Now she is Five
… nearly six actually. Now that she is five she is at school from 9am until 4pm everyday. She has had her first solo playdate in the pueblo with a boy from school. She tells me that they fight “but not hitting”. OK, great. They mostly play Barbies.

Glamp Lamp
Looks gorgeous, right? Butter wouldn’t melt? Wrong. She has just handed me the biggest bogie ever to have graced this house, wearing exactly this expression. Stay alert, people. And beware 5 year olds bearing gifts.

April 5, 2012 by bibsey mama 18 Comments

E if for Expats. Not a hugely surprising entry for E from a girl like me I know. For those of you who are not familiar with the reference in the title, I live in Chris Stewart Country. This is not quite the same as saying that you live in Braveheart Country, but nearly. Chris … [Read more…]

Desmadre
