Once again we have been up since the sparrows fart! But! We have just been to an amazing Chinese circus.... Once the little girls were accustomed to the lights and loud music they loved it. The clowns didnt eat us ( this was Armelies concern after I told her they might have funny red noses and long shoes, She said mmmm ok mummy but will it eat little girls) Lucia clapped wildly and exclaimed loudly in her baby babble.
Lucia and Armelie have been practising their singing....mixed with penny whistle, harmonica, pot lids, mini grand piano and Lucias classic squeal loop sample they are taking music to a new frontier.....we couldnt say its melodic or harmonic....a little more like a cat has been put in a sack with a mouse and a whole lot of pot lids. We look forward to their future shows!

Of Bum Shuffling and other antics
All is well in the Vincent Chick house hold.... Lucia is truly toddling now, dancing singing and trying to spin around. Its hard, it seems, to stay upright when your gumboots are 2 sizes to big and you've decided to become a spinning acrobatic dancer, whilst still only on week two of mastering the art of two legged getting about. Its sometimes tempting to revert back to the( once superior) discipline of bum-shuffling. However it is a lost and forever banished form of getting about due to the vast number of trou with holes and pretty tights with no bottom at all! Although we have heard that there is an insurgence starting at Armelies Kindergarten( led by Princess Armelie herself! please see photo of her royal highness, and dont be fooled by her classic good looks! she is a revolutionary to be sure) If these shinanigans are not quelled soon the result may well be, disgruntled parents and holey trousers!
Mr Chick has banished himself to the sleepout partly to finish it and partly to get some sleep. But all round the nights have not been to bad , or maybe I cant remember what a good night is?? But we are keeping the light firmly insight, (for Armelie this seems to mean the bit before the bit before the bit before the bit where you kind of think it may be about two hours before sunrise ie: 5am ish) well maybe I'm just optimistic. Hmmm and Lenny thinks he's a realist... well now that we have lost track a bit and well ok!
Tui is playing netball and I'm super impressed with her improvement. Shes quite a little sport girl and loves every minute of it.
love love love to you all xx
