All Sorts

I didn't make this cake (google image), but Heather and I did make one just as delicious. She

had pineapple upsidedown cake at a friend's house the other week and loved it. Just hearing about it made me very nostalgic for my mother's homecooking, so we found a recipe and yumyum.

Three-in-one:

Rather than spreading the girls out into the numerous bedrooms in this house, we are jamming them all into one. Claire has moved in with the big girls and Laura has got her own room, so no longer has to put up with her parent's snoring. It's going reasonably well.

I've got eyebrows:

Actually, it sounds like, "me dot eyebwows". Last month Claire began listing everyone she knows who has eyebrows. The other night she was cuddled in with me for a few hours and in the dark I felt this little hand reach out to my face and begin stroking my eyebrows.

Pot of Gold:

Guess what badge you get when you move up from Rainbows to Brownies, as Ailsa has done this week. That's right, the Pot of Gold badge. get it?

Thud. Waaa!:

Laura is trying to stand up, holding on to the couch, table, anybody's legs, the bin, anything. She falls down a lot. These are tearful times.
