Some like it HOT

Todays LO of my nephew Simon and his favourite 'spice-it-up sauce' - Bajan HOT pepper sauce!

When Tessa changed to her new school - (but still at preschool level) she really felt like it was her first day of school. She was so excited to start in "big" school and be together with her big sister. She could hardly fall asleep the night before and woke several times. She is now officially "not a baby anymore, but a big, big girl - just look mom how much I've grown!"

Fairy dolls

Latest digital pics. Spur of the moment inspiration - found a empty gemframe. Turned out that Tessa loved the picture of her as a fairy, had it on the side of the bath when bathing and then fell asleep with the picture - pretty good reward - I think!

Yada at 1.5 yrs.

Tessa 10 months

a lazy day by the pool

I should really get my scanner working, Tessa is started to draw things that we can decifer, before only she could tell. Suddenly there is mass production of family portraits and they are so darn cute. maybe I'll give the scanner another go tomorrow, the silly scanner is basically brand new but probably broke down moving to Barbados... The main problem is finding the manual and disc in my (?) ever growing pile of boring sort me outs.
Today has been a day of relaxation for me and Tessa, we spent the day at the pool swimming and pretending to be Dora the explorer and Doras mom, we also had a map which apparently only spoke spanish - Ola! Bo and Simon went fishing - but mostly snorkled, Yada spent her day with a friend baking cinnamon sticks in a little playoven, that works (I remember having one of those as a child and making scrambled eggs and melting chocolate - but at seperate times ofkorsh LOL). yada also got into - webkinz.com - a cyberpet it seems like lots of fun - but having a webpet to care for will mean wanting to spend more time on the pc. anyhow proble solved can't be found on the island.
