Thursday - photos at Monti

Tassie is so excited on Thursday mornings. She can't get in the car quick enough for Montissori (Monti). Today is an extra special day, being the children's photo day. So naturally I dressed Tassie in the prettiest dress from the recent shopping spree.

She usually starts with some playdo play.



She loves to paint. I was interested to stay a few minutes this morning and watch her sit at the table, dip the brush in some water and paint with watercolour. My!

Outside there is a large deck where the kindy kids play - the Monti kids (Tassie's group) usually go further down the hill where the play area and rabbits are.

It's hard to see in the photo, but the view of the hills is stunning. The parents appreciate this more than the kids who don't seem to notice!

Can't wait to see the official photos.

Wednesday - planting

Since Tasmin was born three years ago I haven't been able to find time for gardening. But now that we're getting outside to play and the babies aren't running off as much, I decided it was a good time to start planting again. I kept the coriander I'd bought which is sold in plastic to use for cooking, but still has the roots attached. I've always wanted to try this and see if it grows. So now it's in the dirt in a pot and we'll see.







I thought Angus looked funny, like the famous pose of the athlete ready to throw the discus.

Wednesday 20102010

It was a happy start to 20102010, Angus's second birthday. Tassie loves to squeeze in next to him lately, at every opportunity.



We stopped by the park for some playtime before lunch. I love the knitted wrap on this pole. So New York!

Angie slept through lunch, since it interrupted his nap time, but had his little treat later at home. I'm planning to make some of these for the party on Saturday.
