Popping in from a couple of days break to bring you the winners of the give aways on the blog last week (it feels like a whole heap of similar things has come at once, normal service to be resumed soon I promise!) First of all, winners of the packs of Sea-Band products are:- Comment […]
Trauma and tears at ENT
Fran (who has given me permission to write this latest twist in her cleft care on the blog) had a routine trip to the ENT department this week. She was referred by her Cleft team surgeon and speech therapist, who were concerned by her hoarse voice, which has developed over the last year or so. […]
Under the Sea Party Costumes
At the weekend we attended the yearly fancy dress party over at The Beans. It was, as usual, an excellent do, though missing some of the usual suspects this year, but lovely anyway. I completely forgot to take photos, so I thought I’d mark the occasion with a display of our rather excellent costumes. They […]
Pressure or Suggestion? The result was certainly positive anyway.
Since the girls were little, we’ve had bouts of travel sickness that have afflicted the middle two girls at various times. To some extent it has always depended on the car we have – and moving to people carriers solved a lot of the problem – but both Maddy and Amelie have always found long […]
Dreams : One : Two : Three
We forgot to go to Freddie’s funeral. We were busy, the girls were alive and needed us and life goes on and… oh my word, it was today and we forgot. Max was okay with it; after all, it was just a procedure, he didn’t need us there, the girls needed us. It was just […]
Definitely stuck on this house! (Win a Velcro House!)
My children are incredibly lucky; since they were small, having a mum who sells toys and crafty stuff has meant they have had opportunities to try out all manner of things. It is possible that the new Velcro Kids House is the best thing ever though 🙂 They’ve decorated, they’ve performed with it and they’ve […]
Camping it up.
I could start this post by saying we are confirmed campers. When I think about it though, I haven’t actually had a proper tent holiday since before I was pregnant with Freddie. I can’t even pinpoint it now. Maybe the Summer before but I think not, so probably even the summer before that. If it […]
It's not much but it's home.
One of the things I had intended to do this year was make our home more… well… homely. When we first moved here we were all of a dither with big stuff that had been going on. The move was a rush job anyway, one that certainly took the then 18 month old Josie by […]
Silent Sunday
Defying Gravity
This is the name of the song which has been sung around here so much recently that eventually I sent an email to the girls theatre teacher informing them that she was likely to get custody of them quite soon 😆 This week they were at a workshop, rehearsing a short version of the show […]
