Culture
28 February 2010We had a lovely morning at the Art Gallery of NSW today with Sarah (with Beatrix) and Rach. We were excited by the art, especially all the paintings of the horses and the b**bies. Oh, and the train video installation.

Oh, and we loved running around in the bits that didn't have any art

Trolleys
Our latest gift from Nanna - trolleys! A very big hit. Lucky our babies like a bumpy ride.26 February 2010
Black Star Patisserie
So the patisserie in Newtown was a great hit. They were a bit shocked when we ordered 5 fluffies and asked where the kids were - so quiet and demure are our two broods!

Two years corrected!
9 February 2010Two years corrected today! There is a lot to smile about. We have had so many magical moments, and Beatrix, Harper and Lily are going from strength to strength.
Their speech is going great guns and they come out with amazing statements on a regular basis. Tonight Beatrix sang all of Twinkle Twinkle and Harper all of Baa Baa Black Sheep (Lily was overcome by stage nerves).
Harper can tell you how to get to "our house" from anywhere in the neighbourhood and is always checking on the well-being of her sisters (and everyone else) - at the first sign of unhappiness or pain she asks "You okay?". In particular, Harper enjoys doing puzzles and playing trains.
Beatrix is the epitome of fairness and always makes sure that everyone has one of whatever is going, and always tidies up after everyone else, especially her "sisters" (a favourite word)
. Beatrix loves to play with her little people, making sure they are all safe in bed.Lily has the cheekiest nature and gets away with almost anything...except that her sisters are more than happy to dob her in! Ah the innocence of youth and a lack of awareness of the ability to tell an untruth. Lily loves reading and has the signs of a budding Picasso (although the Grand A thinks it is more Jackson Pollock).
All three girls love to meet guests at the front door with a rambunctious hulabaloo, and often set up camp on the doorstep in wait of expected visitors.
And to mark their second(ish) birthday, Lily marked the occasion by jumping/falling/bounding of the spare bed (in "Timmy's room") and knocking herself out. The ambulance came (Renee reports the paramedics were cute) and Dad arrived shortly thereafter - a big scare for all adults involved and great fun for the three musketeers as they inspected the inside of the ambulance, had their pulses taken and saw the lights whirring. All's well that ends well.
It is an amazing world to be in, with our three.
Vehicularly motivated
