…we have all been well. political shenanigans at work seem to be going to cause me more angst [sigh!]
SB has had some rides on her new bike – it looks enormous – which means her old bike [puky] was obviously due a change! it is a rather lovely islabike with gears ‘and everything!’ . So she has really enjoyed riding it. I think I need to get riding again.
We have done lots of playing with castle stuff, hama-ing, plasticining. Also a fair bit of raven watching and magic school bus. Sb has been reading her usborne books bought from Joanna last week [thanks ].
We visited merry yesterday and i got to see her stockroom – always a fab experience! i was very restrained, and walked away with some gold hama beads – yes, you do want them! i oohed and aahed over the rather fab baby dinodors. I had a sneak preview of some ranges to be added as well which seemed a brill idea. May well save up for this for SB Xmas
we went on to kiddicare and finally bought a different carseat for SB, agreeing we had made a crap choice the first time – well the cars seat is fine, it just doesn’t fit well in our car. SO now we have a concord one, which fits beautifully.
I am now quivering over buying blokus and settlers of catan [is there an online version of that we could play?] but think after carseat and birthday bike i had better let bank balance recover!!
Next week i think we should really try and do some home -ed!
Ooh that loom looks lovely I remember having one as a child and we were looking at a huge one at Fishbourne last week.
Glad she’s enjoying the books, Helen. (Ahem – let me know if you need my address when you pay me for them?!!)
aaargh! i specifically asked chris to pay you as he was packing up, and he said he had!! men cannot be trusted!! email me address for cheque or bank details for transfer, and i will give him a shout and clout!
ah ha! This looks suspiciously like a house I recognise!
it does indeed! hello!
