1) We have a beautiful new kitten, we've named her Lotti. I wasn't intending on getting a getting (yet), but this one really needed a home, she is poorly with cat flu & had an eye infection which is clearning up now, the eye drops work amazing! She needed some looking after, so we took her in! Apparently I feel the need for...

Gosh. I am having on of *those* days today. My hot water wasn't working this morning, apparently it's fixed now. And I do have running water again. However, I am not convinced the hot water is actually fixed. My heating is now turning itself on & off. The lumber will have to come back in the week and get it all fixed, he...

Woohoo it's finally Friday! I feel absolutely exhausted today! See, I decided that I needed to *ME* time (watching random stuff on youtube, listening to 'keep calm and relax' album etc) so I stayed up late last night thinking "oh it's ok I can nap tomorrow". Only problem with that was I forgot that the plumber/heating engineer was coming to fix the boiler and flush...

1) The kids are all doing so well at school! Next week is Charlies sports day, Harrys sports day & Ellies parents "evening" although my appointment is after lunch because it's just easier all 'round.

I can not believe that in just over two and half weeks my little boy is going to be SEVEN. My middle child is going to be SEVEN. Doesn't seem possible. I'm kind of stuck as to what to get Charlie. He has lego, cars, scooters, roller skates, a tent, cars & trucks, trains, aeroplanes, nerf guns, water pistols... this list is endless. I know...

*Yawn* I am so very tired. I think I've had about 5 hours sleep in the last 72 hours. Friday night I didn't go to sleep until late watching random youtube videos (I haven;t done that for ages!) thinking that I would at least get a 7:30am lay in... how wrong I was, the kids were up at 5:45am yesterday morning. Last night...

I looked online and read about what...

In no particular order. ♥ All lounged around in front of the T.V watching family movies. ♥ Hearing the kids giggle. ♥ The kids randomness & how they make me chuckle with some of the things they say (Example: Charlie points to an aeroplane in the sky that' left a trail of "smoke" behind it "Look mummy it's a rocket" ME: "Oh hmm. What makes you think it's a...
