Well, it has been a tough week but with a great ending. Arley has been sick as a dog with a horrible cold (again!), and this makes him a MONSTER!! I would try to put on his shoes, and he would scream and kick and cry, and then when I say, "Fine, no shoes then" and walk away, he sobs "Shoes, shoes," because he wants his shoes on. Whatever we want, he doesn't, and whatever we don't want, he does. He is the grizzliest beast when he is sick. Until today. He cried and cried when I dropped them off at school (he has been quite happy to see me go until today), but then this evening, he was a total sweetheart. Not a scream or a cry out of him. Hopefully it's here to stay!
Carmie is still an angel. She has her moments, but for the most part, she is a doll. She takes care of Arley at school, and we can actually see her making conscious decisions to be good instead of naughty. She has lots to say about the 'binomial cube' and the difference between vertebrae and invertebrate, and she is learning to spell. This weekend she went on a trip with her grandparents to Bowral, to go to a party with her extended cousins. She was so excited to go, and didn't skip a beat leaving us even though she had been at school for the past four days. It was harder on us than on her!
The other great news is that today we settled on our new house! We are finally officially home-owners, and we couldn't be more excited :) Now for the house to be painted and the kitchen redone, and then we move in at the end of August. So happy :) :)
We have pretty poor photos this week though. We only got out once, because Arley was sick, and the weather has been really cold.
