Jacob's 1st day at school

some thoughts and memories of Jacob's 1st day at school:
1. "I spoke to my "buddy" Nicolas today but he always tells me to go play with my own friends. But I don't have any friends there!?"
2. Jacob knows the name of his school now - St Joseph's.
3. Mr Barton (the principle) is the leader of the school in the whole wide world. He is also "a big teacher"
4. For lunch on his first day Jacob had a Vegemite sandwich (he left the crust), a Nutrigrain energy bar, some strawberries, a vanilla custard, some milk and some water.
5. Jacob also learned that there are rules at school. Most important rule is to be very quiet when you go downstairs where Mr Barton is. No talking in the classroom and no yelling.
6. Jacob's shoelaces didn't come undone but apparently heal keeps coming out of his shoe when he walks, so tomorrow we need to make the shoelaces a bit tighter.
7. Jacob didn't need his pencil-case today.
8. The teacher read a story about a lazy duck today. Jacob asked me what lazy means. I explained that it's when you don't want to work, you feel lazy. Then he said he needs to tell this to his teacher tomorrow because she doesn't know what lazy means that's why she asked the class. There you go!
School shmool. School is boring. Wake me up when it's time for recess! He-heee
In the classroom with all his new school friends and parents and teachers.
On the playground before 1st morning assembly.
Drawing a picture of dinosaur. Of course!
Big smile for the camera :-D

Hot summer day

Beach babe with her cool shades.
Working on her tan.
Lots of water fun today.

Kindy Xmas concert

All the parents with their cameras ready :-)
"... then I saw her face, now I'm a believer. Not a trace of doubt in my mine. I'm in love, mmm..." (song from Shrek)
No Santa photos this time. It was too hot outside for poor old Santa, so he gave out the presents inside while parents waited outside.
Mummy's little Christmas pudding.

Xmas picnic

As usual, my photos are all in wrong order. Sorry. This was taken at the end of the day. Luca hurt himself in the game of soccer.
Jacob opening the present. Another Transformer. Optimus Prime. "He's a goodie!" as Jacob would say.
Waiting for Santa.
Thanks Trish for organising! It was a great day.

Just more pics of kids. Lilu 3 months old


I think she might be left-handed. She has started to grab the toys now but always with the left hand.
She really loves bath-time.
Off to have a bath now.
Jacob is such a good big brother! He's my helper :-)

Melbourne Cup hat day :-) Like it?

Lilu - light of our lives

Almost 3 months now. Tre mesi! Tre mesi! :-D
First smiles caught on camera. She's natural, don't you think?


Just look at those chubby cheeks, don't you just want to bite them?!? Soooo cute, it's ridiculous!
Don't get lost in those big blue eyes!

Having a Sunday morning cuddle with big brother.
