February 15-16

And so we come to the end of our week… and of Sean’s visit. Ken and Sean had an evening of shopping and a movie to round off Sean’s visit. That left myself and the kids home to do schoolwork… the special Friday dinosaur time? Watching episodes of Poet Plays with Dinosaurs on youTube. I have posted the link to the first episode HERE.

Sean!!

To go into Emanuel’s binder the boys all banded together and drew some pictures of what they saw there. Apparently this is now the mod to have for our family and there have been MULTIPLE requests that I get Daddy to add it to their Minecraft.

Working together

We finished some Valentine’s Day themed colour by numbers.

Completions

I did a take 2 on the hairstyle and then in the evening ran out to Target with Ken to get some hair mousse to help contain the hair a bit… oh and some black elastics instead of the coloured ones I have been using.

Take 2

We said good bye to Sean on Saturday. The kids were all rather put out that he was going home and that I was cracking down on the rules even more. It is funny how with Nana and Baba gone on vacation the behaviour they mostly held in check for their benefit has EXPLODED! I foresee A LOT of time outs and technology withdrawal in their future. And then we said hello again when his flights got cancelled due to weather in Toronto! Next flight out – Sunday morning… 7:00 am, through Toronto AGAIN!

Bibi hunting

Take THREE of the milk maid braids was even better than the previous 2. I bought some mousse for curl control with the hope it will control my wave a little and help hold the braid shape. So far so good! Next I attempt the gel eyeliner…

Getting better each time

I have decided that once a week we will have a technology free day for the kids… we have so many random toys and educational items that they just do not touch. This afternoon I turned off the cartoons and had them dig through drawers and cupboards after a particularly annoying bought of whining over show choices. I want my grateful children back… lately we have had whiners and a lot of fighting. Oh well, phases.

I love this kind of active clutter

So we had a rather eventful uneventful start to our weekend!

Ok so I had to share this – POCOYO on TV here in the USA !!! YAY
