Amy & Naomi

Amy and Declan enjoyed painting. They discovered that you could make handprints by painting their hand and then pressing it onto the paper! Wylie, Dougal, Gemma, Victoria, Jack, Alex, Jessica, William, Amy and Declan completed the obstacle course several times! The course focuses on developing the children’s balancing and jumping skills.

Amy, Declan, Baxter and Jessica also spooned the sand into the top of the funnels and pretended it was an icecream cone!

Amy put these two together!

Amy loved painting! She even experimented with painting with two brushes at a time! While outside today, Wylie, Jack, Alex, Jessica, Mikayla, Amy, Declan, Dougal, Riley, Victoria, Sierra, Katie, William, Lochlan and Gemma did some woodwork. They found the pieces of timber they wanted and then nailed them together using a hammer! There were some fantastic creations! Dougal, Victoria, Alex and Amy played with the funnels. They discovered that if they lined up their funnels one under the other and then put sand in the top funnel, the sand would fall through all the funnels!

Jessica and Amy threw the tennis ball to each other using the special “ball catchers”! They discovered that it was easier to simply pass the ball to each other!

We were down in Brisbane doing some shopping and seeing a friend and we thought that while we were down here we would go to the 'beach'... I am not sure if you can call Scarborough at Redcliffe a beach though. Naomi put her feet in the water and was not really sure about it or the sand... but she didn't cry like the first time Amy went to the beach... so that is good.

Wylie, Jack, Mikayla, Jessica, Amy, Alex and Katie enjoyed completing the obstacle course and although there were a few wobbles, they all got to the end eventually! Jessica, Gemma and Amy had fun crawling around like millipedes in their “enclosure”. They all curled up into balls just like a millipede when they were frightened!

Well Grandad (Charlie) bought the girls a swing set and slide... we haven't finished assembling it all yet... but the girls LOVE it... we have to go out everyday if not more to go for a 'fing' as Amy says. We bought a special seat swing so Naomi could go on as well... and now we have to push Omi and Amy at the same time. Mummy had being pushing Amy and Omi for what felt like hours... so asked Daddy to have a go at pushing Amy in Omi's swing... thank goodness for a laptop and wireless network... that helps Daddy have more fun!

After many hours of window shopping we finally decided on bunk beds for the girls... that can be also be individual single beds... and the various styles of beds... we finally agreed on the this one set. Since both the girls are Fairy crazy we are slowly getting around to adding things to make it a bit of a fairy haven... like having flowers and beetles and unicorns and of course FAIRIES! The beds arrived ready to assemble on Friday last week... but they forgot the posts... and since we were away on the weekend they had to wait for a free moment to actually be assembled... so when Amy went to kindy on Tuesday... Fairy Mummy put one of the beds together and Elf Daddy took the old bed out to the garage. Wednesday night when Elf Daddy and Fairy Amy went out for story time at the library and to go to the video shop... Fairy Mummy started on the other bed... but the library was closed cause of half the town having a blackout... to which Fairy Amy and Elf Daddy came home to catch Fairy Mummy...
