I’m a bit late with this week’s Living Arrows post and if you read on I’m sure you’ll forgive me! I mentioned at the end of last week’s post that Barry and I were going to London this weekend… well we did make it there but it wasn’t quite the weekend we’d planned! Read more
So this is the last Living Arrows of November, and there are only 5 more to go before the end of the year! I sound like broken record but I am constantly amazed at how fast this last few months of the year is going. We don’t seem to do much during the week except school, nursery and swimming lessons but we are trying to make the most of our weekends at the moment. Read more
Blimey, week 47 already! It feels like the last third of this year is absolutely flying by. This week has been another normal one for us really. The boys got to wear Pudsey t-shirts for school and nursery this week – they were supposed to wear spots but I always just buy the t-shirts instead. That way I’m donating to a good cause as well as not having to worry about finding them something to wear! Read more
Another week over already. Toby is very much on the countdown to Christmas already and has been writing his letter to Father Christmas this week. I think we’ll manage with most things he’s asked for, except perhaps the pet tortoise! Read more
If you read my Living Arrows post last week you’ll know we had a lot of tears on the first day back at school and nursery last week. Fortunately it was short-lived and Toby and Gabe were both OK for the rest of the week. Toby went in every day with a big smile on his face and Gabe, despite moaning about not wanting to go to nursery, was absolutely fine when he got there and didn’t even cry when I left him! Read more
And just like that half term is done. Unfortunately we had quite a lot of tears about going back to school and nursery this morning but I’m hoping it’s just because it was the first day back and tomorrow will be better. We didn’t do an awful lot during the holiday – both boys just need time at home to decompress, relax and recover I think and hopefully they managed to do that. Read more
Although it doesn’t seem like Toby has been back at school for long, it’s actually been seven weeks and that means it’s half term time. We definitely need it here – both boys are shattered, they’ve both got colds and they are just generally in need of a break and a few days lying around at home and not doing much. Read more
It’s been a fairly quiet week here, just the usual school and nursery and running errands. We’ve only got one week to go until half term and I think the boys are both ready for a break. I really need to think of some things to fill our time though or it won’t feel like much of a break for me! Read more
Monday again! Another week done which means it’s time for another Living Arrows post. I was away this weekend in the Lake District with a lovely group of bloggers (I’ll be writing all about it very soon!) so it meant picture taking duty fell to Daddy again this week. Read more
