brrrr....it's been cold....

Well we have had a few cold days and some rain and storms...Our pergola blew down and just missed going through the bedroom window...and the pirate ship sustained some damage...lol...Ben didn't go to Copenhagen so it looks like he may actually be home for the whole 5 weeks...yay!

A nice day again today so we spent a lot of it outside...Evangeline has been doing lots of maths lately...she is learning multiplication, subtraction and addition at school....all with concrete manipulatives...And she is so pleased with herself as she can spell pig all by herself...she can write a few names but this is the first unrelated word she has worked out! And she did this the other day to her bed...lol...maybe she had the Princess and the Pea in mind...And a bit of sibling bonding watching Tinkerbell...well M only sits there a few minutes but E loves it...And we have done some Friday night cooking....And look at these gorgeous brown eyes...And that is about it around here as we are all recovering from colds....I hope you have had a good weekend - Lissy
