More Easter Photos

 Here is Levi playing with his new Spirograph.  I was very excited when Catch of the Day had one about three weeks ago.  I thought that Levi would love the symmetry of the whole thing and the mathematics.  He did.  This one had a stencil set as well and a place to put all the discs.  It was great!  Better than I thought it would be. 

Then this is what he looked like after the whole day.  He fell asleep snuggled up against Icy.  He hasn't really slept with any of the other stuffed animals since he was given Icy after Christmas.  Now if I can just get Icy away long enough, I can actually wash the poor thing!

Easter haul

Last night we put out carrots for the Easter bunny.  Levi wanted to put out four carrots so the bunny could have one to eat at night as he did his rounds and then another three for the next three nights because he would need to recover.  So Levi's Easter bunny gives out toys rather than lots of chocolate.  He gets one egg or something little, but after the hunt yesterday I think he doesn't need too many other sweets.  

It has been a long weekend for the whole country, a really long weekend.  We have until Wednesday off because Anzac day was fortuitously on the same weekend.  It has been a long weekend for us as well because there is a little farm stay family living upstairs while Jo is on the island.  They are great but very tiring.  Sena is a 9 year old who is functioning about Levi's level and they play together quite well but Sena has no idea that anyone would want (or need) any quiet time, so I have been actively keeping them apart at times.  I have also been cleaning up a lot.  The kids seem to discard whatever they are done with where ever they feel like it.  So I go around before nightfall, putting away scooters and bikes and picking up random chip packages that they have just dropped when done with them.  There is no real reason to try to make them do anything different, but at times I make them put things in the bin!

Levi has had a great few days though and has spent a bunch of time outside which has been good for him.  The weather has been perfect!  I hope that it stays this way!
