Scooter Found

On Friday night Dyllan, Ellie and I went down to the river to meet some friends at the park. It started to rain, so we headed to the car- and in the flurry to get the kids out of the rain, I must have left her scooter on the footpath next to the car. Doh.

I posted "missing" messages all over Facebook and littered the town with "lost Scooter" signs.

This morning I got a text from a runner saying she had found dyllans scooter next to my sign! Success!

I think I'm more happy than Dyllan!

My job as scooter detective has come to an end... Now what should we do today?!

Ballet outfit ready to go!

Dyllan starts ballet again this Thursday- so today we got her new ballet clothes and shoes. She is SOOO excited. I think more excited about the new outfit than the class. Haha.

Dyllans First Day of Kindy

Dyllan was so excited to go to kindy this morning. She couldn't wait to play with playdough, glue things, and do arts and crafts. She fit right in and couldn't wait for her day to start.

Dyllan will be going to kindy on a "five day fortnight" so she goes Mondays, Tuesdays and every other Wednesdays.

I already can't wait to pick her up and ask her all about her first day..

Happy Fourth Birthday Dyllan Bug!

Happy Birthday Dyllan. I can't believe it's been 4 years since the day you were born.

"The days are long but the years are short" it's so true!

What a year it's been- you've really become a little lady. You are such a joy to hang out with.

Yunny and Lozzo have arrived!

Yunny and Lozzo have come up to visit for Dyllans fourth birthday. The girls are so excited! Looking forward to showing them our new town and life for the next few days!!

Date night with my girls

Dan is out of town tonight so I decided to make things easy and do a date night.

We had some friend over this afternoon for a play in our pool- the walked them home and kept walking to our local sushi restaurant. We ate in and spent a total of $5 (I think the lady made a mistake- I wasn't about to correct her though.. Maybe she felt sorry for me?!) and had a nice sushi dinner (avocado baby boxes for Dyllan and Ellie and 2 tuna rolls for me). We walked home- then got straight back in the pool. No need for a bath on these hot nights. The pool will do.

The girls helped me fold laundry- then off to bed.

Hot Chip Sunday

Sunday we joined some friends for a day trip to Bribie Island (about an hour north of Brisbane) for a swim and chips on the beach.

Kids had fun digging in the sand and swimming on rafts, while the adults relaxed on the shore with some music and cold drinks. Oh and of course "hot chip sandwiches" which our friends introduced us to.. You buy the chips from the fish and chip shop, buy a loaf of white bread from the bakery- bring your own butter and tomato sauce - put it all together.. and viola! A hot chip sandwich!
