Vic Park playground. I do love this Fair Trade swing dress from Playing Fair

Park in Smythesdale, sitting up on the picnic table on a decent midwinter day.

Jasmine in June

It's yummy-disgusting!

J: Do aliens fly?
B: Aliens don't catch flies. Lizards catch flies.

Apologies: I'm very behind in updating the blogs. Unfortunately all my recent pictures just got wiped with the death of the laptop. If you have any photos from this month, please send them, and I'll edit the posts as able.

Decided to put her pillow down the other end of the bed. She's mostly left it like that since, but moves it in the night sometimes. One night she woke up crying. She had her head on the pillow but was laying across the bed, crying "Where's my head?"

Me: Is your drink yummy?
J: No - it's got a fish in it. Look... he's so cute!!

Jasmine: calling Byron "Elvis"... because she is Fireman Sam.

J (looking at a pic of Zach wearing a green square beanie): That's not Zachy. That's Shrek!

Me: Whoever is sitting at the table can have some strawberries.
J: Byron, can you get down from the table so I can have LOTS of strawberries?

Likes to sleep with her head under her pillow.

Me (to Jasmine, who's about to put her boots on backwards): Other way.
J - turns 360 degrees and glares at her boots

Jasmine in March.

J: He's are!
Me, correcting the grammar: Not "He's are"
J: He's am!

"I don't want to!" "I don't care!" (overused those)

J: Mummy! The block licked me!
B: Jasmine, none of my blocks have tongues...

Discovered "Hairspray" (the movie). As soon as she's out of bed:
"Mummy, can I have my dress on?" Dress goes on. "Can I watch Tracy?"

Me: Is your nose blocked? Say "mmmm"
J: I don't want to say Mmmm

Jasmine in Feb:

She started calling me "mama" for some reason.

Learned to "skateboard" on a slippery board (or book) on the kitchen floor)

Jasmine (to Byron): Don't smack me! I'm a girl!

J: A guitar! It has a long trunk.

J: (Brings me a knitting bag) There you go, Mummy. When we get to the playground, you have to knit.
