1. I had a great weekend. Paul came to visit for the weekend and it was lovely to have a bit of a laugh and a long overdue catch up. It was also amusing to see just how instantly Tori had him wrapped around her little finger – and Arthur wasn’t far behind, he has…… Continue reading Reasons To Be Cheerful 1, 2, 3…

He’s growing fast and now he has started his efforts to follow his big sister round. Chaos is on it’s way… 2. Tori found her feet on a…… Continue reading Reasons To Be Cheerful 1, 2, 3…
1. JC Camp was good fun Nothing quite beats a bit of fresh air and some good friends around you. Our ‘When The Lions Roar!’ Camp was just that and Tori has only just stopped asking to put her welly-boots on and go outside to see Kim Woofwoof every morning so I get the impression…… Continue reading Reasons To Be Cheerful 1, 2, 3…

I feel like I’ve run a marathon when actually I have done very little aside from comfort a grumpy baby and entertain a toddler… Michelle suggested spreading the word about a…… Continue reading Reasons To Be Cheerful 1, 2, 3…

We had good fun spending time as a family and enjoying the ‘posh country hotel’ experience and dressing up for a change. Even Sy scrubbed up smart! 😉 2. We had…… Continue reading Reasons To Be Cheerful 1, 2, 3…

1. Arthur’s hips are just fine. I won’t lie, I was a bit worried when the doctor referred Arthur to the hospital after his 6 week check up because his right hip was ‘a bit clicky.’ I know hips can be fixed and all that but it doesn’t stop you worrying, especially when you have…… Continue reading Reasons To Be Cheerful 1, 2, 3…
