Another busy one. First off to bird group for outdoor bird spotting, indoor play and making paper plate ponds Alfie was thrilled that we sang 5 little speckled frogs as he knows the words off by heart so could belt it out at top volume In fact we were singing it in the car on the way there to (successfully) try and cheer up a grumpy, wailing Holly (teeth again!) H cheered up at bird group as she loves it there, although she was a bit miffed that Archie wouldn’t hold her hand on the walk lol! She just doesn’t give up!  It was lovely to catch up with Harriet too.

Afterwards we met Tracey and Sam for some lunch in the Bishop Vesey. It was lovely to see them both. Straight home then to rush round madly sorting dishwasher, washing etc and the Waitrose online shopping order that arrived. Alfie wanted to do more crafts so we made some cards that are needed over the next month. Barring two disasters with tiny silver balls (I’ll be finding them for months!) we ended up with two lovely sparkly, jewel adorned cards I was amazed that (with no prompting whatsoever) H decided to stick 2 googly eyes on the eyes on the card. She loves crafts and has a lot of patience to sit and stick for ages -  longer than Alfie, who tends to wander off after a bit.

Alfie spent some time practising his scissor skills with some old newspaper destined for the recycling bin.

Whilst H helped with dinner. This is her buttering Daddy’s roll
