Skolan för Oliver

 Mitt i terminen är det. Fredrik har sina trials, dvs förberedelser inför studentproven.

Oliver har haft öppet hus i skolan och jag var där och hälsade på. Förutom att visa runt i klassrummet hade alla barnen dansuppvisning. Kindergarten klasserna hade tränat hela förra terminen en gång i veckan och tyckte det var jättekul att dansa inför föräldrar och grandparents.

Här är lite bilder från klassrummet.

Sen bestämde sig Oliver för att han ville ha "tiny hair" så Niclas klippte honom med maskinen.
Han trivs jättebra med sitt nya hår och är hur busig som helst nu.













Jessica har flyttat hemifrån. Hon flyttade in med en kompis i en lägenhet i Coggee, som ligger mycket närmare skolan. Bara 10 minuters promenad från stranden. Hon har fullt upp med pluggandet, jobb och kårspex som går av stapeln nästa vecka. Vi ser med spänning fram emot att komma och titta.

Autumn 2011

We have now entered winter, the nights are colder and the wind a little chilly, but overall pretty nice - except for indoors, where we get a little cold - though the gasheater is great.

Oliver is busy at school and learning more and more words. He also loves watching the Incredibles on film and it has made a great impact on him. Just before watching this movie, he made his own Superhero costume, his friend had a bought one and I did not want to buy one. His superhero is FQ.
Now it is all about Superheros - well the comment is "when I am a Superhero when I grow up.."

Fredrik is working hard at school and looking forward to the school holidays, starting on the 1st of July.

Jessica is on study leave at the moment, followed by two weeks of exams from next week and then a month off. She just completed her masquerade ball dress for the ball on the 2 June, she made it all. I am very impressed. There is alot of sewing going on.

We also went up to the Sydney Tower one day, not having been there yet - we had a lovely day with the boys.

We are around!

Hi All,

Yes we are around, its just that life gets a little busy sometimes.

Just moved into a new house - which is just 5 k south of where we have been for the past years.
Niclas saves aprox 1 hour per day in travel into the city and the main buses and the mall are all within walking distance.

Life is great!
Jessica is working at KikkiK in the mall and enjoying working before going to University next March.
Fredrik has just started on his final year at school and is working hard.
Oliver starts school in February and is very excited - he cannot wait to start big school and to turn 5.

Niclas is working in the city and I am working in Mosman and from home.
There are lots of things happening and we hope to be able to enjoy summer now it has arrived.

Photos of the new house will be posted any day soon.

Our "Food Guy" or the little Swedish Chef

Oliver decided to build himself a "kitchen" in the living room the other day.
He put two footstools on their side, arranged with pillows and blankets behind, added a few legoboxes on the
side (for an oven) and then collected lots of pots and stuff.

We then found his chefs hat and gear and he started "cooking" for us.

It is amazing how much fantasy these little people have - so much fun to be had :)


Then later that day he helped make an apple pie for dessert :)
