Ski-Girl
I've already talked about ski-ing on my main blog, but I thought it would be nice to post here about it too! Antonia had her first lesson ever and all in Italian. The ski Instructor was unsure at first, with my Italian being so crap but when she returned Antonia, she said it wasn't a problem and she had understood everything.
Alex had a lesson too, this is just before they set off on their lessons.
The downside was that Antonia came home with a dose of 'flu. I say 'flu rather than a cold as she had a really high temperature and just wanted to sleep all the time. She also had a headache on two nights. She was really cold on Sunday before we came home. I was really worried at one point and put her in the car to warm her up. Considering getting cold isn't supposed to give you a cold or 'flu the coincidence seems a bit strange. She still isn't right now and goes to bed at least an hour or so earlier than normal. Next time I will be really layering her up.

Carnevale
We missed the nativity due to sickness, but I think Carnevale turned out to be much more fun!
By the way, that really is a Nun with a witches mask on her head!!

Nativity Time
On Saturday Antonia is going to be an Angel in her school Nativity Play. The school provided the costume and I provided the dance shoes ( a specific type and colour!), white tights and a bit of tinsel for her halo.
I haven't taken any photos yet but when I have I will post them on here.
It is going to be quite a production. The school hires a theatre some distance from the school to put the Nativity on. It means a trip in a taxi for us or 2 buses!! I think the school are also laying on a bus though so we may take that yet, but if we still have to get to school first a taxi will be easier.
With a start of 10 a.m. the other challenge we have is getting Alexander out of bed in time! He will have arrived home with his Dad the previous night on the last flight into Florence, which arrives around 11.30 p.m. if we are lucky. Ah, well, we all have to make sacrifices! I have promised him a lie-in on the Monday. His Dad is only here until Sunday morning so he has to get up to see his Dad!
Antonia finally managed a full week in school last week! Unfortunately we couldn't keep it up this week and she had a stomache upset Monday and Tuesday so I couldn't send her in. She has to go in the rest of the week though if she still wants to be an Angel!!
