Dinner at 4:20pm

tired hungry kids... cheese on toast... omelette x 2... half an avocado... leftover baked beans from last night... over an hour of eating!

Mellifluous

I found this in a design spec for some software I'm documenting:

In case of misuse, this can lead into appearance of dysfunction

It really is sweeter than honey, isn't it. Being led into any appearance is a concern, but then you find out that it's the Appearance of Dysfunction!

Hazel's first writing

Hazel wrote this for her friend Rowan, who has been sick. She went into another room, made this card, then came back to show me.

It says:

DEAR ROWN AD GRETA
I AM SORE (sorry) ROWN ES VOMATENG

 

Installing DELL software

And this is the picture it shows me.

Artistic representation

What do you think this is? Hazel drew it.

Hint: If you are thinking that it is a body part that is not usually out in the open, you might be right.

Ivy and a baby Komodo dragon

At Taronga Zoo yesterday, we walked for hours and went on the Sky Safari for three and a half trips. Tony took a day off work to come with us, and he cope well with the girls making decisions about what to see. Hazel wanted crocodiles and alligators, and we saw them all, floating like logs and shifting occasionally.
Ivy wanted the hippo, which we didn't get to. Instead, she loved the reptile house. We played Spot the Camouflaged Animal.
Both girls were keen on the chimpanzees and gorillas. Both of these groups had little ones being carried and watched over by their mum.

We are classy

This is how we have breakfast by the beach at Manly.
