The last few days have been a bit of a whirlwind!
On Friday, Supergran and I took Moobles and VB to the farm. It was fabulous! They kids loved looking at the animals, and Supergran and I cooed over some teeny baby guinea pigs, but the big hit of the day was the adventure playground. Moobles choked down a couple of peanut butter sandwiches and then shunned the rest of the lovingly prepared picnic in favour of dangling precariously off climbing frames and walking the wrong way up slides. Velcro Boy cheerfully ate most of the picnic as well as a decent amount of sand and grass and then attacked SG while she was "resting her eyes" for five minutes.
The best, best bit of the day was a call from my lovely brother to let us now that him and his wife had just had a scan which confirmed they are expecting a healthy, wriggly baby on New Year's Eve! Hurrah!
Saturday was spent with some very lovely friends in Brockwell Park. We spent the morning in the paddling pool then retired for ice-cream and a run around. Gadget Man met us all after work and had a drum lesson to teach, so off we went. He went to teach his lesson and I took the kids to another park. They were grubby and exhausted by the end of the day, but had sooooo much fun!
Oh yay! Congratulations Iain and Sarah. Brill news.
