Amaya and the ducks




Well, it seems like I have been taking lots of photos of Amaya over the past few days, and you might be wondering what else I do with my time..... Well yesterday (and completed today) I transplanted three trees in the front garden and completely weeded one side of the garden!!! (Whilst Amaya was asleep). I have also cooked a great lasagne with a secret ingredient AND a roasted potato and leek soup!

I have been busy. Mark did all of the washing over the weekend whilst i wasn't feeling well, so thats taken care of the washing (probably why i have extra time!)

Today after Amaya and I went to Kindergym, we went to a beautiful park to feed the ducks. It was only 11 degrees, so we dressed up for a typical Winter's day.....

Amaya loved feeding the ducks so much, that she helped herself to the bread! (It was fresh bread!)

Amaya today






Amaya's words for the week are:
Harry (harry and his pocket full of dinosaurs)
Hurry
Sorry
Amen
Row Row (for Row your boat) (this also has actions!)
Dot
Hat

Today Amaya and I did some painting using a paint brush. She totally loved it and cried when it was time to put it away and have lunch. We had paint on the page, a bit on her bib..... NONE on the floor and NONE on me!! She knew exactly what to do with the brush. She dipped it in the water, put the brush on a colour in the palette and then brushed it on the paper.

She also had a new beanie come today (its size 3-6 as her hair is so thick). It has velcro to hold it on!!!

Oh and we also love stickers........

Licking the bowl!!

Amaya has discovered that after mixing together ingredients, the best part is licking the bowl!

Amaya is such a good stirrer

Amaya can cook, again!





Today, I had Amaya and Mark helping me to make cup cakes. Amaya just loves helping and now she likes licking the bowl! She is so very helpful.

Amaya's latest word

Today we were at a friend's house where there were 3 puppies. We weren't sure how she would go, but she absolutely loved them. Consequently, Amaya's new word is puppy.
