm she did share with everyone. And they danced too. The funniest bit was Sarah doing the Bird Dance. She definitely has the moves.

Sarah enjoyed her first few Swims of Summer....... shivered heaps ....but still would not get out.

Look what I can do Mummy!

Cheeky huh.......as you can see Sarah is coming up with new things everyday. She has been very concerned with "Our Bodies" lately and what is inside them. She's been asking things like...."Why do we have bloods"?
And...."What's in by my heart"? And saying things like....."But we don't cut each other, do we"? So I explained that Special Doctors do the cutting. So then she asked....."But won't my bits come out"? Of course the answer the that is that the Special Doctors also do special sewing.
NOTE:.... I don't know how or why she learnt to climb the door frame!

Snails!!

Far out!! I can't believe it's been so long since I've put something on here.....I mean I know I've been absent but three whole months have flown by! But....I'm back. And I have heaps and heaps of Show & Tell.

But first....I thought I would start with something funny and unbelievable!

SNAILS!

We have a few...............................1000 that is.......

Indulging Sarah.

Further to my last post ......

This morning I got strict breakfast instructions.

Chocolate Toast (which is Nutella between two bits of bread)
with....Cheese, Raisins & Rice Bubbles. (That's inside the sandwich)!

Cut the crusts but NOT the bread.

MMmmmmmm Yummy!

I want something to eat!

"I want something to eat" seems to be the phrase I hear most often at the moment. If it's not that then it's "I want something to eat" The other morning she even said it before she had opened her eye's! Some days I just don't seem to be able to fill Sarah up!

Sometime she get's impatient with me and get's in the pantry herself.

Other times she even makes her own sandwich!!

Brrrrrrr!!!

It's cold man! We are definitely having winter here.

We are having a pretty stormy time. This morning when we got up the ground outside was WHITE!

It had just bucketed down and the Hail on the ground was quite thick. Here are some pics.

It's been freezing all day. Low = 8.1 & High = 14.3

Pea's Anyone!

For those of you that know our Sarah.....you’d know that we struggle to get her to eat vegetables. Unless it’s her usual Potato & Carrot that is. However for the last month or so – every now and again she asks for some peas. Frozen Pea’s. So I give her about 6 – 10 in a little bowl and she will even eat them.

Well last night while I was getting other vegetables ready...she decided to get her own Pea’s. Then I hear this little OHH OH from behind me. I think this is a few more than 6 – 10!!
