222 + 118 Weeks

We had our Labour Day long weekend this week, and it came with the most amazing weather.  It was summer in springtime, a total heat wave.  We took the kids to the inlet at Dolphin Point on Saturday, and on Monday too, and we had a blast.  The kids were well behaved, no one was sick, the sun was shining, and it made for a great weekend.  It is amazing how great weather changes everything.  We live in such a beautiful place, it is just no fun to be locked indoors, and now we really can't wait for summer.

Arley is talking a lot now, although some of it is still unintelligible.  Sometimes I simply cannot understand what he is saying, and this causes him a lot of frustration.  He has started learning his pronouns, and has been asking questions with, "Can I...?" and he takes great care in emphasising when he says 'you' and 'I' and 'my'.  He doesn't like to be around his dad much lately though, and when Jeff goes near him, he screams, "No Daddy, no!"  Thankfully Jeffrey finds it amusing, but we will see how long that lasts.

Carmie is doing really well.  They told me again at her school today that she is very advanced.  What can I say, she takes after her mother ;)    Tonight she called me Babe, as in "Yeah, Babe!"  She is a goose.  She loves to draw, and she is getting very good at writing sentences.  She is also full of energy, and runs around the house like a mad hatter.  And she looks after Arley, which is really nice :)

My studio is about a week away from being finished.  I can't wait!!!









Lolo and Dida came over for a visit, which is good, as the kids miss them SO much when they don't see them.
