Big girl!

After trying unsuccessfully in the summer to get Alice out of nappies, she became very motivated when she came back to nursery and most of her friends had quit them. So for the last few weeks now we've hardly ever put nappy on her in the day. And last night she went to bed without nappy and didn't have an accident! We're so proud of her!!! Our little girl is getting big...

Impressed

I guess I'm biased but I think Elias' drawings are really good!

Forest Sunday

Yesterday the forest group started again. The concept has changed slightly (for the better I think) and it is now a family event.

We all met up at 9.30 in Lida. Then the big children went away with their leaders and the small ones stayed behind with their parents and the leader. With the little ones we looked for autumn colored leaves, played a few games and just had a nice time in the forest.

I had volonteered to make the fire so I left the little group and Alice and David behind at 11 and made the fire. At 11.30 the Mulle group (the big kids) came back and we all had lunch together. The session was over then, but the kids wanted to go and look at a space ship at the top of the hill so we all went there.  





Elias then wanted to pick some blueberries and we managed to get enough for one pie that we made when we came back (the rest are bought berries).  Unfortunatelly I undercooked them a bit, but they still tasted nice. As a bonus we made some cinnamon rolls as well. Yummy yummy in my tummy!




Hours of fun..




On Saturday I took Alice to the park while Elias was at the dancing with David...
