meadowlark

The daffodils are out and the blossoms are just starting to show. Yesterday, after the rain, we took the boys to Meadowlark for a run around.

Cameron is trying to ride his bike without training wheels and look - he did it!

Cameron and Jamie have already been busy at school this week.

Cameron is doing the letter X so this is his x-ray picture.  Tomorrow he's taking in a pirate treasure map with "x" marks the spot - it was a great suggestion from Christina...always good to have other mum's to help out!Jamie is doing the letter N and O. Here is his Noah's ark and rainbow. He was so happy with the rainbow and that he knew about Noah.

Meet Daisy

Traveling can be a very lonely experience and you can be forced to go to some extraordinary lengths for a little companionship. Meet Daisy. She is a grandmother and a little taller than me but wow, what a kisser!

Grant on safari

Grant went on a walking safari this weekend. Here are some photos that he took with his iPhone and he sent to the boys.

This one is for Grant....

Followed by Jamie's Jack-In-The-Box....
And then a lovely portrait of me by Jamie....
Cameron made a watch with velcro so he could wear it...the face is the size of a dessert plate but that's cool for the kids.....

dreams

We normally speak about dreams in the morning. Cameron and Jamie have some good dream stories to share when they get up.  Cameron strongly remembers one about a train running over his granny!  Perhaps that was a nightmare?  Jamie often talks about his shark dream.

But this morning's discussion with Jamie was different. Here is our conversation from this morning.

Me: Did you have any dreams last night Jamie?

Jamie: No. I've run out of dreams.

Me: Jamie, you don't run out of dreams. Don't worry, you don't have to have them every night. You'll have more dreams again.

Jamie: Maybe Santa could bring me some?

Me: Santa brings presents at Christmas but he doesn't bring dreams. 

Jamie: Ohhhhh....

Me: Maybe the Sandman could bring you some dreams?

Jamie: WOW...the Sandman!

I wonder what will happen tomorrow morning?! What have I started?

batman!

oh yeah...the whole house went crazy...the boys went wild...their new crocs from Granny have arrived....and they had to wear them this afternoon and show everyone they met -- happy, happy, happy!

HAPPY FEET!

i'm not sleepy

Jamie says he doesn't need to nap anymore. So when this happens at 5pm I have to disagree with him.
