First Dance Class

Molly went to her first ever dancing class yesterday afternoon. It was a free trial to see if she liked it or not. Looks like we have a weekly commitment on Tuesday afternoons for a while.

Flowers for Mummy

Molly noticed that we had some flowers in our front garden and then one by one picked them and brought them to me.

I am pleased to report she did leave a few in the garden "for the bees".

Go Fly a Kite

Last weekend was super windy so Molly took advantage of the weather and flew her kite.

The Big Bike Trial

Max had an impromptu ride on Molly's old bike. Seems he might be ready for a big bike sooner than we thought. Don't worry he didn't ride without a helmet for more than a minute.

I love Dave's face in this shot. So surprised, yet proud of his clever boy.

Anyone Home?

The first place Max runs when he gets out the front door is to the next door neighbour's house to visit his little mate Jack.

This day he wasn't home so Max decided to tidy up their garden for them.

Cupcakes

Now that we have found a great dairy and egg free chocolate cake recipe that Max can eat, baking is much more of a family affair. Molly and I decided to make some cupcakes one day in the school holidays.

Once they were cooked I had to take a few photos. Molly was not all that impressed with waiting to tuck into the cakes.

Just one more photo as Max is grabbing for them now...

And then the time came to eat them.

And a special moment shared. Molly loves her brother "to bits!!"
