Bathtime

Today was ace. In the morning we had 5 guests for brunch and made lots of pancakes, eggs and bacon, stacks of toast and things like that for a Waltons-esque feast. Husband had a night out overnight (his turn!) so Leah kept me company for some takeaway and trash TV. Before we settled down to that though, we had to get the children ready for bed. Zac wanted the photo taken, Tab didn't - you can tell...

Another week done

Leah, Denise and I are displaying our floral corsage bracelets and glasses of a bizarre pink cocktail, purchased in big pitchers for £11.50 a pitcher. Bargain! It wasn't very nice though. However, the night was a lot of fun, and much dancing was done. We were all in high spirits having planned a weekend of the utmost fun, and it did not disappoint.

Friends

Zac insisted that I took this photo as we left Fun Club (Tuesday afternoon activity of choice). It's a photo of him and his little friend, who spent most of Fun Club building bizarre structures out of soft foam mats.

Red noses

Pester power led to the acquisition of these today. I had to take the photo in a tearing hurry once the children had lined up, because Tab's nose is so dinky that the foam noses fall off very quickly. Irritatingly, the foam splits quite easily so a tantrum or two was had later on due to ripped noses.

Tea party

All was quiet in the sitting room, so we crept through to hear Tabitha, Zac and my nephew Sebastian helpfully dishing out wooden cakes to each other and making tea-party-appropriate small talk. Very cute. I took this photo in a hurry so it's a bit rubbish.

Health vs. pizza

Lovely day. Train journey on my own (aren't such events blissfully peaceful when you have children?!), a yummy lunch and an afternoon of girly shopping. Then husband joined me and we went to a housewarming party, and I only got us a little bit lost finding our friend's house.

This photo is of my lunchtime pizza. The rocket and olives give a satisfying illusion of healthy goodness.

Aquadraw

This is a photo I took last night, at my friend Leah's when she was making us yummy home-made pizzas. My friend Denise brought her lovely little boy Oliver and he amused us all with his comedy toddler comments and scribbles on the Aquadraw.
