I’m late again with Living Arrows this week. Being late last week, and then going on holiday has got me all out of sync. I haven’t missed a post for probably a year or two now though so I’m not about to start this week!

I’m so late with my Living Arrows post this week. The time just seems to have got away from me somehow. And the boys are going to bed a bit later with it being the holidays, which is fine but leaves me even less time to do anything in the evenings!

Since starting school Toby has been to dozens of birthday parties but he’s never had one of his own, other than small family parties at home. After his last birthday though he started asking if he could have a party for his 6th birthday with his friends from school.

We have survived another week of the summer holidays! If I listed all the things we have been doing it would probably sound like we’ve been having a lovely time, and there have been some fun times but I’d be lying if I didn’t also tell you there there has been a lot of squabbling and quite a lot of shouting (mostly from me) too!

I’m a bit late with my Me & Mine post for July (so what’s new?) – mostly because once again I wasn’t organised enough to get any family pictures during the month so we ended up having an impromptu photo shoot in the garden yesterday instead! Read more

I’m a bit late with my Living Arrows post this week, but I didn’t take any pictures of Toby last week so I thought I might as well wait and use his ‘last day of Year 1’ photo for this week’s post. Toby finally broke up for the summer holidays today and he was definitely ready for it – it’s been a struggle to get him out of bed and ready to go the last week or two. Read more
Last week was all about Toby’s birthday in our house (and a bit about Gabe’s too even though it’s not for another 5 weeks!) On Thursday Toby turned 6 years old and he has been totally spoilt with presents and a brilliant party yesterday. Read more
This last week has seen us creeping closer to the school holidays. Gabe had a leavers’ party at nursery (even though he’s got another two weeks to go) – I wasn’t sure he was going to want to go as it wasn’t on one of his usual nursery days, but in the end he did and he really enjoyed it from what I could gather!
