Bits and pieces

As October draws to a close...lots going on. Dylan and Maya have been tussling a bit this week. She is asserting herself more. He took a water bottle away from her (which we often do because she likes to pour the remainder of the water all over the floor when she has had her fill) She was not done with it and cried. He shouted at her while pointing...so she promptly bit his finger!!!! Of course everybody was in tears after that!!! I relate the story as it was told to me as this all happened on Ciro's watch while i was at work so he had a hectic evening!

Pics are from the past week.
Maya playing my cafe world game and so happy about it:)) (Yes i am hooked on that game)

We made maracas the other day. Rice everywhere..Maya tried to eat it:)





Sunday morning the weather was wonderful. Fall really is our favourite season here. Took the kids for a ride...Maya decided she would walk ...which meant one of us had to push her bike...

If Dylan gets up then so must Maya:)

A rare family pic.

These three girls knelt down and spent about five minutes just staring at the kids...not saying a word:)

There is nothing like kicking dry leaves....they were all neatly swept to the side....but oh well!!!









Ciro rigged his belt to the bike to help tired boy move along...

Teacher Ida sent home some seeds and planting pots. They did this at school and Dylan loved it so much so she had extra for him and Maya...he loved planting...and they are just starting to sprout.



Every time we leave the house..Our two little ones run tot he end of the corridor and race back to the elevator..i am sure our neighbours love us!! Of course it is usually Dylan who gets there first especially as he makes sure she starts from the wall ....here he is and you can see her in the back and ...

there she comes....

Went to the Jazz festival on Sunday afternoon. Maya felt the best place was right next to the stage:) We sat down for a bit in the center and Dylan was dancing away in the middle of a group ...unfortunately i didn't get a pic of that because i had a wiggly worm of a Maya who wanted to run away...but it was super cute..

In the park Maya befriended this lady...and again i was having a bad picture day...as i put the camera away to go and grab her..lady stood up and started dancing on the spot...Maya followed every move she did. For those who are in Taiwan and see the old ladies having dance class..it was like that ...so funny!



really into the Dylan's latest favourite game...Backyardigans on Nick Jr. Of course Maya likes to get her 5c in! Sh is actuallyTeletubbies at the moment. So often it is what keeps the peace she gets to watch a bit of "Lala" as she calls it while he plays.
