SO obviously rumours of her disappearance somewhat overstated! in fact, she was sighted in Leeds, so being a kind soul, I took her and children in for the day.
Visitors
We had a huge amount of noise, but SB and Big mostly played beautifully together with only a little bit of jockeying for pole position.

Small, as always, was a dream, and quietly did his own thing. BB also reasonably good [bearing in mind hideous night - more later]. Big not keen on the muffins, but did eat half, so coudn’t have been that bad. SB says we have to make a different cake next time. [socialisation]
Jax and I got to have a natter, and I got a glimpse of SB’s HE future. Both are certainly strongwilled bright girls! We missed the programme on radio 2 though as I was a bit of a crap hostess nad lost track of time, so it was 2pm before I got lunch out :?( and b then programme done and gone.
Other things
We had an appalling night from BB, up for over 2 hours unsettled. today she has developed a cough, maybe that. I had storming migraine, so couldn’t have been timed worse. In the end I succumbed to the tablets as could see no other way of getting through the day. I dont really like to take medication while bf. BB been a bit grouchy all day. Although she liked the water filled thing, she wasn’t up for being on her tummy long. At the mo we are making a bit of a pigs ear at feeding.
SB‘s Nana sent her an easter present of a magazine and book, and a mini packet of celebrations which she soon polished off. We read the magazine and did the games in it. [reading] We also finished the thankyou letters at last! [writing]
A bit of adjusting when Jax left saw SB stropping round the house. Settled with making up her marble run and cooking tea with Daddy. My migraine come back with a vengeance, so am going to try and lie down like dying duck on sofa!!
Days summary: lovely day, good to see children learning negotiating skills, albeit reluctantly! I could do with some sleep though. Oh, and feeling gutted that my nan’s breast cancer spread more in the bones
