219 + 115

The weeks seem to be flying by these days, I guess because we are so busy.  Uncle Sting came down for a visit this weekend, so we spent Saturday at the farm.  Arley adores his Uncle, he was very taken by him.  (I failed to take any photos though, sorry Sting).  The kids are adapting to their home, and are spending a good deal of time out in the back yard.  I had a brilliant idea (if I don't say so myself) of attaching swings to our giant hills hoist clothes line, and now we can swing the kids round in circles, and they LOVE it.  In fact, Carmie threw a full blown tantrum tonight when she couldn't go outside to go on her swing.  She was in quite a mood today, not her usual cheery self.  She is getting very into her writing, and I am finding little notes around the house, saying, "cat" or "bat" or "hat" - she has the 'at' words down!  Arley is his same self, one minute giggling and happy, and the next, the grumpy little boy refusing to eat dinner.  No one ever said these kids weren't full of personality.

Our builder has started work on my studio in the back yard.  I am so excited for it to be finished, and not just so that we don't have workmen and tradesmen around the house any more.  I can't wait to get in there!!  It is my birthday next week, and Jeffrey and I are spending two nights away in Kiama (not far, but far enough!).  I am hoping that when we get back, my studio will be almost done.

Really cute video of the kids on our clothesline swing:
