Too long off school… :-(

Poor Olly has had too much time off school, what with three weeks Christmas vacation and now the lurgy, he is no longer wishing to go 🙁

Three mornings this week the poor little monkey has done all he can to not stay at school when we have taken him.  Ranging from prolonged toilet visits as soon as we arrive to handing onto daddy’s trouser legs while screaming to not leave him…. 🙁

It is a little heartbreaking to have to leave him but we are certain that he does enjoy it once he has forgotten about being there.

Elliot has similarly decided that he must be poorly since everyone else has been and it might, just might score him some time at home to play on the 3DS some more 🙁

They both seem to have had enough of the cold weather however, and while they do want the snow to stay in the garden, I think that they are both very keen to see it all get a bit warmer when they are outside…

 

No additional snow and lurgy….

There has not really been any additional snow fall overnight but I don’t thing any of the Fork Hall residents care either way…..

It’s because we are slowly all contracting the lurgy that Olly has brought in 🙁 Daddy is first to fall with it and Elly will be a close second. Mummy thinks she is going to avoid it but I fear she may be delusional on this fact 🙁

Pyjama day is on the cards today 🙂

Ready for fun in the snow this weekend…

The meteorogical office have been telling us via various newsreaders for the last 10 days that there is horrific snow coming and each day it has not arrived.  Each day the forecast is that the snow is coming tomorrow – that sort of thing 🙂

Well, we did get a little snow yesterday afternoon and it has pretty much all hung around over night and stayed all day today.  The temperature has not got above 0 Celcius for about 4 days at present and the kids (read Elliot) have complained about being cold each time we have walked from the car to school or from school to the car.  Apparently tonight is THE night and we are deep in anticipation of the white stuff dropping on us tonight.  We have certainly experienced a bit of dry snow blown around us tonight during school collection but it has now stopped 🙁

So, it remains to be seen – will we wake to more snow in the morning?
