A Walk at Penlee

Yesterday had a walk through the wood, found some special sticks and stomped through the leaves. Noah thought he was Kung Fu Panda.

I'm going to Australia

Ruby: (puts on coat) Bye Mummy I'm going

Me: OK - where are you going?

Ruby:To Australia. I'm going to open the door.

Me: No-just pretend

Tantrum ensues

Noah's pizza

One of Noah's favourite culinary activities is making pizza. Not surprising really as his Dad must be a world authority on Quattro Formaggi. Thanks to the pizza stone (an inspired wedding gift - thanks Fin and Abby) the Richards Trattoria was open for business again today - yum.

Junk food baubles

Will picked up a set of these for the tree in Homebase - includes slice of pizza, popcorn and fries!

Remember this?

Vintage Fisher Price dolls house bought today in Animal Welfare shop in Porthcawl. It's been well loved but can definitely stand another battering. Already a hit with Ruby and only £2.

Origami paper

Lovely papers arrived a couple of days ago - where to start?

Nailsworth

Went to see C & H today, had a lovely lunch and a swim. Great to see you three (soon to be four)..

Late halloween

Just found this photo on my phone of when I took the kids to Millie's MAdhouse in OCtober - Ruby's face says it all: get me outta here

Noah

daytime: lunatic

nighttime: angelic

Felt face

Yesterday I had an urge to make some felt animals - he's a bit scruffy but I think it turned out OK. Next request from Noah - a lion.

Sofa treasure

I cleaned the sofa today.

Mini happy cakes

Encourage good behaviour by bribing them with cupcakes.

As long as you've got your elf

School play tomorrow - hope the cheeky elf behaves himself.

Christmas lights

Yesterday we went to the switching on of the Xmas lights in Porthcawl. Ruby and Noah had a ride in a teacup. Ruth Jones switched on the lights ("Porthcawl - what's occuring?") - all 3 of them!
