We took these photos after church with the girls in there matching dresses from grammy.Its funny to see all there different personalities and how they are SO over getting photos together... our family just keeps growing, next time all thekids are together there will be maree and pablos new born baby too....

Alicia did great on her first day at a new school today.  Her new school has almost 3times as many kids as her last school.  Our morning was alot better too with more time to get everyone ready. I think she looks cute in her green and white uniform.

lecys last day at Milperra school

Our toothless Alicia has only been back at school for a week and half and started grade 1. The travel to her school is taking about half an hour and is a little bit of a struggle getting 3 kids out the door to get her there on time.  Anyways i made a quick decision  yesterday, well not quick it took all day for me to decide but i made the calls and we picked up her new uniform to change her school to the one closest to  home and where her friends from church go to as well.

I was worried about how lecy would take it....but she was great and is looking forward to going to a new school and making new friends and mostly catching the bus.  I hope it is a good thing for her and will end our morning chaos and contentions.  Her teacher from last year and the office ladies all said she will be missed and is a lovely girl....which was nice to hear and her little friends were all hugging her ..making this weak mum get a little  teary too. I will post her first day  tomorrow her new uniform is green ,I'm nervous for her but im sure she will be o.k.

Tylers first day of preschool

Tyler was so excited for his first day today.  He was in the bathroom cleaning his teeth singing his own song"PRE-SCHOOL BOY, PRE-SCHOOL BOY". 

                                              

He came home with a painting and i asked him what it was a picture of and he said"The Whole World" . On the way home he showed us what a day at pre-school does to a 3 yr old. 

Hans Christmas present "Sydney international tennis"

Hans has always wanted to go to the Australian Open since he moved here....this is the next best thing.  We watched Marty Fish from U.S.A and Peter  Lucek from A.U.S  It was a fun date night together.  Even if U.S.A won :)
The pictures are not that clear because i accidently formatted my memory card and after taking it to get recoverd....this is what i got back.
This one is funny...we didnt realise alicia was there too..we were actually enjoying a kid free night.
