Wey Hay Daddy is home & 24th to 28th week wrap

Monday 28th - today was back to playgroup and thankfully Daisy had returned to her normal self so she went to ballet with Nanny Maureen this afternoon and was allowed to watch a little tv when she got home and the most exciting thing was story time with daddy which took a rather long 40 minutes as they were both having so much fun. Sam has been very clingy today so I have not got much done as most of the time has been spent cuddling him and playing with toy cars!

Sunday 27th - we named today chill out Sunday as this is what we have done all day. This morning I had the treat of a lay in and then went on my own to meet Ted for breakfast at the Metropole which was lovely (and I eat far too much), I then came home and off we went to church and Tim cooked lunch afterwards. The boys hung out at home whilst I took Daisy to her friend's Holly 4th birthday party and then Tim cooked a delicious dinner and we relaxed watching the 'Wedding Crashers' - very funny movie.

Saturday 26th - Cala and I set out early for some retail therapy in Brighton. I treated myself to a couple of things and also had to stock up on some clothes for Daisy as she has suddenly grown and some of her tops are like cropped tops on her these days. In the afternoon it was the 'Parker Ireland Car Wash' - three cars that were once dirty inside and out became sparkling clean (although Daddy's should have carried a health warning before cleaning). Cala did the washing, I did the interiors and Daisy did the wheels on all three cars which is impressive for a 3.5 year old. Although by wheel ten she said "I am fed up of doing all the wheels, I want to do windows next time!"

This evening we went out to dinner with Nanny Maureen, Aunty Jo, Uncle Murp, Aunty Deb, Keith and a very dear friend of my parents, Ted Andrews. It was a lovely to see Ted and my little two were perfectly behaved considering it was well past their bedtime. We left the restaurant about 8.45pm and went to pick Daddy up from the airport, Daisy was so excited and kept asking if she could run to him so I had to drive past him which left Tim looking confused so Daisy could get out and do the big dramatic run and welcome which I know both she and Tim love!!! Daddys and their little girls!!!


The ladies start on Daddy's car - yes it is meant to be a silver car not silver with shades of black (i.e. dirt)


Mummy's car is looking shiny


The baby (and the cleanest to start off with) of the car family which belongs to Cala

Friday 27th - It was lovely having Nanny to stay as I got a bit of a lie in and then we all walked to playgroup together. Unfortunately Daisy was not very well behaved at playgroup which is quite unusual for our little lady even her key worker said it was out of character for her. She was put on the naughty step and her reaction was ' Good, I need some piece and quiet from you lot!' Anyway due to her behavour she was not allowed to go to ballet, watch tv or have a bedtime story until she could prove that she could be good at playgroup, unfortuantely for her playgroup is two days away due to the weekend.

Thursday 26th - It was nursery for the little people and they were picked up by Nanny Maureen today as I had a big event which thankfully went really well but I did not get in until gone 2am so Nanny stayed over.
