Ballerina Tyler

Tyler is starting ballet this year and is totally up for it! She cried taking her ballet shoes off in the shop and has been "practising" her ballet moves around the house at least every hour since. She says "Tyler ballet" and holds onto the pretend bar and does these amazing leg movements that leave me wondering where the hell she learnt this from. So far ballet is a hit and we have not even been to the first class yet.

Summer lovin'

Luna Park, barbies, parties, meeting cousins, Wiggles concert, Dan's birthday, beaches -- so far it's been a great summer and the girls are having a ball with daddy home. Such a treat!

Our South African cousins and aunties - The Kupers, Heather and Jenny - came to visit and we had such a wonderful time getting to know our very special family who unfortunately live so far away. Such a shame we don't live closer as all the kids got on like a house on fire and it's quite sad that my kids are so far away from them all.

We're successfully toilet training Tyler (so far it's only been 1 week and she's got it!) and it's been so much easier than I imagined. I guess, once they get it it's easy. So far we've had few accidents and she's doing great. Very impressed with how quickly she's gotten it! Sienna's started crawling and she's a very talkative little thing with a huge personality. She can clap her hands and wave hello on cue too.

Drywors afternoons

They have South African blood obviously, because the meer mention of the word "drywors" sends both girls into a spin. Especially Tyler. We are loving our arvo walks, drywors in hand, and daddy at home. Such a great summer holiday we're having...
