Last week

When Scott is away working (as he was last week), Sam takes on his 'helpful' role. Helping me cook dinner. Chopping up courgettes - "yuk!" and even doing some English homework. Sam is learning to read and white (and speak) French at school, but we need to really start working on his English. I've had some tips recently from friends about how to 'play' little games in English and it works a treat!

And Bella, she would watch "Beast" all day long (Beauty and the Beast) if we let her.

Eating update (and a cute cardigan)

Mealtimes in Bella land are progressing nicely. Still a challenge? Yes. But, now she will happily sit at the table and after (a lot of) encouragement will eat most meals. She ate chicken and green beans the other night and we were all impressed. Now, if we could just get her to use her potty before she does a pee and not after..... everyone told me girls were much easier to potty train than boys, which isn't the case here!

Cute cardi which I love (and is a little too small) was found at the charity shop :)
