Have done my photoblog today, but you can find that over on the Monster & Teeny blog where educational stuff happens! I;ve been meaning to d o it all week and either had a bad day or forgotten, but when I caught Davies ‘reading’ to Scarlett this morning I decided it was too good a ‘first thing in the morning’ educational moment to miss so leap in with the camera 🙂
So at risk of repeating myself, we’ve had a really lovely day again, children mostly entertained themselves in the garden with a brief indoor drawing interlude allowing Ali and I plenty of chatting time. I’ve been feeling very ‘up’ generally this week so it was nice to end it on such a high, chatting about a couple of things I’d pretty much worked through but needed an ear to bend about anyway 🙂
We’ve done the second Family Film Night, this time without the sleepover. I think the sleepover idea is an OK one, but possibly better kept for a seperate night to FFN which is already a late night. They were both exhausted after mucho fresh air and exercise at Ali’s and then in our garden too but the film was pretty good and they were both asleep by about 8.30pm which is no later than a fairly normal night for Davies anyway.
I’ve made the jelly, fruit and sponge first layer of a couple of trifles ready for tomorrow and am about to have a bath and then get an early (ish) night as I’m due at the hairdressers at 9am.
Really looking forward to seeing those of you who’ll be there tomorrow 🙂
