We have snow. And its coming down fast!

They come home with a rabbit. Meet Smarty, shortly to become under-the-thumb toyboy for Button. Of course i am utterly paranoid that there is a lurking flea somewhere so he is confined to sterile barracks till i get him to the vet on monday. Cute though. And its supposed to be me who does the […]

First of all, a couple of book references for Nic and someone else. Can’t remember who though! Come Look with Me – that art book… All the Tales from the Ark – the Noah Book. Actually, i’ve not got the first one, it was Alexia’s. I do like it but i have a fair few […]

Duffle, wellies and princess dress.. you gotta love it. I don’t like dentists… Gamecube-mania. what WAS the game that Fran was playing the first night? Rolling down a hill or something? Just like her sisters, Josie likes the tv. Just after this, she managed a half rollover and twisted herself round 90 degrees too. Gulp.

Oh well, I’m feeling better anyway. Unfortunately Maddy has raging earache and Josie has raging snot and a cough like i’ve not heard on a baby before :~/ Roll on pox. Grumble. Today was a haul in the reins, pull up the sofa day. We had biscuits, cuddles, sofa, biscuits, dvds and so on. I […]

Felt so awful in fact that i lazed all morning, the kids played gamecube and various make up games and i lounged miserably. Must be stricter about the gamecube […]

I’m sick of watching small children failing to grasp the concept of straight edges and jigsaw puzzles…

Well Josie has green gunge coming out of one eye and i, after a rather hazy day, have suddenly realized i’ve got tonsilitis. Marvellous. Oh well. Fortunately, the girls were quite good today – Maddy did her Egyptian sticker book, Fran made hama frogs with the new boards, Ammi had some stories and discovered she […]

When we started on the whole “slightly more structure” thing last summer, it was because i had got to a point where i couldn’t quite cope with how short Fran’s concentration span was. It felt like i couldn’t give anyone else any time at all. *comes back two hours later after concentration lapses* Its been […]

We’ve been working on this today… or rather ordering Tim about while he worked on it! I’m just about to place a poll on MP to see if we get any interest so i’m putting the image here for people to see.
