Another present was inline skates (excuse Ethan's bottom part, he wants to sleep comfortably) Krystina still looking sleepy, too early for her to get up for Ethan was too excited and woke her up.  And the children's gift for mummy was Pandora bracelet with 3 charm beads, a house (for new house next year) a pig and another chosen by Krystina she just picked.

Girls day out
| While Ethan was not home for 2 nights, Krystina and her Mum went to Brisbane's Queens St Mall planning to do some christmas shopping and just to spend the day together in the city. We took the bus, because taking the car to the city is expensive and finding a car park is like looking for trouble. We got off at the bus terminal and followed the passengers as we didn't know where is the exit (the bus stopped somewhere underground the building bus terminal). We looked around the shopping windows and searched for bargains. Krystina enjoyed smelling the perfumes and collecting sample sprays inside the Myers perfumes booths. Next, we tried the shoes, but all the ones with nice designs were too big for Krystina. On the 4th floor, near the the kids sections, a free train ride to Santa's village was offering a visit to Santa and photographs, etc. She joined the queue and a few minutes of waiting she's on her train ride sessions. The train goes for 3 rounds each session. Then it was lunch time, so we some lunch and went outside the shops and found there was a circus that was about to start in 10 minutes. Krystina found a good spot, and settled herself. At about 2.30, she wanted to go the library and registered for the summer reading club. She also played in the 'Corner' with other children and wrote a letter to santa and drop it in the free letter box to Santa. At around 5pm, Dad called that he's picking us up and we'll all going home.  Circus performers   Lady acrobat in the trapeze  Another balancing act  The only child performer in the group  Inside the Myer's, photo with the gold reindeer  And a free train ride around Santa's village.  And of course with the christmas tree. Labels: circus, entertainment, queens st mall, shopping |

Ideas for christmas presents
| Two more weeks and it's christmas! I have been thinking what to get for the children and for the whole family. Going to the malls, you'll see heaps of ideas what to buy and compare prices. And since playing computer/video games is a popular past time in the house, I searched for an Xbox 360 at http://www.shopwiki.com for more information about the product and best price. Our old model of Xbox is still working but it's outdated and the new Xbox 360 console is so sleek and I'm sure the whole family will love this for christmas. Labels: game console |

Christmas Tree
  Krystina and Ethan setting up the christmas tree. Last year we put the tree up as early as November but this year we can't decide whether to put the tree up or not because we are not sure if we will have christmas at home or at the house But anyway, we still want to feel the spirit of christmas so the kids carry the tree and put on their hand made christmas decors.  Ethan fixing the lights  Deciding where to put the decorations   And wearing their christmas shirts for Ethan's childcare centre party in the afternoon. Labels: christmas tree, decorations, gifts |
