Rosie............

I have forgotten to update on Rosie!!! She is doing great....until the weekend she has to be separated from Amber as they play too roughly together.......this means they have to go outside separately...which means they can't go out for as long because its cold and when they are alone they don't run and play.....so aside from walks with us they aren't outside for long.....today the fog lifted at 1:30pm but was back by 3pm!!!! thick icy fog.....we couldn't see the end of our driveway.

So Rosie has rested a lot and looks funny without her long furry underbelly which has all been shaved off.....she seems quite happy in herself though which is good....she is quiet for Rosie though...she is normally the playful one! I guess her painkillers are making her sleepy a little.....Amber misses her I know!

Almond roca squares...................


I forgot to say that Susie and Chris worked together this afternoon to make some Almond Roca squares..................hey are yummy........(I won't mention that they had to make the caramel topping twice because they let the butter and sugar burn and my house smelt like burnt toffee for an hour!!) They were well worth the yucky smell!

Tuesday evening................

So we had chicken taco's with a broccoli salad for supper...the girls are now at dance....although Lloyd has gone to pick them up so they will be home soon.....no doubt they will show me what they have learnt today..............I have been curled up on my big chair reading books with Sam...one about a bear on a bike......one about things to do in the snow, and one called the Shimmery Glimmery bedtime book......

Which reminds me...how do you spell pyjamas? I have always spelled it pYjamas...but since living here everyone spells it pAjamas.....and it started making me think I was spelling it wrong...but the book we have (a British book) spells it pYjamas........so that must be the British way of spelling it................but then I thought Canadian spellings were the same as British as in colour/ favourite............

But I guess not because the Canadians I know spell it the US way pAjamas..........

So yes I have been reading with Sam, I did a couple of loads of laundry (fun fun fun) and am waiting for Lloyd to get back.....oh I sat on my bed and ate a ton of Halloween candy too.....

Lets forget all about that!! A VERY wise person last week said that the miniature candies are calorie free anyway ;)

I plan to finish off Mitch Alboms book this evening...........

winners and losers............




Susannah won the game, Laurie lost but possibly because he spent much of the game building a house of cards ;)

Debbies math game..........






Today we finally got to play the math game that Debbie mentioned on her blog http://a-step-at-a-time.blogspot.com/

Its a good game and Laurie and Susie enjoyed it......next time Abigail can play too but today she was working through her kindergarten CD rom......

Sam sat beside us at the table while we played..and he playedwith the MUS blocks.....

We weren't as organized as Debbie of course so we used a variety of objects for the units/ tens and hundreds :)

An apple (or two) a day.........





Charlie getting her nutrients the fun way..............by chasing an apple around the house!!

playing with the straws..........



Sam and Charlie playing with the building straws............

Give me a piggin' kiss...............

My Mom is sick with the stomach flu......back home in England...my Dad is just making her an oxo drink......so she must be getting better now.......she hates being sick....so I hope the sickness part is now gone!
