A typical day in the Myhre household

 

It's always fun to see what kids come up with to pass the time. Here's Frank, operating on a clementine, which involved first dissecting it and then sewing it back together. 

(This is also a great way to confuse your siblings who will later happen upon a clementine stitched together with thread.)

Coco

I don't write about Coco much on here, but she's still around and eating everything in sight. She loves sitting on Seth more than anyone else. She doesn't sit on me much, but she really enjoys sitting on whatever I am working on. If I am reading the paper, she tries to sit on it, always right where I am reading. There can be 10 other papers in the vicinity, but she prefers the one I am reading. The computer is a popular pick for her as well. Bills, taxes, etc. are also enticing. The other day we started a new puzzle. And of course, when I started working on it, she did this. 

I couldn't push her off for fear of ruining our progress so I just waited for her to get bored and leave on her own. Luckily it didn't take long and she very carefully stepped over all the pieces as she walked away, but I've started making sure the door is shut before I work on the puzzle now!
