It's been the big build up to Arthur's birthday this week - and what a lovely wee party we had.
We also went to Niamh and Emily's for a sleepover - as with all good sleepovers there was very little sleep happening for our kids and us - going to take a week to recover. Good times though and Emily and Niamh taught some new fitness routines to baby shark.
With us all feeling a wee bit jaded we decided to start part one of our volcano experiment - I have never made paper mâché in my life - here is hoping it works out ok - next stage paint and then we need vingear and bicarbonate of soda + food colouring.
Earkuer this week Gran Hilary came to spend some time with the kids whilst Katie was down in London - both kids loved seeing her and they all went swimming - Sophie wanted to show off her new tricks - sitting on the bottom of the pool, swimming underwater, picking up objects off the floor and doing somersaults in the water.
everyone also fitted in a visit to cousin David's house.
Also - the competition from the last post may be helped if I give you the latest extension photos
My current ideas for the space at the side of the house are something along these kind of lines - could be a crazy idea but with a wee fire it might be an ideal place to sit out and socialise in the future,
finally - Katie's colleagues very kindly put on a family day for staff last week and the kids had a great time. No expense was spared - apart from Santa it would appear. We see the real Santa next week,,,,.....
