Happy Halloween!!



On monday we went to the music group Halloween Party, it was really fun, there was music, singing, dancing and bubbles as well as a parachute, balloons and biscuits!! Emily dressed quite appropriately as a witch! Tom was going to be Tigger but having had a growth spurt in the last couple of weeks, Tigger was too small so he went as a Manchester United Footballer complete with socks and trainers!! We are going to another Halloween party today at Beth's house with Fran, Louis and Finn, then at the weekend it is fireworks!! We are having some at our house on Friday then going to a party at Sarah's house on Saturday. Last year Emily loved the fireworks and Tom doesn't seem too concerned by loud noise so hopefully he will enjoy them too!!

Down on the Farm!!




We went to Roves Farm on tuesday with Beth, Fran and Louis. Had a brilliant time, Emily fed a goat! We went on a tractor, saw some pigs, drew a pumpkin and then had a tantrum in mothercare, but all in all a good day!

Tom is finally sleeping through, 5 days in the last week have been from 10.30/11pm till 7am!!

I also have lots of new friends on Facebook!! Well, old friends that have found me!!

Where did we go??


Been a while since I have posted anything on here because I am addicted to Facebook!! I have finally joined the masses and am requesting friendships and sending virtual drinks and flowers and doing bizare quizes sent to me by people I didn't hardly speak to at school! Have made some good connections with old friends again though and its fun to see what they all look like now!


Emily is doing really well with the potty training, she is managing to do everything on the loo now and is really good about asking to go when we are out. I was a bit concerned on Friday as we went to the Jolly Roger (or Jammie Dodger as Emily calls it) in Swindon with Finn and Abby and she was so excited that she didn't use the loo for 4 hours!! It was great fun, there is a huge soft play area which they had great fun follwing each other around as Abby and I sat having a drink on the sofas!! There is also a huge maze of levels and ball pits and all sorts including a huge slide which is probably the height of a standard house. Abby and I took it in turns to go up with them - we really enjoyed it they should make them for adults!!


Unfortunately Justin has gone on an extended holiday - he took the "tube" last weekend so Sarah Jane is patiently awaiting a replacement mate!
