Mozart's Piano Concerto No1 in F major

Ok maybe not but we were impressed with Molly's first time at a piano.

This was taken nearly 6 months ago when Molly was just 2 and she was trying out a barbie piano at the Target toy sale. Finally YouTube is cooperating with me and we have been able to upload it.

The Healing Power of the Christmas Tree

"I'm not feeling well Mummy!"


"I better lie down under the Christmas tree."


"There. That's better!"

Christmas at the Farm

Our Playgroup Christmas party was held on a farm this year. It promised to be a great day and then the weather turned on us! We couldn't pass up an opportunity to see Santa so we got out our rain gear and off we went...

First stop some billy tea and damper. Mmmmmm


Max stayed warm and dry inside his rain cover. He was the only dry person there.


"Can we eat it now Mummy?"


Next stop the cow milking demonstration.
Molly's comment, "He's pulling her doodle!"


Molly was happy to pat the cow but no way was she "pulling her doodle!"


Next was the sheep shearing demonstration. You can see I was a bit soggy by this stage!


A quick ride on the sheep before lunch.


And look who stopped by......with presents!


Here is my best attempt at a group shot!
Santa is trying desperately to hold onto his beard while Max gives it a good hard tug!

It was worthwhile braving the weather for a fun day out. Molly had a ball jumping in puddles all the way back to the car where she changed into dry clothes and promptly fell asleep.

Thanks to all our playgroup friends for a wonderful year. We'll see you again in 2007!

M&M Going for a Drive

Molly: Put your seatbelt on Max
Max: Are you sure you know how to drive this thing?


















Molly:
Hold on, here we go!
Max: Oh no! I can't watch!


















Molly: What is his problem Daddy?
Max: Will you look where you are going?!


















Max:
This is fun! Move over and let me have a turn!
Molly: Hey, hey! Hands off the wheel buster!

Baby's First Christmas

Well the tree is up and Max's first Christmas has begun.


While this is technically Molly's third Christmas, it is really the first time she "gets it". We have talked a lot about Santa and she is very excited about the prospect of presents. We have an advent calendar and some presents under the tree which she now understands are not all for her and must be left wrapped until Christmas morning. When we talked about asking Santa for a trampoline she suggested we ask Daddy instead so we can have it now! See what I mean? She gets it!

Molly helped me decorate the Christmas tree and is mesmerised by the lights. She gets a kick out of seeing it every morning. The idea of leaving all of the decorations on the tree and look but don't touch is slowly getting in, but there are times she just can't resist taking some of the "toys" as she calls them off the tree to play with. Fortunately they aren't fragile.
