The McKenzie’s Blog…

On June 26 Lisa’s pre-school, Ladybird Pre-School, had a day out at Wicken Fen.  This is a National Trust owned Nature Reserve near Cambridge.

The weather couldn’t have been better for the day.. it was a little overcast, but that kept the heat down which was good.

Today was the first of two visits that Lisa will make to the Cottenham Primary School.  The kids from Pre-Schools around the area went today for their first of two orientation days at the “big” school.  They get to meet their teachers, see their new classrooms and meet the other kids that will join them.

We were given a form to fill out where they asked us to list 3-5 other kids that Lisa would like to have in her class with her.  Lisa was lucky and all of her friends were put in the same class.

I’ve decided to start to use Flickr for my photos and videos.  I will keep the current gallery in place with the pics and videos we have now, but from now on I’ll be putting all new items into Flickr.

You can easily get to our Flickr page by going to:

Here’s a new video of Emma, and more can be found in The Kids Collection on Flickr.

I also shoved all the pics from Mull up on Flickr as well, they are here

Isle of Mull - 2008 album.

We measured the kids today .. Lisa is now 108cm and she weighs 19kg. Emma is 86cm and weighs 12kg. 

The girls are both off school now until April 7 for the Easter/half term break.  The school is putting on an Easter Egg hunt party on April 26 and the girls will be going to that with their school mates and Yuki.  It should be good fun for them, hopefully Yuki will get some pics and we’ll post them to the blog.

We’ve started with Lisa going to bed with no diapers for the last 3 or 4 nights, well today was her first dry morning!!

GO Lisa GO (but not in bed)

We did get her up a couple of times to go potty, but lets hope the drought continues!

I’ve put together a page with info about Lisa’s first laptop and the software I’ve installed on it and what not.

Lisa’s First Laptop Page

Check it out .. I’ll update the page from time to time if things change on it.

The girls had a bubble bath tonight .. it seems daddy put way way way too much bubble mix in the tub.
