Weekending

You wouldn’t believe how much fun it is to play “Charades” with Davy!

Three children playing together in a cozy living room, with one child doing a plank exercise on the floor while the others watch and laugh from the couch. The room features a rug, a floral-patterned chair, and various toys scattered around.

It’s basically “Guess What Animal I Am!” He really gets into it & he’s so darn cute! He does an awesome dolphin impersonation.

Kate’s in York for a few days before heading to London (and eventually home on Saturday)… and she found DAVYGATE!

I’m on Kai duty again for the next week, then, too. She misses Kate, but it’s going pretty well.

She went to day care four days in a row last week; this week it’ll be three days & broken up a bit. We went on some longer walks on the weekend, and yesterday Rusty & I took her out to High Cliff for a walk around the Butterfly Pond. (So many good smells!!)

I managed to take the time needed to sew the remaining seams…

…and have a “finished” quilt top! I even got all the pressing done over the weekend. It’s kind of astounding to think that I walked into the quilt class with a pile of fabric, some rulers, cutting tools & thread… and three months later, THIS! I opened my trusty Excel file & am working out ideas & proportions for the borders — I think there will be six altogether, half of them very simple (but not plain).
