SV comes back

 After being away for 3 days and 2 nights away SV came home. Tired but happy with lots of stories to share. EV was super excited to have her back. We celebrated with dumplings and bubble teas.

SV goes to school camp

 SV was so excited to go to her year 6 school camp she was up at 5:30 just so she would be ready. Her sisters were up early too just so we could all walk her up to school together. SV was nervous and excited and happy and sad all at the same time. Once she saw her friends at school though it turned mostly to excitement. Her sisters were a bit sad, particularly EV who cried for quite some time.

EV at Gymboree

 EV has been doing Gymboree for a while and has really been enjoying herself. She does really well in class as she climbs and does all of the activities. She enjoys the other activities too and is learning things like counting. Her coordination is really good and she is able to do a whole lot of complicated movements that some of her peers were struggling with.

Dad taxi to the park

 The girls had all of these birthday parties and TV ended up taxing them all over town. EV was in for the ride as well. To sweeten the deal TV took her to the park for a bit of a play while we briefly waited at the pick up location. She was really happy to run around and use up some of her energy.

Gift wrapping

 They aren't elves and it isn't Xmas, but the girls spent some time wrapping gifts. There are a few birthday parties they are all going to so wrapping gifts was necessary and they all did it together.

More shopping

 We continued doing more shopping for all sorts of things. We ended up doing quite well as we managed to get birthday presents, found new clothes and had a nice lunch.

 

Trying on suits

SV is trying on suits for Uncle Richie and Auntie Jeanna's wedding. It was pretty hard to find a nice one in her size though.
