a possum, possums

The Australian possum comes in two varieties: the possum and bushy-tailed possum ring-tailed, month I'm lucky, I have both in my garden - and under my roof. The other night (because possums are nocturnal) there are two (one large and one small) who have managed to enter the house, and I have managed to catch them armed with a broom and a laundry basket. The first came
was 1am and it was pretty funny, when the second point was the tip of her was 3am, it was already a lot less funny ...

But the worst is the next night, or I have not heard that Advent possum does not work on the answerphone and I heard a loud "No more message!". I raced after him, but nothing to do, it escapes me, this time he has had time to pee and poop everywhere and like the house was not really row (because the two previous night) it was a real disaster ... In short we spent the weekend at any store and clean up. The ourviers are coming on Saturday to try to plug the holes, but without much success. Tonight I set up a trap to catch the most reckless and to avoid greater damage.

Tonsils - Episode 1 The first film

This Friday, Elodie (6 years) and Violet (3 years) will be removed tonsils. They must be in the hospital at 6:30 am and fasting. It promises with Violet has an unfortunate tendency to eat 24/24. I'll spend the day and night with them. If all goes well, we went out Saturday, the worst on Sunday. Natasha has left the other 3 children with her parents to bring me reinforcement during the day.

Bain chamomile

A pediatrician friend recommended us to make a chamomile bath for skin problems binoculars. It works pretty darn well. it takes 5 or 6 bags of chamomile tea, water becomes a little yellow and babies love it. Adele's skin is much improved and his eczema is almost gone further.

5m Door Draft Excluders Sausage

A dishwasher

Last night there was a strong burning smell in the kitchen, I thought it was Natasha who had just burned something for dinner, but a little later the smoke started coming out of dishwasher and after a "puff" to blow the breaker. The dishwasher was dead.
This morning we started to call the seller and the manufacturer to invoke the warranty: a repairman come and see us, but not before May 1, then it will probably be room to order (five days of standby), then the time for another appointment, brief at least 30 days without dishwasher ...

But this afternoon, a letter arrives from Electrolux which is quite surprising they have not had time to send us a mail in half a day. A bit skeptical, thinking it was an advertisement for a new model, or other promotions, I open and am surprised to discover that it is a warning for our model of dishwasher, it takes stop using it immediately because there a risk of overheating, the son could melt a fire could start and spread outside the appliance!

So we recall the manufacturer, and a few hours later, we received a phone call telling us delivery tomorrow morning a new camera!
A little better than the 30 day initial waiting.

Huntsman


A Huntsman spider is very common in Australia, makes it a little too common for Natasha who hates spiders, and especially the huntsman. It is true that they look a bit like spiders comics with big hairy legs and are quite frightening until you learn that they are completely harmless to humans. They have the distinction of not weave cloth, to hunt their prey and live under the bark of trees.

I do not know why, but it seems that our car (although the French brand) Huntsman attracts the neighborhood to come to take refuge in our car ... And particularly under the sun visor passenger side (go figure).

Tonight again, there was one in the trunk of the car when I changed the flat tire (it is only the second time in three weeks). Of course Natasha was screaming for help so that I kill, I crush it, I knocks him out, as I sprayed toxic product, but really the idea of killing another of these creatures (I have killed at least 5 in the last month) I do not liked, so I took a small plastic box, I caught the huntsman who was in the trunk, and I was released into the bush at the corner Street.

Natasha is vaguely reassured, and I'm happy to have killed our stowaway.

Bath Pad No Suction Cups

layer

We started to sleep without Violet layer, because in five days in a row she has wet his bed once.
But now that Violet is satisfied it no longer needs diapers, no way to put him a diaper. There are still occasional accidents, but if I wear it to the bathroom to 22h generally it will make the night without a problem ... course by writing this post, I hear Violet turns, fast ... too late, the bed is already wet, a towel folded in half will allow him to sleep until tomorrow morning.

The Violet

Violet has a lot of will, as it has only two years, in English it's called the "terrible twos" in psychological terms it's called the opposition phase, and long Violette us go crazy to go to bed.

But finally, last night I got it to decide for even go to bed alone. Okay it happened at 9 o'clock in the evening 2 hours after the official curfew, but nevertheless, after asking for the nth time: "You want to go to sleep, or you want to sit on your chair? " she finally said, "go sleep", she got up and went to bed alone after carefully closing the door of his bedroom. I admit I was very impressed by his perseverance to sit in his chair (it was the market: in bed or chair), despite his obvious fatigue, but I was surprised at my own patience.
(now Violet collapsed sleep at 5:30, and she left for the night)

This probably came from my exchange with Matty, the former Montessori teacher Elodie which took place during the open days of the school. Exchange which was then extended to the house when Matty came for coffee. During his visit, the three "big" did a parade of costumes from the costume box, it was hilarious. Matty
me once again repeated the same precepts of education, and although I know quite well, a little refreshment from time to time do much good. Including stroke "no".

When a parent says "no" has a child, he expects an immediate response, the child will stop immediately and obey "without thinking".
But when a child says "no" to a parent, then it becomes an unacceptable answer, a correct behavior ... and yet it is well known that children do imitate their parents.
One solution is to offer children choices to give him a choice: "You want to eat your meat alone, or you want me to help?" Or "yes you can have ice when it will be hot "

Even today, whenever I'm surprised saying no, I quickly corrected by turning it into a choice:
Elodie: I do not want to go to bed immediately, I remained standing.
Dad: no, go to bed right now is the time when we had to decide that you would go to bed ... (Oops) if you want to stay up later, then you must store your office and pick up all cases that are on the ground.
Elodie: ok, I'll do that (instead of the usual wah-wah when I wear it to bed)


So I had a great weekend with the kids and everyone is relaxed.
[Update: thank you to Lawrence for her grammar lesson is that I do not often the opportunity to write in French, but it quickly returns]

Ski Doo For Sale In Ontario

New neighbors

Last Sunday we invite the new neighbor to tea.
Marvin & Mary were installed soon in Australia 5 years ago, arriving in Britain. In fact they just buy the house next to ours. Mary is 3 months pregnant and the baby was planned for the month of June is their first.

Marvin's mother is French and he speaks French without any accent. They are both very friendly and open. They intend to speak French to their child to be bilingual.

It's like our friends Steve and Rosie who adopted a Korean boy and Rosie that he speaks in French ... Having children seems to bilingual fashion and so we are very fashionable with 5 children bilingual (well those who speak ...)

Natasha started to talk up a playgroup in the French "community center" tip Street, as we begin to know lots of neighbor who would be interested in participating in such a playgroup ...
