Cold Week

 What would mid January be without a week of coughing and Kleenex and Children's Advil?  It would be awesome but alas germs love kids and so it goes.  Cara had a cold and cough so she stayed home from school on Thursday this week.  Illness always happens when it is nice outside so we are stuck indoors even when it is above zero.
Cara made this T Rex at school on Tuesday and shared her hot chocolate with it!
 I got another new lens for the camera (thanks to air miles!)
A nice little portrait lens so I can capture goofy shots of Cara!
 And some smiley ones too!
 Cara reads a book to Gwen.
 She was starting to feel better by then end of the week (but still hacking). And she passed the germs on to Gwen so now Gwen is hacking too!
 Daddy and Gwen playing Gwen's favourite game: Jake and the Neverland Pirates Matching! She is really good at making matches but still learning about taking turns.
Gwen's game face.
Gwen is out growing her afternoon naps now (staying up until 10pm is so not cool).  But she has a hard time not falling asleep by supper time without the nap...so it might be an every few days need the nap.  She isn't very interested in the potty right now either but we're going to start reading her some books about pottys and see how that goes - Cara is super excited to help Gwen learn to use the potty but Gwen is so not into it.  She just wants to stay the baby forever!!!

  1. The book they're reading is one of Connor's favorites :) Good luck with the potty - we're in a low interest zone here too.
    Hope everyone is feeling better soon.
