What have we been doing for a month!


We havent posted for a whole month - what slackers. Obviously life is not exciting enough. Here is our very humdrum news. We have been homebodies pretty much. Yesterday went to a lecture for children on pterosaurs, which J very much enjoyed - particularly the demonstrations of flight. Part of the Cambridge Science festival which is always good but very crowded. Lots of kids parties, including snake parties, the latest craze where reptiles come to the party and the kids all get to touch and learn. Little M went to a football party today, which she enjoyed but I am not quite sure why given she was one of 2 girls and as far as I can see hung out on the sidelines most of the time, but she got stuck in to the party games and seemed to have a good time. She is pretty tall and fast so when she joins in she keeps up with all the boys no problem. Then its been an endless round of school and sickness. J has started his visual therapy which he says is more fun than the exercises he has to do for his kness anyway.
Looks like all announcements of spring were premature!! Its been freezing, and we have had more snow in the past couple of weeks than the rest of the winter (well the bits we were here anyway)! Kids went to Duxford today to look at the aeroplane museum, something they enjoy with R, big M has been once, thats enough for her - so she stayed home!!
