After the sleepin!

well, we all needed it. We decided to have a relaxed day. So we have mostly pootled about and played games.

SB has got quite keen on Set, so we played that until BB couldn’t help but be overinterested! We then made some bracelets and necklaces with a bead kit she got for her birthday. The first one she made was for BB – what a lovely sister!

We did do some reading together – but mostly me doing the reading! Clifford the big red dog – well it was better than spongebob. She also had a look at what I believe. lots of playing with happy street – so much for her having outgrown it! We did some hama stars – apparently for Merry’s girls – SB obviously thinks they don’t have enough hama in their house – rofl!

BB and I did a lot of playing. She had a go threading bobbins on a string – more succesfully than I thought she would be, also happy stereting, and playing with dolly. She whipped away all the bead bracelets she could get hold of, and had a go at maxi hama too. SB and BB played together beautifully throughout the day [if rather noisily].

SB says she wishes she had a twin or an older sister to play with. She would quite like Violet – should she be on offer! She compared my dismal reproductive status with that of the puddles and the porticos quite dsipassionately. I had to point out that 2 was rather normal, even if the age gap was bigger than she would have liked. So we had a bit of a discussion about how old you had to be to have a baby, and why people didn’t have one all the time :rolls: so did subfertility before we did how conception stuff works.

Today I also sowed some seeds, but SB declined, so tomato gardeners delight and alicante; peppers Meek and Mild poblana, inferno and big banana; manegetout oregon sugar pod [in root trainers]. Had a hissy fit at the not budgeting that has been going on – so failing at frugality in the last month. I guess birthdays and Melrose together weren’t helpful. Must claw back! [especially since buildings insurance of 630 due - aargh]
We will play a game of her choice now when she comes downstairs before bedtime, so should be a nice day.
