Matthew:
* is 8 and in Grade 4 and loving it
* got a “Student of the Week” Award the first week back for “his mature attitude, his lovely manners and for a great start to Year 4” (I think he pays his teachers, he has gotten it first week every year).
* has had a massive (social) maturity leap over the holidays and has become more boyish, is standing up for himself and won't be taking any garbage from any of the bullies at school this year
* loves sport…all sports – watching and playing, statistics. I call him my walking almanac of cricket and AFL - there isn't much he can't tell you about the sport, the players, recent games etc.
* is cricket obsessed and spends most of the day with a bat in hand, dressed in one of his Australia jerseys and white cricket pants or green tracksuit pants (yep tracksuit pants in Brisbane's summer heat...insane!!!)
* loved going to the beach cricket on the Gold Coast
* can hit a tennis ball (hanging on a string from the patio roof) with a cricket stump repeatedly (around 50 times in a row) and quite effortlessly
* has read all of the Harry Potter series (read #6 and #7 in 5 weeks!) and has started re-reading them again (half way through #2)
* loves High School Musical movies, Indiana Jones movies
* loves The Suite Life of Zac and Cody, Hannah Montana, Suite life on Deck, Wizards of Waverley Place
* would sell his soul for KFC, Cadbury's caramel chocolate rolls or cake (especially Nanny's banana cake)
* eats strawberry jam sandwiches for lunch everyday
* is really great mates with Stephen (constantly says "hey Dad")
* loves kisses and hugs from his mummy (as long as no-one is around)
* hates colouring in
* loves playing Stephen's Command and Conquer games
* loves Miley Cyrus, Jonas Brothers, High School Musical soundtracks
* loves his MP3 player and has about 25 songs on it but asks daily for more to be added
* loves using MSN and the internet
* hates most fruit except bananas and apples
* hates (and is a bit scared of) dentists especially Dr McDermott at Chermside who yelled at him and was completely unprofessional while fixing his teeth over the school holidays. While Matthew was sooky during the procedure (and fully admits it too!) I would not recommend taking your worst enemy to him let alone an 8 year old child. Problem is now we have to find another good dentist and convince Matthew that the new dentist will not act like the other idiot!
* When I meal plan his choices are crumbed steak and vegies or burritos
* is very much like his father
* Frustrates me because he gets a thought in his head and can't function until he says what he is thinking or has his question answered
* Wears size 4-6 pants (he's small and has no butt or hips) but size 10 school shirt (size 6-8 t-shirts though) and size 13 shoes.
* can't understand why mum fusses when he wants to go out in his daggy clothes
* Favourite colour is purple
* Had a problem with his freckles last year and thought he was ugly but this year he is starting to see what I see – a gorgeous and handsome face with a few adorable sun-kissed freckles!
* He's a great kid and I am so proud of him!
Emily
* is 6 and in Grade 1 and loving it
* has formally learnt the letters 's', 't', 'a', 'i', 'p', 'n' and their sounds and associated Jolly Phonics actions, and 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and how to write them properly.
* is confident and resilient but needs to be reassured that she is definitely doing it right
* loves swimming (I think she may have been a mermaid in her previous life)
* is responsible beyond her years
* takes great care of Sarah including helping her wash her hair "don't worry mum, you can go, I'll help her"
* is dying to be able to read properly. She tried to teach herself to read over the holidays (didn't need our help, apparently she can learn by herself!)
* Yeah she's still stubborn and determined
* loves glitter and drawing colourful pictures
* is forever leaving "I {heart}U Mum/Dad/Sarah/Matthew/Nanny/Mama" notes
* made some great friends last year including Paige, Holly, Emily J, Rebecca
* is best of friends with her cousin Jasmine and loves spending time with her
* loves McDonald's mini crispy snack wraps, prawns, strawberries, tuna, noodles, chocolate custard, chicken jugglers... really she will try and eat most things
* eats ham, lettuce, carrot and cheese wraps or vegemite sandwiches for lunch but likes a bit more variety in her lunchbox than Matthew does
* her choice of treat is always different and she will often pick different novelty lolly items eg Nerd ropes, Hello Kitty lollipops etc
* Idolises her father
* loves "huggles" from me and kisses from daddy
* loves colouring in but isn't terribly fussed that all homework at the moment is colouring in each night...she wants "real" homework
* loves playing "darlings" with Sarah, swinging on the swings, cart-wheeling
* loves Hannah Montana, "Big Cook, Little Cook", H20: Just Add Water,
* loves gymnastics "it's so me!" LOL! she hated ballet "it's so not me!"
* loves most fruit except bananas - she HATES bananas even the smell makes her cringe
* when I meal plan she asks for: crumbed sausages, honey soy chicken, family pie
* wears size 6-7 clothes and size 13 shoes (size 1 school shoes), size 8 school uniforms.
* loves wearing pretty clothes (especially skirts) and looking nice
* likes to brush her fringe and sweep it across her forehead
* can wash her own hair and can now put it up herself, although still needs a little practice ;)
* favourite colour is pink
* recently went through a stage of saying that her nose stuck out too far, that she was fat and was not eating a lot. We had a big chat about thinking positively, how some people develop a sickness where they think they are fat and it ends up making them really really sick and how she is perfectly healthy, fit and definitely not fat and she has stopped thinking she is fat.
