My Girls . . .

Best Friends! Laura and Ace wear eachother out quite happily.

Never seen Laura run so much.

Marisa's favourite toy bunny - you can see she loves eating it!

Last Saturday there was a story in the local paper saying that the Toowoomba Fairy Shop had had its fairy bear stolen. Fairy Bear sat just outside the shop for all of the kids to hug. Yesterday Laura wrote a letter and drew a picture for Queen Fairy Mandy and this morning she brought me her plainest bear and wanted to make it into a fairy bear for the Fairy Shop. So I sewed a fairy costume in 1/2 an hour flat and by the time we got to the fairy shop she'd decided her once plain bear was much to fancy to give away and it has become her new favourite!

I must have commented to Laura that I can't sew very well and wasn't sure how I'd make fairy wings and she told me (as I've told her about things a number of times) - "Just keep doing it every day and you'll get really good at it Mummy!"

Funny Times!

Laura the Clown - those face paints are still going down a treat; though this clown is slightly spooky looking!

Aunty Weeza is now in Toowoomba staying at our house - Laura is very excited to have Weeza, Pat and Ace in Toowoomba with us.
The girls hanging out on the lounge. Marisa loves your rings Aunty Helen.

(I don't think she had to hold Cyril down for too long to get him looking royal!)

Laura and Marisa - Both girls are growing quickly up here in QLD - must be the fresh air on the top of this mountain. It's been getting cooler and it's very cozy for the girls watching ABC kids together in the mornings.
