It's hard work choosing a new settee for the new room! Mummy couldn't resist a quick sit down on this giant memory foam style cream seat - we didn't buy it!

29th December
A bit late, however, Jessica and Mummy eventually made (well, only erected and decorated this year!) the Gingerbread House! Please ignore the mess in the background - caused by upheaval of the building works.

18th December
It was Christmas party time at the Golf Club today so Christmas jumpers all round and another Santa. He was too busy this time to pose for photographs so we didn't get any dramatics from the children. Daddy did catch this photograph during snack time while Mummy had a sneaky afternoon wine!
Plus a sneaky extra photograph as we love this one of Jessica giggling at the magician/balloon man!
16th December
Maisie insisted on cuddling every pole on the way back to the the car at Morrisons, and there were lots!

Maisie on the same slide which Jessica now refuses to go on after she hurt her finger. Maisie went on it 4 times this morning (Mummy refused each time as it's an almost vertical drop!).
14th December
Jessica had her school Christmas party this afternoon so we all walked to collect her (in an attempt to allow her to burn off some of the sugar consumed!). On the way home, Daddy couldn't resist a quick peek at the mist on the golf course!

Another visit to see Santa and Oliver loved it! Jessica again refused a photograph and Maisie screamed!

We all visited Santa at the Sage today. Jessica had a great time but refused a photograph with him. Maisie and Oliver seemed a bit confused by the whole thing but enjoyed it!

It was Jessica's 'Wriggly Nativity' today. She was an angel and also carried the star leading the three Kings to Bethlehem. She was brilliant!

We sorted out baby clothes today and this was the outcome! 7 bags of clothes for the charity shop!
24th November
Nights out used to involve as few 'warm' clothes as possible. Today's night outfit included hat, big coat and gloves! How times have changed!
