Fun in the sun

August update

As the warmer weather rolls in we are enjoying picnics, parks and beaches yet again. Tyler is learning how to write her name and we are still trying to work out whether she is left or right handed (I think right) as she likes to swap her hands around. She's holding a pencil corrrectly and cutting with scissors too -- which means she's enjoying lots of craft time. Sienna is putting two words together now and has a massive vocabulary (EASILY over 50 words). She's started running which is hilarious as it looks like a combination of running and skipping. Both girls love reading and spend hours with their books on mummy and daddy's laps -- they love adventuring to the library and choosing their books (and destroying the place!). They love dancing to club music in the mornings while daddy gets dressed for work and Tyler especially loves the guitar. They have also a new hobby which drives me mad, banging on the table at dinner time together and laughing (see pics). They enjoy cooking us food in their make-believe kitchen. It's adorable how they always cook their favourite "lamb". Even Sienna says lamb now when I ask her what she wants for dinner. Sienna is 16 months and Tyler is 3.25 years x

Which is which?

Tyler starts preschool

Our little big girl started school in Term 3 and had a very good first day. Only a few little tears to say goodbye to mummy but she was soon joining in the activities and making new friends. She had a great time and made it through the entire day without wanting to come home. Her teacher Jill commented on what a gorgeous little girl she is and how she is very gentle, friendly, kind and sweet. She came home with lots of stories of her day including making a new friend. She couldn't remember her name but she had "purple pants all the way to the bottom". She made beautiful paintings, played with playdough and played on the equipment outside. I think she feels right at home there. We are very proud of our little pumpkin.

July 2010

Tyler is becoming quite the little artist drawing pictures of her family, stars, moons and lots more. She's very quick and picks things up as soon as you teach her - she knows her address, can easily count to 20 and is learning how to spell her name. Tybear's still the same loving, vivacious, beautiful soul who loves playing and having fun. She's starting preschool next term and mummy and Sienna will really miss her (lots).
Sienna knows all her body parts from her head to her toes and is a huge talker with a big scream! Such a clever cookie... She just blows us away with how capable she is. She picks things up so quickly and seems wise beyond her years.
