Discovery

Although we've shown the girls this blog before, the idea of it never really caught there attention until today... Keira, after dropping her mouse, accidentally clicked it while picking it up, selecting the link to our blog from the browser's toolbar...

They were both very surprised to see themselves and have since been exploring the pages and remembering so many of their past adventures... Finally the true value of daddy's efforts are being appreciated by the girls...

After our big walk, it was time to focus on new discoveries...  Claire's news for the week required her to produce step-by-step instructions... She decided to make pancakes (purple one's to be precise...).

Claire managed to prepare and cook a full batch of pancakes... When it came time for the final photo, dad placed the peanut butter, nutella and maple syrup around the pancakes... But Claire (who's obviously much more thoughtful than dad) said no... Some of her classmates may be allergic to nuts, and she didn't want them to feel left out...so it was just maple syrup in the photo for her news!

Also on the path of discovery was Keira who in the last couple of weeks has completed her preschool orientation sessions and is super excited that her bestie's are all going to be joining her at North Rocks PS next year!

This week also signalled the start of a new education (hopefully)...with the girls both having trial sessions on the Piano...

And the end of the session, Claire came over to us, and so matter-of-factly stated, "Dad, you need to buy a piano"... 

After all this learning, it was a well deserved end to the day by celebrating Lucia's 5th Birthday...

Followed by an afternoon in the pool (complete with cookies n cream ice cream) with Iris and Irvin and their cousin Veronica...

And its still on Saturday!!!
