December so far....

Joseph has taught himself to shin up poles at school and can now be frequently found sitting in very high places....I'm sure it's fun but it dosn't half give his poor mother a heart attack!! He has asked if we can have a holiday in fiji so he can climb the coconut trees lol!!


Having loads of fun at Playcentre as always...and we had a Mums only day out a few Sunday...a walk in the bush, a stroll in the bush, followed by a luxurious long lunch...cause we're worth it lol!

Samuel helped me put up the Christmas tree...nuff said...lol...Its cool.. he's right into the whole Santa thing...where does he live, how will he get here, how do the reindeer fly....and 'What would you like Santa to bring you Samuel?' "...heaps, heaps of fire engines!!!!'. Went to the Warehouse the other day....'Santa lives here aye Mum' why is that Samuel...'cause its red like Santa' lol!! and I suspect cause of all the toys...Samuel thinks the Warehouse is just a big playground for him to go and fiddle with all the toys...its nightmare trying to go shopping with him cause he is just off on his own mission the whole time...to the toy section!


School Concert and Prizegiving was this week...the kids put on a very cool circus show with jugglers and clowns and unicycles...they did an awesome job..nothing nicer than kids singing...I love having a giggle watching the little ones singing erratically whilst picking their nose or waving madly at mum or the ones who are really into it singing for all they are worth...
Patrick was given a certifitate for achievement in Numeracy...way to go P!! Although afterwards he was more excited that he was allowed to keep the sparkly hat from his band player costume than getting an award lol!!

Some scrappy stuff here...my DT work from last months kit...I like this one..sooo cute!

And I went digi for the last ever Kiwi Jack Me Up...heh, heh...chubby checker!
Check out Niella's cool layout here...she is offering up 3 prizes from her Randomkitsandpieces shop so if you have time to enter a layout this month...you will be in to win!
Last week of term this week...Playcentre Christmas party on Thursday, Joseph's class is having a Pyjama party...lots of fun end of year stuff....have done all the Christmas shopping WOOOOT!!

Today we are off sailing!! Jim's work mate has invited us along on his boat...so better get off and make a picnic and organise the kids...will update with some pics later...

ta ra!

Hi Monique,

Belinda and I would love to be able to email you. We're both on Facebook - look for Belinda Ney and Amanda Menard. Otherwise you can email at menard@iprimus.com.au

Great to see all your photos. I was in New Zealand last week and would have loved to have seen you. We found you through Google. Belinda remembered your married name.

Hope to hear from you.

Amanda
