A bit of catch up!

Sack race

Egg and spoon race

Bella and Amalie had a great time.

I didn't realise what a good pic of the other boy picking his nose, and you can barely see Micah, he is turned away,(next to the nose picker, closest to the camera) but he had a great time.

These are from Micah's athletics carnival a couple of weeks ago. He had a great time, they were practicing for weeks doing 30 meter run, egg and spoon race and the sack race. The little boys were so cute and all had a fun time. They had an obstical course and parachute games and heaps of other games and activities organised in between races which was great so they didn't go crazy!

Bella, Amalie and I went along to watch and the girls had fun on the obstical course themselves, and enjoyed all the fun of the afternoon.

Micah only has a week left of school for the year, I think he is really going to miss going to school during the holidays, but he has made some greeat little friends which has been fantastic and I think he is going to love Prep next year, he already wants to go every weekday this year!

We put up the christmas tree on Saturday. I have been excited that this year the kids will be more involved and that it will be so much more fun, but Saturday was crazy. Micah only wanted to put the star on and went on about it from when the christmas tree box was opened, and didn't do one other thing! Bella was great and put on nearly all the baubles, very densely populating the lower branches of the tree, with some branches four or five heavy, and I am talking the one little branch of the many on each bigger branch. But she was so enthusiastic and helped til the end. Amalie fulfilled her toddler role of pulling off every bauble on any branch she could reach, causing a fit from Bell who was frustrated by the constant upsetting of her masterpiece. Fun fun! But at least I have learnt not to have any expectations of my children! They all have their different strengths and abilities and interests! And they are all darlings, but I have enjoyed their bedtime, well after their bedtime, this last week!
