Updates

Here are some things that I wanted to post even though they happened awhile back:

First of all, we had a wonderful visit from our friends Robert and Teresa, but RIGHT after they left we had a bunch of other visitors arrive and I didn't get their visit blogged until now. We had a really fun time running, playing, and Play-doh'ing with them (well, I was running a mite late and I actually played with cookie dough, not Play Doh, but still...) Here Robert is pictured with his teal and fuchsia Play-Doh rendering of our mutual friend Paul.

Also, the Sunday after Nora celebrated her Dinosaur Day, we took up the carpet on our first floor with Grandma and Toot Toot. Ian and I had anticipated doing this the following weekend while the girls spent the weekend with their grandparents for the very first time; but Grandma and Toot Toot were curious, and once we started pulling up a corner we couldn't stop ourselves. That ended up being a good thing on two counts, because Fiona was able to get in on the act this way (check out the dress-up clothes she wears while working), plus the following weekend Ian and I were free to work on other home renovation tasks instead.
