lil red squirrel: July 2013
http://lilredsquirrel.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 29. Spencer received a smile award this morning at assembly. It was so well timed for him - and also deserved. On Friday, while waiting for the boys to rush them off to basketball, Spencer's teacher excitedly grabbed me. She had just retested Spencer since the holidays and his reading was exceptional. She was so thrilled that he had gone up not one but 6 levels in reading! He had gone from not meeting their required level for mid year, to exceeding that level! Monday, July 29, 2013. We enjoy...

lil red squirrel: May 2013
http://lilredsquirrel.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 31. This is a wordy one so skip it if you'd like. But I felt they were behind educationally. They were initially in separate grades to give them the opportunity to develop as individuals. This was great. I would pop in and see the teachers, both independently said They're doing fine. I would say Really? And they would give me a weird look and say - Yes! So, I would wander off thinking how different are the kids at school to at home? Friday, May 31, 2013. Links to this post. Sunday, May 26.

lil red squirrel: Motivation
http://lilredsquirrel.blogspot.com/2014/10/motivation.html
Sunday, October 5. Today I managed to get my stuff together and arrange for everyone to be somewhere so I could go out. As a sidebar, I have to say I find it really frustrating that if I want to do anything, it is my responsibility to ensure everyone else is sorted. Even if I am going out for dinner with the girls, I have to feed everyone before I go. I digress. Sunday, October 05, 2014. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Skip to my Lou.

lil red squirrel: December 2013
http://lilredsquirrel.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, December 31. Wishing you and yours a colourful and exciting new year. From me and mine! Tuesday, December 31, 2013. Links to this post. Monday, December 16. What a surprise that I can find my way back here for a whinge! Seriously- it is like something has possessed the kids turning them into the worlds naughtiest boys. Yesterday I finally cleaned the twins room. While I was busy with this, our world started spinning out of control. Benji found a smiley face stamp and 'decorated' a white door.

lil red squirrel: February 2014
http://lilredsquirrel.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 24. I've gotta say, I find making lunches for school a real drag! First they seem to need lunch EVERY day, and then on top of that they want variety! No its not really that bad, I just struggle to come up with food that fits our needs - healthy, allergy friendly and no rubbish. Their requirement is also tasty whereas mine is budget friendly. There is no particular recipe as it changes depending on what I have. This one has the following:. I mix that all together. Monday, February 24, 2014.

lil red squirrel: Reverse sexism?
http://lilredsquirrel.blogspot.com/2014/09/reverse-sexism.html
Tuesday, September 30. I am having a bit of an issue at the moment, grappling with the idea of feminism and equality. I know big thoughts. I am lucky to have choices and I am happy with the choices I have made. I have no desire to be the Prime Minister. I have enough trouble running the house, let alone a country. But this is my choice and I am not putting down anyone else's choice. Tuesday, September 30, 2014. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). A bit of shopping. End of an era celebrations.

lil red squirrel: Minecraft club
http://lilredsquirrel.blogspot.com/2014/10/minecraft-club.html
Wednesday, October 1. The boys are obsessed with making potions, so I incorporated this into a drink of milk, with flavours and also food colouring which they loved doing in little plastic milk bottles. The night finished with a movie (Lego Movie) in their sleeping bags. Wednesday, October 01, 2014. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Skip to my Lou. Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.

lil red squirrel: March 2015
http://lilredsquirrel.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 1. 10 is a good motivator. Its the first of March, the first day of Autumn and with all these firsts it is the perfect time to make some changes. We have all been in a bit of a rut and after 4 weeks back at school, I decided that if I wanted things to be different I had to feel and act differently about them. And here it is. The twins are now in grade 3 and have started getting homework. They have 2 weeks to do it and already in the first cycle, they forgot about it and left it too long...

lil red squirrel: August 2013
http://lilredsquirrel.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 19. Well only just enough fabric! This has the capped sleeve of version D and the collar (sans frill) of version A. It is closed with a skirt hook rather than trying to find the right button. This is the skirt - finished also today. It was mostly done last weekend, before I felt sick and it was simply a matter of finishing it off. I love the colours in this. I was happy to finish off another 2 projects. Saved from the UFO basket! Monday, August 19, 2013. Links to this post. I had always as...
