Millie at the 'li-bery'

All Millie wants to do when she finishes school for the day is go to the library. She could spend hours here playing puzzles, building towers, looking at the animals, displays, magazines, choosing dvds and reading books of course!

Good old Mesfin

Who knew? That we would turn up at a randomly picked hotel in downtown DC to be greeted by Mesfin from Ethiopia, fluent in Hebrew.
After much shmoozing and talking about what we love about Israel, Mesfin gave us five complimentary cards for breakfast, bless him.
As Paul Zimm says "wherever you go, there's always someone Jewish"....

Our magnolia wall

I love this little corner of our room. The magnolia photos were taken a couple of years ago in grandma dianne's back garden, before they cut down the magnolia tree.
I love the little white shelf too with our leatherette funky initials, a really loving photo of James + I, and all kinds of little creations the kids have made + gradually snuck on there too!

Little Miss Independent peeling a carrot

I don't know how it happened, but in about 4 months from now, Millie will be 4 PG.
She is just so old + sensible it takes my breath away, literally. Take this evening at dinner.
The kids were all sitting around eating their chocolate fromage frais while I was having a boring 70 cal yoghurt. Millie came over to me to see what I was eating and I must have said something ridiculous like "mummy is eating a plain, boring, healthy yoghurt" in a poor attempt to avoid having to share.
Millie sized me up and then asked me "why do u eat a healthy yoghurt but you let your children eat unhealthy?"!!!t

Wild deer

Ok, how insane is this? Wild deer, chomping away at the plants in someone's front garden just round the corner from us...

Mobile blogging is back!!!!

I have not been able to mobile blog for the last couple of weeks which has been really annoying. At last, after a total of 4 hours on the phone to AT+T, we are back in business.
It has been suggested that it is far more interesting to hear stories of BAD things the kids have said + done, rather than just all the good stuff.
Point taken.
Will just have to wait for some bad behavior....shouldn't be long :)
Meanwhile, here's a photo of Yoav at Picklelicious having a pickle on a stick....
