Sophie's had a busy few days

We started off Sunday with an early start and headed off to Balerno to visit Great Auntie Catherine and Great Uncle Gavin. Claire, Declan, Euan and Erin were also there for the visit which was lovely.

"I'll be ready in a minute - I'm watching Andrew Marr"

A great feed and lots of chat later we packed ourselves up and headed to Longniddry to see Dave, Briony, Freya and Isaac who we hadn't seen for a while. We had a great catch up and got to check out the McLaughlin camper van which was pretty cool although we have no pics sorry!

 

We got home late on Sunday and Sophie complained cos we were late for her bathtime but we finally nodded off to sleep in preparation for the busy week ahead.

Today was Sophie's second round of immunisations - we missed the last appointment due to a variety of other things going on (hospital stay) so it was time to catch up.

Sophie prepared for the immunisations by reading up on what to expect....

 

And after once again being an absolute star during the whole "double jag" procedure - Sophie decided she should just chill out.......

And whilst Dad and Grandad mended the washer/dryer Sophie and Mum had some well earned quiet time upstairs.

Sophie was supposed to be going to a Mums and Baby weigh in tomorrow but apparently Princess Anne is coming to our town tomorrow for a visit and the club is cancelled so maybe Sophie will just go up to say hello ;o)

Wimbledon 2011

Anyone for Tennis? Katie and I had planned (and were looking forward to) an exciting weekend down in Londinium to watch some Tennis at Wimbledon. It's been a busy year and with all the applying for jobs and stuff it was a good way to finish the school term. Our friend Clare had tickets for Katie and herself and I was just going to wing it when I got down there.

Flights were booked and we had made plans to catch up with friends, but unfortunately about two days before we planned to travel I got a call telling me I had a job interview that was smack in the middle of our travel plans so I had to pull out. As it turns out I would have been better just going to watch the tennis as the interview was a bit of a waste of time.

Anyway, I'll leave Katie to add to this post at some point and tell you how great it all was but for now I will just put up some photos from Katie's trip. The photos of my interview preparation and subsequent disappointment aren't exciting enough to make it onto the blog.

In the meantime please try and play "Spot Big Joe" - in photograph 2 Katie snapped Joe in the crowd, now it's your turn to spot him. Joe teaches at the school I was at last year and was on a school trip - he doesn't really need describing, you should be able to see him if you look. Good luck!
