chicky chick 8.july.2012

 H and I spent some time together unpacking the dressing up clothes today. I don't know what the fascination is but all three girls L-O-V-E to put on these chick hats from Ims & Flick's 1st proper Halloween costumes.

hyper-drive hula hoop 7.july.2012

H had a fabulous time at her friends' triple birthday party. We had no idea she could properly hula hoop, especially not at warp speed!!! That blue blur is her hoop. :)

end of year BBQ 6.july.2012

Spen and the kids had a super time at the annual PTFA BBQ, burgers, hotdogs and fab ice creams!

watermelon 5.july,2012

The three littlies and I went to the annual teddy bear's picnic in the park, saw a super magician and generally had a whale of a time. Ims and Flick spent ages giggling and throwing their teddies (donkey & bunny dressed in lil E's clothes) in the air. E was only interested in the watermelon. It was his first time tasting it and he was definitely a fan!

patriotic, if confused! 4.july.2012

 

Nice to see a bit of sisterly love during our bbq! When I asked H why we celebrate the 4th (after discussing it all week, rather delicately) I expected she would say something about taxes, the King, colonies perhaps... but was told that it was a celebration of surviving in the new world followed up by asking when we were going to have our turkey dinner. Yikes, confusing Thanksgiving and 4th of July!! We clearly need to spend more time discussing American subjects in this house.

This picture may not look like much, but it is a shot of Master E, in his bed. Yes, his bed. He went into it at 830pm and stayed there until 430am. In our house that is a small miracle!

face paint, up late july.2.2012

Two lucky little girls got to stay up late and go get their faces painted. They weren't excited, at all ;)
