Sisterly meeting

Here are some photographs of SV meeting MV for the first time. SV was very excited and very happy to meet MV. She was curious but respectful, and wanted to give MV a special birthday.

MV's first day

Here are a couple of photographs of MV on her birth day. We are very happy to have her in our family.

Dinosaur book

SV is becoming quite self reliant and self entertaining (for a toddler). This is a very good thing with the arrival of MV in the household. SV still very much likes dinosaurs after watching the movie The Land Before Time. This particular book is good because it's full of information which she is learning. It also helps her with pronunciation of multi-syllabic words.

Sticker tattoos

In the morning SV thought it would be a good idea to give all of us sticker tattoos. We think she just got tired of having some of these stickers around and wanted to use them up. We all had fun with them. KT's tummy proved to be a popular piece of sticker real estate.

Swimming with a noodle

SV is learning to swim with a pool noodle instead of the water wings. She is starting to like it and it gives her a better feel for the water, or at least that's what we think.

Exploring Summer Hill

Uncle Nick invited us out for lunch at a local hamburger place in Summer Hill. Although before we left SV set up her pillow throne to be listen to her story. After lunch we worked off some of the hamburger by going for a walk and exploring the neighbourhood. We decided that it was quite a nice place with a little village centre.

Walking her dog

Happy Mothers Day!

To celebrate SV took her dog to the shops to make sure KT had a lovely breakfast.

Nanosaurus

SV and TV put together a T Rex made of tiny lego pieces. It was a fun project for both of them, with SV probably being the more excited of the two. She was very helpful despite her short T Rex arms which she was pretending to be.
