Well that was fun...
Will had two sleep-overs this month at Roberts. Tama came to Kieran's umpiring game and had a great time with Dixie the dog. We went on our first home school excursion to the Swan River at South Perth. Grandparents day at H2H= Good food. LPS Scitech night- Les took the boys and Robert. Kieran went to Michaels for the Rugby. Les took the boys to Lesmurdie Falls. Kieran went to Outdoor Ed Camp. Will and I went Bird Spotting at John Oldham Park. Danny came and stayed for a night and we caught up with him for lunch. We skyped with Brace. The boys had fun on the potion table. They had a campfire and roasted marshmallows. Les took the boys to the Science week festival. Tama had a Hospitalisation familiarisation incursion at Kindy. Merenia turned 15. We had a big Hockey day at PHS... watched four games in a row. Les took Merenia and the boys shopping at Carousel. Will and Robert made a Zombie room. Will and I went and watched a presentation by Dr Derek Muller- we had Sushi for dinner and a very good time. We went Bird watching at G.O Edwards Park. Went to Remida for the first time. The 17's wore headbands for their last game. Will went to Roberts for his birthday. Les and Merenia went flying for the day. Nadya came over for the day.

Yum, yum, yum...
Merenia's birthday cake was good and Les has discovered a regular supply of pretzels at the Belmont IGA. We had a yummy roast Lamb when Danny came and also had a Ham at the end of the month glazed and hot! The boys and I made Carrot Cake and Rice Bubble cakes.

For you...For me?
Birthday presents for Georgia, Merenia and Robert. Baby things for Danny, Layla and Tahlia. Scrapbooking stuff. We went to Crow books twice this month and got books for the little boys. Will brought himself some Pokemon stuff. I brought Will some motivational Pokemon Cards. We got a cherry tree from Isis's family. We got some good scores at the CWA op shop. I made Netball books for the team. Mathletics, Reading Eggs and Remida subs for Will.

Bugger!
Lujca had to cancel on Merenia's birthday Tama was sick in the strangest way over a whole night. I also was sick a lot of the month with ear, migraine, and tummy issues.

Hooray!
Hockey and Netball are finished!! Another rental inspection passed. We finally set up the potion table/cubby corner. Kieran scored a goal in the Two's last game of the season.

Etc...
Kieran did some driving practice with Me. Merenia had a job interview at KFC. Tama started Speech Sounds group.

Seen and Heard...

Will asked me: Is Infinity like death for numbers? And then went on to describe to me his concept of infinity as a box (complicated). Today he asked me what does 'persecuted' mean.... holy cow! Halfway through explaining I realised he meant prosecuted- so I had to do that one as well. And the final kicker was explaining 'salvation' as in the Salvation Army.

When Danny was here he was playing Hide and Seek with the boys and Tama had him county to "Eleventy".

Tama: "It's like I'm wonder woman as a boy!"

Merenia was talking about a girl who wrote a mean letter. Tama: "Did it have like scribbles on it?"

In the car Tama said he wanted to try some Toxodon meat. He said he was going to catch a Sabre Tooth Cat in the wild. Train it so it doesn't hurt people in our family and then have it catch him a Toxodon for him to eat.

Will tells me he is "actually shaking a bit with excitement". Why? Because he's going to see a presentation by a Uranium Documentary Scientist!
