Losing the rhythm.

A fortnight or so ago we seemed to be just getting into a good rhythm and with it being much more productive.  Then along came a Granny, a birthday, a birthday party and a day of much sickness on M's part and things have completely gone to pot.  Ho hum.  We've agreed we're going to try to get back into what we'd found seemed to be working rather nicely.  Wish us luck!
In other news both girls have made/are making dinosaurs.  Instead of a party bag, M gave each of her party guests a dinosaur sewing kit when they left at 5.30pm.  K had finished making hers by bedtime, although she found it necessary to modify it slightly.  The pack said it was a tyrannosaurus, but it had 3 claws on it's arms (which as everybody who has met my children knows, means it couldn't possibly be a tyrannosaur as they had only 2), so rather than rename it an allosaurus she trimmed one of the claws off each arm.

M hasn't started her sewing kit yet, but she was given some Dino Creator Lego for her birthday and has started (having first made a dog, freehand so to speak)  making one of the 3 options, although I haven't been told which yet.  She only started this evening, but it seems to be going well so far.
