Miro and his shadow
Play on the sands of Watego Beach...
And later, he and Tomas
Trace race tracks in the shadows on the floor.

The boys while away the feral hours watching Ratatouille
While dinnertime chaos reigns behind.
24 May 2012
We start the day feeding the duckies at Joshy's place
And drive until Yamba, where we have pies and sausage rolls
And Miro learns to write Mummy's name in the sand...
23 May 2012
We set off bright and early from Sydney,
Breakfasting at Raymond Terrace
And then popping past Moredin's place for a yummy lunch
Along with biccies and ice-cream galore!
22 May 2012
Today we go visit Nanny and Pa-Din,
Watching 3D whales and Egyptians in the kitchen,
Swinging ever higher on the rope swing
And being chased around the veggies by a scary Grumps
Saying "I'm going to get you"!!
21 May 2012
Miro constantly asks to hold his little brothers
And we started giving him the opportunity to carry them every now and then.
Unfortunately he accidentally banged their head a few times though
And so now we just stick with supported cuddles on the lounge.
Both boys still love it!
19 May 2012
Miro starts his day writing Happy Birthday on Jack's birthday card,
Before passing a blissful afternoon with Ayden and Victoria,
Jumping around the garden in big purple tubes
And watching Despicable Me!
18 May 2012
After preschool
Miro thinks the cooking brush we give to the twins
Is the perfect game to go with half a postage box
And slide down the garden path.
17 May 2012
Today Mummy comes to Miro's preschool
To read a French book and eat baguettes and talk about the Tour Eiffel.
Miro is not all that excited about her coming
But is much more gee-d up by the RACES!
He's been having with all his friends.
He wants to have another one with Gooey when he gets home from school.
16 May 2012
Just hanging around
With Papa, Tai, "Burginny" and the twins
On a Wednesday afternoon wander
To new and unexplored play equipment.
15 May 2012
Miro, ever the opportunist,
Likes to race Matai to the finish line for dinner
And sometimes tries to sneak in a little dessert first!
14 May 2012
A lazy afternoon in the house,
Where Miro shows us the yoga poses he's learnt at preschool
And dresses up. It's the first time he's ever wanted to!
12 May 2012
Miro, wearing his brother's too-short sweater
Regales in reading about sharks at the Marrickvale cafe;
Plays with Gooey in the perspex rainbow of the doorway,
And follows the road rules riding his bike around the park.
11 May 2012
Miro makes mummy cry
When he presents her with a beautiful Mothers Day gift at preschool.
10 May 2012
After preschool, Miro always gets the munchies.
Here he pleads for Mummy to open some biccies
Using his most persuasive expression!
9 May 2012
Miro asks if we can have a picnic today
And happily, we can!
We go to Bronte Beach, where we have a nice lunch,
Then slip over to the rock pool for some paddling with Papa.
Miro makes his own impressive sandcastles!
8 May 2012
Crawling around in the kitchen with Gooey
Playing cars by slamming them into feet and furniture...
7 May 2012
Mummy's phone is populated
With photos that Miro sneakily shoots
Of everyone in the family, at impromptu times.
3 May 2012
Mummy comes to school for a parent day today
And plays Twister with the kids, and sings Miro's favourite Elephant Balancing song
But Miro is embarrassed, and doesn't want to join in.
"Mummy's aren't meant to come to school Mummy!" he says.
Later on in the afternoon we go to our favourite little park
And swing until the sun sets.
2 May 2012
Miro's first Typewriter.
"Don't tickle me Mummy," Miro says
"Because it makes me go to the toilet."
Sure enough, he's wee-d all over Mummy
And everyone needs to change pants!
1 May 2012
Now that TV has been reassigned
To the nightly Feral Hours
We use Tai's nap time to practice letters
Where Miro's "W"s all suddenly turn to "M"s.
30 April 2012
Miro is wonderful at the hairdressers
Trying hard to stay still while the tickly hair falls.
29 April 2012
Miro's favourite things to watch right now
Are Tom and Jelly, Donald Duck, and anything else cartoon-retro.
You usually don't notice he has taken the iPad,
But suddenly remark on how peaceful it is...
And then you hear his lovely giggles from the lounge...
28 April 2012
Having a great time
At Mia's birthday party...
Half-heartedly dressed as a pirate
But wholeheartedly participating in singing and dancing!
