Marlee's first person

It has been a rather crummy day here, cold, rainy and windy so we have had indoor projects after Marlee got home from preschool. His teacher, by the way, is very impressed by him because he is the only one in class who can say the whole "Our Father" so he is the "leader" when they say it in class :-) Well, his teacher is not the only one he impressed today... today he draw his first person/tadpole figure/huvudfoting, except it did not have his arm out his ears but actually below his head!!!

Well, it is not only Marlee who tried something new lately. I made chili con carne with grounded turkey the other day and it worked just as good as beef, only half the price :-) Alex said that he could never tell that it was not beef!

 

Chili con pavo-carne (turkey meat)

Snacks in the garden. Note that Marlee is not wearing a sweater while Noah is both wearing a hat and a bandana-scarf, all requested by his royal Highness Noah. <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

 

 

 

The day has been very good and we have been very creative with glitter, papers, glue and crayons but it ended not so good. When we got home from picking up Alex Marlee barfed a lot (on the carpet) and was feeling very bad. Alex had to finish a very urgent article  and said he was sorry that he could not help with cleaning it up. I am pretty sure he was rather relieved than sorry :-P Anyways, Marlee is cleaned and so is the carpet (I really had to struggle with feeling bad for Marlee and not for myself while cleaning :-/ ). He went to sleep good and I really hope that he will feel better tomorrow, poor thing!!!

 

While Marlee was feeling bad Noah had a blast with a bucket on his head. The video is pretty long so I uploaded it on youtube instead of here. Not sure how that is going to work but I am sure it will work somehow. Enjoy! Thanks, Jackie, I had no idea the bucket could be this much fun!! :-)
