Endless Entertainment. Funny old day today really. The weather was pleasant and we planned to garden but i was completely exhausted all day and just had to sleep to catch up. Fran and i did make it into town where we got a piece of denim for our Africa display as well as bondaweb to […]

Maddy on thumb sucking. I just asked Maddy how sucking and twiddling makes her feel. She said “My thumb puts sunshine in my mouth and the twiddle puts sunshine in my head.” Obviously she still has baby teeth and i know that at some point we will have big teeth worries but for now i […]

Quick Blog. Just blogging quickly since we have Jax, Big and Small here for the night. Big and Maddy particularly have really hit it off and Ammi and Small seem to be doing okay too. Feel a bit sorry for Fran in a way although most of the day its all been very amiable. Not […]
