You've got mail!

If there is one thing we like around here, it's mail. Sebastien was happy to get a couple of parcels in the mail for his birthday and he is now very adept at opening them. Even better - they also had little presents for Alex too, so fewer fights.

Sebastien's main game with his new dinosaurs is the "into the tube, out of the tube" game. That was until Alex introduced him to putting them in the cars in the toyroom.

Sebastien (and Alex too) really likes his new train track - he checked it all out at ground level. But within a few days he'd decided that it needed some additions. Then about ten days later Mummy walked past to see this:

When Alex is at home, Mumy often hears "Share! Share!" from the toyroom as Sebastien insistently asks for Alex to return one of the Thomas trains to his use.

We have also started our postcard wall. Just as we had in Champaign-Urbana. We're slowly accumulating postcards from different people and having them up here often starts conversations with Alex about where they're from, what that place is like and who sent them to us.
