Fun at Home

The girls received the junior version of the game Apples to Apples, and we've all had a great time playing it together.

Violet is reading better and better every day, and she's just about able to play on her own without help. Violet is hilarious playing just about any game - she laughs easily, cracks jokes, speaks with a funny inflection in her voice.

Nanny has been teaching Cora how to knit. They went out and bought knitting needles and a pretty skein of yarn. Cora has many ideas of knitting projects she would like to complete, and it's nice seeing her work hard on a project (that isn't a game on her new kindle!).
















While Cora stayed up a bit later knitting, Pop read to Violet so she could get to bed on Cora's trundle. They're sharing Cora's room, while Stace and I are sleeping in Violet's room so Sue and Gord can have the master bedroom.

The girls love playing with Pop; Cora likes to call him "Bob," or "Gordon Bob," since his middle name is Robert. (Cora is oddly fascinated with the word "Bob.")

Gord had fun taking Stace's MG out around the neighborhood.
