Babysitting Ellie
19 Feb 2012A Week In February
12 Feb 2012I often wonder where the early months of the year go. Ours are low-profile, and mixed with an odd assortment of things. No big parties or trips. Here is last week, roughly: an assortment. (click on any to enlarge)
The Niners missed the Superbowl by one game. We distracted ourselves with Kiera’s chicken wings (the only wings I’ve ever loved) and Mark’s Superbowl Squares, which kinda sucks these days ’cause I don’t know enough of the players/winners.
Lucy loves Peeky-Boo, and Karen.
A rare Play-doh moment (I don’t like the way it smells, so I hardly ever bring it out)
Room 103 does Art for the Auction. I read this book to Oscar (over multiple nights) and had warm fuzzy flashbacks.
Opi says, “Kids, sugar is bad for you”…
…Then serves up the ice cream.
The neighbor’s shower curtain art that is driving me crazy, and Lucy sleeping, which I always love.
We make brownies, and decorate Kiera’s cookies for UJ.
Lucy’s first soccer practice, followed by playground time, with her friend Taj.
We babysit Eloise for the first time, so Lachie can take Izzie out for her birthday.
XOXO!
The Wild Parrots Are Back
17 Jan 2012Every time I get mad that the neighbor is feeding the birds, I soften up a bit when I see the parrots visiting. It’s been 20 degrees at night.
The usual little birdies were irritated, and waited impatiently nearby:
The pair look out for each other while they eat.
This is the tree they hang out in (it’s dying, but they don’t mind). Check out the dude – he’s communicating with me, but I don’t know what he’s saying.
