Tut Tut

No posts for over a week again!

Been an odd week. Was full of good things but I didnt have the energy to take them in as I have been exhausted for most of it!

Lucy went to Dell Farm on a school residential trip - so I spent a lot of time and money getting together all the bits she needed. She skipped off quite happily on Monday and on Thursday I had a postcard to tell me she had made friends with a Turkey!!!

She came back yesterday(Friday) safe and sound and said she had missed me. Euan was desparate to see her Thursday but by Friday was playing it very cool!

I have spent most of the week feeling miserable - and being totally worn out - I think I need a week at home and someone to do the school runs for me - any takers?

On a positive note we found schools and got places for both Lucy and Euan in Hemel, Jake had a week at M&S which he seemed to really enjoy and this weekend Olivia is over. I am stuck in work at the moment but about to leave to recover Jake's Duvet from my washing machine and head back to my Hemel Home for he weekend!

I also ordered a 3G Iphone but no idea if I will get it - yet - I would say SHHHHH don't tell Phil - but A) I already told him and B) he reads this so if he didnt know he would now!

Thank Goodness

The trauma that was going on next last is about to come to an end. I won't go into detail but it was enough to make me doubt anything anymore. When you are questioned about anything to do with your children whom you love to pieces well it makes you feel very sad and upset.

Been a lovely week other than that - although we are all extremely tired. Jake and Phil came up Tuesday to see us, and Lucy, Phil and Jake played Game of Life.



Jake won - he always seems to and I think it is because Phil was talking to me and Lucy was messing and Jake was playing with the spinner a bit longer than he should have been on quite a few turns LOL, never mind - they all enjoyed it!

Last night Phil went to Quiz night and we watched the Footie. Got bored half way through though as they won 6-0 in the end! and Jake took over the remote. Lucy was up half way through the night and Euan woke up in a bad mood too. We were supposed to have Lucy's Cousin on a sleep over tonight but Lucy didnt feel well this morning when I sent her into school. Hope she is okay - I did give her Calpol but if I wasnt needed at work would have kept her off!!

Other than that we have a good weekend ahead planned. Friday Phil will be out till 7 or 8 and then Saturday we have a house viewing and then Alex's - which the kids just love!! Sunday back to the gardening! ARGH :)

Things to cheer us up

Been a hard weekend after a bad week - so I figured we needed reminding of how happy we are!! No words needed, we are one happy family!!!!

However, pictures as evidence below!

Little Pickle

After the horrid week I have had this week I arranged with my ex to pick up Euan from Nursery so I could see him for a bit. I wanted to see Lucy too and was happy because when Jamie came to pick up Euan from me she was with him too - still proudly showing off her new hair.

I always get to nursery and the other children shout at Euan "Euan your mummy's here" he always is engrossed in something or other and tonight he was playing hop skotch. But when he saw me he looked up and shouted "mummy" and ran over, we had our big cuddle and I felt much better.

I took him home and he sat on the side of the kitchen and played with a McDonalds toy that Lucy had forgotten to open. Then we sat in the hall way - one at each end and drove his roary and tin top cars up and down the carpet. He had a great time and I enjoyed being with him on my own for an hour - he never gets "me" time and I needed it this week.

Jamie and I had a chat about the problem while the kids ran about getting 100 things to take to their dads! and I shall try and not worry about it anymore. I just love them to bits and it as been a tough week.

Rushed home to see Terminator Salvation - reviews weren't great but I loved it and I think both Phil and Jake enjoyed it. Had to endure a 20 minute whittery phone call to Phil with a list of instructions and that just drives me mad!! But it is a new day today so although it is raining I shall try and enjoy it.

Bonus pic of Terminator Salvation actors - wish it had been a different end to the film but it was fab!

Lucy's New Haircut

I had to upload the image from my phone to get it up here - but it always comes out landscape!! LOL

Lucy had her hair cut yesterday - and here it is!! Great isnt it - she loves it and it is just what I wanted her to have!!

She was making food for her Littlest Pet Shops at the time - hence the playdoh on the table :)

Sunny Sports Day....................

Lucy had her Fun Day at the school today. She was in the Normans team along with her Cousin and I didnt get there for the begining but only missed 2 events of the 5!

She loves doing these sorts of things - she jumps up and down enthusiastically and really enjoys herself!! I took a few pictures - they were not wonderful but the picture of Lucy on her own is the best one because she is having her hair cut today so this will serve as a before picture and I shall post an after one tomorrow.

Things may be moving with the house problem too as we may be able to keep Phil's house and get a house as well. So things were looking up till a horrid meeting in the afternoon. I am not going to go into detail as it was not nice but I am glad it is over finally!



Tag me!!!

Been a while

since I blogged!

Had another wonderful weekend - went to Clacton and Jake came along with us. We sat on the beach and the kids played in the sand. We went on the pier and Euan plowed into all the passers by he could with his scooter!!

Some piccies.









Had some awful news to contend with today about one of the kids - something totally blown out of all proportion - have to meet with someone tomorrow to sort it out but was very unhappy about it!!
