Late to the party as usual, I didn’t even get a chance to link up this week as it was too hectic in half term week.
38 – Holiday Booked! We had promised the children when we went to Disneyland Paris for my 30th birthday that we would return for my 40th, so today we actually booked it, cue some very excited children (with the help of Barnaby Bear)
39 – Viggo helping me work! Asa was away this week at two different conferences, meaning I had to split my working days, Viggo was very keen to assist, but it took me twice as long, so I gave up!
40 – Mayan Headdress Here is Kaide modelling his creation, you can see he looks thrilled, he was actually off school with a sore throat hence the glum look.
41 – Red Arrows ready for Take Off OK so today I cheated slightly as nothing interesting happened at home and Asa sent this photo of his ‘work’ day!
42 – Chocolate Milk With A Straw Today Viggo discovered blowing through a straw..
43 – Snuggly Blanket and Hot Tea Tyrus was not feeling 100% today and when he is having a full blown meltdown, (I think this one was because I had locked the house backdoor and taken out the key!) the only thing that calms him down is his snuggly blanket and a bottle of ‘Hot Tea Tyrus’ and as much as I hate the fact that it is in a bottle, when he is inconsolable I will do anything!
44 – Photography Coursework Lochlan had to go to the beach and take photographs for his gcse, however he somehow managed to persuade dad to have a couple of goes on the numerous arcade machines along the golden mile.
45 – Too tired to Move It was quite late and I told Kaide it was bedtime, I walked into the dining room to find Kaide with his head on the desk saying he was too tired to move.
46 – The Boys discovered Static Its amazing what amuses the children, the four smallest spent an hour rubbing balloons on each others heads.
47 – First Time at The Dentist I know dreadful mum taking them to the dentist in half term, but its the only time I get them all together, Viggo was great and climbed into the chair quicker than Tyrus who isn’t so keen!
48 – Final University Interview Xene had her final interview today, which left me with an hour by myself, stuck in a uni campus, with a choice of a bench outdoors checking emails and looking for things to photograph or the uni bar, I didn’t think I could quite pull of the 20 year old look, so freezing outside on a bench won!
49 – How To Train A Dragon We were invited along to Norwich Castle to see their new exhibition based on How To Train A Dragon, which has a number of props and activities with a strong emphasis on literacy, as well as the Vikings and dragons.
50 – Best Views For Meetings Asa and I had a business meeting at a local holiday park, couldn’t resist a pic whilst we were there.
51 – All About Chewbacca Over the last few weeks, Viggo has embraced his inner Star Wars and is right in there playing with the other children, both with figures and on Disney Infinity, his favourite this week is Chewbacca.
I always say I’m going to take part in this challenge and I never do! Slaps wrist!
Discovering what happens when you blow through a straw must be a great moment for a child 🙂
Wow it looks like you guys have been busy and had great fun too!
What some awesome snaps – a lovely way to keep track of the little (and big) moments that happen each day 🙂 x
aw some lovely pictures and what a great way of keeping a diary all 6 of mine went to the dentist during the holidays too
So exciting that you’ve booked to go back to Disneyland Paris! Such a great idea to track each day x
Ooh I bet you can’t wait to go to Disneyland Paris it has always been a dream of mine to tick off the bucket list. Lovely snaps x
What a super busy time you’ve had, but how awesome you get to look forward to a trip to Paris! 🙂
Lovely pictures. This looks like q fun challenge to take part in.
Oh how I remember when I learnt to blow bubbles through a straw..drinking was never the same again 😉
That’s a pretty good view from a meeting. I wish that was the view from my office!
Some lovely pictures of your week. It really showed how varied it can be with a family and the blowing bubbles took me back to when our children were that young!
Aw, I miss half terms. Looks like you had a fun one! xo
Love this post. And as for the meeting at a holiday park wouldn’t that be an inspiring view to work with every day
Ok I can’t lie, I am very jealous you are going to Disneyland! We are dying to take our son. I love the idea of a picture diary!
Oh wow, I do hope you have an amazing time in Disneyland, I think I too would be excited x
