back again…
1. I discovered an itunes gift card in some tidying from my birthday in June and purchased the new Jamie Cullum and Michael Buble…kind of fits the season. Havent had a chance to listen to them both yet. But Jamie is bopping away in my ears as i speak…..
write….
type…
never mind…
2. I just dont understand Twitter. I tried to and i am still largely flumoxed by it. Ben calls it stalking….i am probably not in an informed enough position to comment..;p
3. I am having our car valeted…valayed…valayededed!!?? ….
Anyway I am probably a little bit more excited about it that is acceptable. It is, after all, a car and I am, after all, a level headed, sensible individual…but…a CLEAN CAR!!! WAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH..no-one is ever going to be able to eat in it again…ever…ever…ever… water and things that don't 'crumb' is the way forward!
4. I keep telling this child to stop growing but he just won't listen..the cheek of it…
5. I went to Borders this morning and was very surprised to see closing down signs all over the store. I thought it was some sort of 'get them to spend loads before christmas' prankster type marketing at first. But then i chatted to one of the staff and she said that they had found out over the weekend and thought the store would only be open for another couple of weeks. I feel pretty sad and nostalgic about it really. I spent many an hour in there with my ante-natal buddies when Isaac was a baby…having a coffee and a natter. More recently my kids love to hang out there, its one of their favourite shops. They can grab a book and sit in the kiddie section and read…and of course i do have the memorable Potty training incident that will be ingrained on my memory forever….
ask me later….
6. In the above store this afternoon my 10 month old lovely decided to hoover up a sultana or raisin or something that had been left on the floor much to the horror of a new first time mummy that i had just bumped into. Just got to love baby immunity….right?…
right?….
*tap tap*
7. Poppy has been a cool little hanging out buddy over the past few days. She has been struggling to 'find' who she is lately i think. Since Maisie went to school i think she has been a bit lost…but in a good way…being a bit lost makes you look for directions. She is finding her way….
think that is bike grease by her mouth….
lovely 😉
8. Ballet shows are very very expensive….and im not just talking about the ticket priced either…yikes…im already mentioning to Matilda that 'not all girls have to do ballet!'
9. Poppy is learning Spanish at pre-school. She loves it. They did Flamenco dancing a few weeks ago and she calls it 't-menco.' Mind you I did ask her to say hello to me in spanish and she said..
'Bonjour'
um…….er…..should i?
nah…….
10. So we tried a little mini photoshoot on saturday for the christmas cards. But it didn't go too well. Involved sleeping babies, sulky children and the police..(another story probably best not posted to the blog)
So i didnt actually get a picture of all of us….and in the end ran out of time and desire…
so going to try again this weekend, its probably my last chance to get them actually in the post in time for the big day 🙂
just a little outtake…
