Cantilever

Today Joshua woke up and came into our bed for a snuggle. He was in our bed for about 2mins when he suddenly said "Mummy guess what? I have a good idea"
"Really what is your good idea Joshua?" I asked.
"Today we are going to make a cantilever!!" he replied enthusiastically.
After I got over the shock of my 3.5yr old telling me that he wanted to make a cantilever, I agreed that it would be a fun thing to do. (The cantilever idea comes from an awesome Curious George site on PBS kids where they explore science and do different activities... I guess Mummy never realised how much Joshua was taking in when he watched the videos on this site!!) So anyway we made a cantilever together and the result was great if not a little saggy.

One of each

Well it turns out that Joshua was right he is getting a baby brother and sister. The babies are growing well and my tummy is huge (no... I am not exaggerating... it really is huge) I am counting down the weeks until the babies arrive and I can have my body back :o) I am not the glowing pregnant woman type!!

Joshua has become really independent and can dress himself now and likes doing favours for Mummy (fetching things and picking things up off the floor so I don't have to bend) He even took pity on me last week (I must have looked pitiful) and said "i'll help you get dressed Mummy" and proceeded to put my socks on for me. Our roles are reversing already and he is only 3 and a half...HELP!!

Only a couple of months of incubating left until the twins arrive though and then it will be all go at the Green house. Will try to update more frequently from now on.
