In all seriousness, we are doing really well but we are also ready for some sunshine. Anyone who ever might consider moving to the Pacific Northwest really ought to consider the long, dark winter. However, on the flipside, there is the spring/summer season, which is AMAZING. As long as you keep busy, the winter doesn't have to be so terrible, here's a bit of what we've been up to and how we've been keeping dry ; ).
We spend a lot of time "camping" or playing in our tents (Thank you Uncle Richard, Aunt Brandy, Gabriel and Hudson) and tunnels snuggling, having tea parties, reading and rolling around.
We'll call this "Gorgeous and the Flying Fish."
Yes, this is a variety of cuddling.
Yeah...it's nice in here.
Hi!
They play this "peek-a-boo" game where they pop-up and down at each other, pump the side of the tent up and down and laugh, and laugh, and laugh. Too stinkin' cute!We also spend a lot of time engaged in art and/or quasi-science projects. Below, Gak Attack:
Beginning with the end: Mommy, I am so done!
Waiting for it...
...ooh! There it is, that's cool! We've even got Aine's attention!Here's how it worked.
Our materials.
Mix some food coloring in water. 
Add some cornstarch and eat it...
...er, squish it up.
Play.
Play.
...Wassup...?!?
Clean up.Also, window markers have proved to be at least as big a hit with Little Sister as they were/are with Big Sister.
Serious business.
I'm working hard.
I'm playing hard ; ).Also, in our art/science ventures, we decided to make our own finger paint one morning, just to change things up.
Easy, fun and different.Along with reading and building blocks, which you already know all about, we manage to keep pretty busy. We also have a fantastic library system, great friends, and the odd sunshine break in which we get to head outside and play -- but more on that later.
Hope wherever you are you are starting to enjoy the wonders of spring. We'll be joining you soon -- stay tuned!
Love!
