Sonja turns 2!

 

Rosie likes to style her hair with a little hummus.

 

Mary did all the letters herself except the "S".

 

All the girls at Sonja's birthday party.

 

The birthday girl!

 

Sister snuggles.

 

All the girls!

 

Sitting with Amma.

 

Sonja had to make an important call to Bjossi, who was sitting across the table.

 

Mary and Sonja swapped hats so they were both Winnie the Pooh policewomen.

 

I experimented with giving Rosie a bowl. There was lots of playing and not much eating. 

 

Rosie claps (and signs "more")!

 

Mary liked teaching Rosie how to clap.

A few pictures

 

"Mama, I beaded a boy." It took me a few seconds to figure out what Mary was saying.

 

Once again Mama is the only one smiling. 

A sister bath!

 

"This is my seat belt, Mama."

 

Here comes Rosie! If you don't have a free hand, why not use your mouth?

Bus adventure

 

Mary riding the bus to the maritime museum with her class.

  

Waiting to board the ship.

 

Captain Mary.  

 

Fun with a fisherman's costume.

 

Hauling in a catch.

 

 Riding back to school.

 

 

Busy, busy girls.

 

Getting ready to play in the rain.

 

Heading out for a walk.

Mini golf

The weather wasn't great today, but we persevered and still had fun.

 

Rosie got to stay warm inside the rain cover.

 

 

Mary needed a few lessons on how to hold the putter.

 

She managed to get the ball in the hole, one way or another.

 

Rosie must have been bored because she brought out her book.

 

We ended with a visit to the pirate ship.

 

Windy.

 

Sonja did well on Mary's scooter.

School fun

 

Admiring her drawing.

  

It was warm enough to use the sprinkler! (Mary is on the left).

 

Performing for their school friends (Mary is in the blue pants).

 

Quite an audience.
