Olly not well today :-(

As we were heading to bed last night, Olly advised us that he was feeling hot and that he needed some pink. Not a great sign for the coming night and days 🙁
He of course ended up stepping in our bed and is definitely under the weather again with a temperature etc. So,carter almost a month of goodness, he is back to being not well and so is not heading to school today after all 🙁
Fingers crossed, he will be fighting fit again really soon and normal services can be restored 🙂

Get well Olly xx

Olly’s turn in Chapel

This morning was Nursery and Pre Nursery Plus to deliver a little show for the rest of St Hilda’s in the chapel.  Oliver was extremely well behaved and walked in quietly and proceeded to sit down at the front and did not misbehave at all for the 20 minutes that the assembly was on.  He didn’t really get what they were all doing and as per the last time there was a nursery presentation, Olly didn’t appear to get involved in the singing – however when he got home tonight, he was full of the chorus and sang away like an early bird at sunrise 🙂

Number 16 – we have now got the hall, landing and stairs complete (although another coat will be required in the downstairs hallway in order to be considered totally finished), the bathroom ceiling is done and the lounge ceiling is 50% done.  Greg came around and fitted some shelving that needed replacing.  We are having a day off tomorrow apparently as we need to do some food shopping etc.  The plumber is presently at number 16 fitting the cupboard bottom under the kitchen sink 🙂

Vicky cleaned out the fridge as mould was re-appearing – it has now been banished to not return until after tenants move in.

Simon is actually getting the hang of painting and is actually quite enjoying it he claims :-s

 

Great weekend in the North-East

We nipped up to Great Grandma’s house on Saturday morning and were treated to a wonderful Roast Chicken lunch 🙂 We then went to take a Metro into the city centre as we had a toy shop to attend – Fenwicks.  Daddy was bitterly disappointed with the size of the toy fayre – only about 15% of the size that it used to be – guess it is a sign of the time with the bigger toy shops such as Toys R Us, but it used to be the ENTIRE 3rd floor – today it was no larger than the toy section of any average department store 🙁  But there were plenty of designer children’s wear in their place – shame we didn’t have more time to shop for such items….

We had a nice sleepover at Great Grandma’s although the boys needed separating as there was NO WAY that they were going to sleep together 🙁

Then on Sunday morning we had breakfast, went to play for an hour or so at TJ’s Jungle in Cramlington, followed by a little lunch, a quick shop and called into Claire and Mike’s before heading back to Ossett.

The boys seemingly want more sleepovers 🙂  Just could do with getting more sleep during these sleepovers 🙁
