Tail end of week 4- leaf paintings, moth hunting and constellations

I had to start a new blog post cos I couldn't fit all my photos in one place.

LEAF PAINTING

We came back from our walk in the wood and did some leaf painting.

We found sycamore leaves and beech going through today and a purple sycamore leaf. Very curious stuff.







Finally got round to using my IKEA frames I've had since I got them off a colleague who was throwing them out in September 2019. Now to get a hanging kit sorted. It's not the weather for log fires just now, so I'll get away with leaving them there for now. 
After lunch I was just so in need of getting out to clear my head. Currently I've got 15 (started with 26 of the 100 CVC words taped to my floor to try and teach my kids their reading. If they know a word I can rip it off the floor. There's only so much app based learning I can tolerate it can turn them into zombies. But then I am happiest in my garden chilling on my kids trampoline with a duvet and a cuppa once they've gone to bed and completely tech phobic. 

Can't wait til this is all over and can stop this online shopping carry on.

 Andy in his good grace, got a roomba last night. A hoovering robot to make my life easy.....i think. 

Last night I tripped over it and fell like a circus performer as it suddenly changed direction before being met with a shaking head and why did you walk towards it - it was trying to hoover your feet. Fecking technology. He also set it to come on during the night while we were sleeping. 

Oh
My
Goodness I got a fright 😂😅🦄

The kids are also thinking Alexa is their new friend. Wee souls have been talking to her saying cute things but the Alexa doesn't understand them too easily! 

 "Alexa did you have a nice sleep "
"toy sheep added to shopping list" 😂😂👌

Thats their pictures from today framed 😊😍
