a shorter day

as after a late night, I didn’t surface terribly early, But I feel like I got a reasonable amount done round the house, even if I did occasionally get in between dd and her beloved tv a couple of times.

This afternoon, even though it as snowing slightly, I togged us all up and we went out for a walk. Dd was thrilled to do number spotting again, and seems to be getting the hang of how numbers hang together. Then we cooked tea together which she enjoyed cooking, and then decided that she didn’t like to eat. That’ll be fishfingers and a waffle then I guess.

Almost got some work done tonight – ds is geting more difficult as he gets older whereas dd was a difficult baby and got easier. Still, keep hoping that one of these nights I might feed him into submission.
