The Kids

These are photos from this morning and a few from around Valentine's Day. Alf used the IKEA chest of drawers box this morning to make a rocket. He did a fab job, coming up with the idea of attaching the pegs and then doing them all by himself. I can certainly remember a time when he couldn't use a peg and would ask me to do them for him all the time so that's a cool development and as I explained to him, will help with his writing when he's in big school...all that fine motor control.
He makes a ridiculous amount of noise around Josephine and heaven help her, she usually rewards him with a goofy grin, so he persists. We really need her to learn to ignore him so we can calm him down a bit sometimes, but I don't see that happening any time soon. She adores him.
Alf is with his Dad in Standlake visiting his cousins and grandparents for the day. Josephine is asleep in her car seat in the hallway and I have just woken up from a nap on the couch, in my coat! It suddenly got cold again today here.