* I admire Emily so much because she is such a go-getter and doesn't accept that she won't be able to do something, she just keeps trying and trying until she can do it!
Sarah
* is 3 and in pre-prep one day at week at Mother Duck
* knows most of the letters and their sounds and has picked up the Letterland program at Kindy really quickly
* can count to around 30 without help and up to 100 with a little help of the '...ty' numbers
* has a fabulous grasp of language, talks unbelievably well
* has 2 mums: 1) me - the mother who carried her for 9 months and gave birth to her & 2) Emily - the 'mother' who is raising her LOL!
* still says "menana" (banana), "melightful"(delightful), "malicious" (delicious)
* when you ask her something she will often say "I have NOOOO idea"
* thinks it is hillarious that when she crosses her eyes and looks at her nose she can see 2 of whatever is in front of her and will point to it and say "oooh which one is real"
* loves swimming and over this summer has been able to swim without her jacket but still puts it on before going in the pool. Has gained a lot of confidence and will now jump in the pool
* adores Emily and really misses her when she is at school but gets a bit over having them home over the holidays
* calls Emily and Matthew "the kids" eg "do we have to pick the kids up soon?", "do you want me to tell the kids it's bedtime?" or "Can we get some for the kids?"
* loves books and will happily grab a book and read to herself. Faves include "Isabella's Secret", "Possum Magic", "The Christmas Fairy", "There's a Hippopotamus on the roof eating cake"
* Hates cleaning up but Steve has introduced the "Clean up dance" (which includes a tushie wiggle at the end) so she is starting to clean up more
* loves doing ballet and dancing. She doesn't learn formally yet but will spend a large part of the twirling around and dancing. Steve and I watched "Save the Last Dance" yesterday and she stood mesmerised when the girl was dancing.
* likes playing with Denham and Isabella
* Idolises Emily and plays with her all the time. She gets frustrated with Emily telling her what to do but most of the time still plays along
* Can't wait until she goes to Prep next year and has been wearing Emily's Prep uniform a lot
* loves McDonald's nuggets, tacos, yogurt
* is a shocker for eating dinner - she will eat tacos, carbonara, meat and plain spiral pasta. Virtually have to force her to eat vegies.
* Has become really close to Steve (although she no longer calls him Billy like she did last year! LOL!) Calls him "my bestie"
* loves "schnuggles" with me every morning and "supers" from daddy (Supers are where she sits on Steve's chest and he lifts her with his arms under her bottom up into the air. All of the kids have loved supers, poor Steve! Sarah is the only one who can still have supers, but I don't think for much longer)
* loves her Dora stuff,
* has started riding her bike and is understanding what she needs to do to start off.
* still thinks she can do EVERYTHING that the big kids can!
* loves "Big Cook, Little Cook", Dora, anything on Foxtel...TV junkie!!!
* wants to do ballet and gymnastics
* loves most fruit especially strawberries, bananas and apples without "the crust"
* will look at some foods and tell me it's "misgusting" and "I hate that misgusting stuff"
* when I meal plan she asks for: tacos and spiral pasta (no sauce *sigh*) and will often eat the raw pasta (eww!)
* wears size 3-4 clothes and size 8-9 shoes.
Keep smiling, Trish :)

100 things....
I've been blog hopping this morning and since I am so bad at updating my blog unless I steal ideas off other blogs, I thought I'd steal this too LOL!
So what I am meant to do is answer the questions and pick the five top ones that you'd most like to do, so here goes:
1. Started my own blog – Yes, the poor neglected thing!!
2. Slept under the stars – Umm...kinda...does in a tent count?
3. Played in a band – Again...kinda - orchestra all through school and Recorder Group (Band) in primary school - yes you read right, a whole group playing recorders (although the thought now gives me shivers, the teacher must have been partially deaf!) but it gets worse - I was the leader of the recorder band and could play a variety of different types of recorder. I think from memory there was the piccolo, the alto, the soprano, the bass and double bass recorder. Yeah I was supercool in primary school!
4. Visited Hawaii – No :(
5. Watched a meteor shower - not that I can recall although I can vividly remember Halleys Comet.
6. Given more than I can afford to charity – Yeah but we're really hoping Matthew will reap the rewards one day.
7. Been to Disneyworld/land - No, we had planned to take the kids there when Matthew turned 10, although I think Sarah may not be old enough to fully appreciate it then so maybe when he's 12, Em will be 10 and Sarah 7!
8. Climbed a mountain – Girraween National Park - climbed a huge rock thingy called the Pyramids as a kid, we got most of the way up before Mum freaked at the combination of the height and the wind blowing and told Dad it was time to turn around! LOL!

14. Taught myself an art from scratch – The Art of Raising Children without going completely insane count?
15. Adopted a child – No, I think I'd like to foster kids one day though, so many kids that need a little bit of unconditional love and someone to believe in them.
16. Had food poisoning – Urgh...yes, from a friends 21st at Hogs Breathe Cafe....there were about 25 of us there and 18 got sick...2 seriously, 1 actually took them to court about it! I avoided Hogs Breathe for a loooonnnngggg time but now one of my fave places to eat!
17. Walked to the top of the Statue of Liberty – Nope!
