But then we thought we should do some more eating. And more drawing. And more eating. We love coming to Benji's! 27 March 2o011.

Asleep. Awake. More chocolate.
We had a great day playing at Benji's today. Didn't see much of Mum - she was happy talking to Juzi and Joe - how boring! We played so much we had to have a nap all together in the big bed.

Flat out like a lizard drinking
Here we are at Dragon Park on 25 March 2011 with some of our SSMBA mates. Din't ask us why, but we wanted to eat our fruit lying down. Flat out. But then we found Mum's sunnies.And Nanna's hat.And then we found the dragon! (aka blue tongued lizard). Which was, as they say, flat out like a lizard drinking!

Anzacs - first attempt
More of Mum's craziness, making us do things 6 weeks early. This time we're pleased she did, as her recipe was cr@p and needs a LOT of work!19 March 2011But here we are making Anzac biscuits. We got to eat one each before Dad surreptitiously threw them in the bin...But don't our skirts from the Grand A look great ;-)

An attempt at fame
18 March 2011 Well, it's Multiple Birth Awareness Week and we organised for the local tabloid to come and meet some MB families for a piece to promote the Club and get some community understanding. The photographer came, but had no kid-sense and ended up taking shots of those that couldn't walk as the others (ie ours) proved too difficult! The article that appeared was a disappointment - focussed on a university study on twin relationships rather than the practicalities of day to day life and local issues! Ah, next time we'll go for a respectable publication.Many positives from the day at Kyeemagh, though! Harper and Beatrix learnt to clime a spider web to a new platform (=new fear for mum).
Easter is only 6 weeks away
Content warning - Note to Grandparents and other significant "Grands" - read at the risk of ruining your own Easter surprises.
So Mum being the editor of the newsletter has its benefits - we get to be the guinea pigs for all her crazy craft ideas. It generally means we do everything 6 weeks ahead of schedule, but practice makes perfect!

Beatrix liked the starsLily liked the glitter paintAnd we all thought the "fairy dust" glitter was egg-tastic!

Mon petit choux-fleur
All three year olds eat brussell sprouts with gusto, don't they? So what's the fuss?
Here we are playing a new game called "mushroom head". Mum and Dad played too but we woudln't tell them the rules, and just bossed them around a lot.
And here we are when we were pressed for further detail about the nature of said game.
But really, we have the old parents wrapped around our little fingers!

Sharona
Welcome to my hair salon. My name is Sharona and I will be styling your hair today. But I have to be able to get it done in 8 seconds and with exactly the right hair tie and while the client is moving around like a worm and her sisters don't happen to make a negative remark. It made it to school in this french plait (a first attempt, I know I have to practice) but was gone by lunch. 7 March 2011. Oh, and somehow Sharona managed to get herself appointed Co-President of the Preschool Executive Committee. Oops...
The Grimke sisters
The Grand A and Gran, also known as the Grimke sisters*, in Gran's front yard where her garden - once a patch of bare earth, is flourishing. Ah the silver princess gums!
* living in Canada we had a great card game that was all about wonderful women doing great things in history. The Grimke sisters were always favourites for their incredibly dour expressions. Noe a family colloquialism.
