November

November's been a busy month, you may recall I had a very long to do list and boy that got longer as the month went on but I managed to get through most of it (well other than 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 25 & 28) but I did also get loads more done too that wasnt on the list.

UnfortunatelyI didnt have a great deal of time to update the blog therefore got a little behind but it is on my December to do list (you dont even want to see how long that is).

Anyway some photos from November.

First day of Christmas

we woke up with a dusting of snow!

Thankfully Daisy's school was still open as I had a lot of work to do with Jo for Tea Cups & Tiaras. Nan and Grandad popped over to look after Sam whilst I went to Jo's and then Tim was allowed home from work early as the weather was getting worse. Sammy boy and Daddy had great fun playing in our snowy garden.

We all met Daisy from school and walked home in the snow, as you can see from below Sam's love the snow from eating it to rolling around in it! Unfortunately his big sister isnt so keen!

it snowed!

Our dancing queen

The little lady has started a new dance school on Saturday mornings, 9am to 10.45am and loves it. They do sessions of street dance and free style. Nanny Maureen is taking her and sometimes she gets to have a sleepover on Friday which she is so excited about.

Our soccer tot!

Sammy boy has started 'Saturday Soccer school'. He goes off with Daddy at 9am and trains/plays between 9.30am and 10.30am.

The first session was going really well and Daddy even rang to tell me half way through but when they got home I found out the second part didnt go so well as when they started to play a game Samuel didnt like it when he lost the ball so he stormed off the pitch and refused to go back on and declared that he was never going again.

After explaining to him during the week how football works the second session went great and Sam now loves going.

Happy Birthday Grandad
