Husband started three weeks leave this week. Itwas lovely for us to have him around but hes realising three under 5 is hard work and is ready to get back to work already haha 🙂
Monday – Poppy went to School as usual, she doesn't break up until Friday! Husband and I took the other two girls Christmas shopping. Managed to get a few bits and pieces and lunch out before Rosie got fed up and started showing off.
Tuesday – Daisy and I went to Costa his morning with Jo. Shes off home tomorrow for a few weeks so it was great to catch up before she disappears. We then all went to the usual music group we go to. This afternoon we watched Poppy's Nativity play where she was a very pretty Angel.
Wednesday – took Rosie to get her hair cut today. She had quite a bit off to try and tidy it up a bit. She was very good.
Thursday – the last Tumble Tots session this term and they were all set up for Christmas. It was lovely. Check out little Miss and her new bob.
Poppy had lovely day at school too. She saw a pantomime and a carol service. My glue gun arrived so I started making bows and loved it. Made all of these:
Friday – We all went to stay and play at Poppy's school. It finished early today as it was party time for them. Husband then took Rosie into town for a few hours. She enjoyed quality Daddy time and he got a few jobs done. I stayed home with Daisy who was very good. I managed to tidy up and then got started on making more bows and clips for my girls. Such fun!
This evening we went over to our neighbours house where we enjoyed homemade mince pies, gluewein and a bit of street party. It was lovely to see everyone out and the girls had fun too. Next we quickly got the girls sorted before I headed out to the movies with my lovely Dad. We went to see The Hobbit which was fab!
Saturday – we were supposed to be going to West Midland Safari park (I'm getting to review it) but sadly it was raining so hard we changed our minds, instead Nana came here for the day which was very nice. Husband took Poppy & Rosie swimming for a while (which they all enjoyed) whilst Nana and I enjoyed a relaxing few hours here with Daisy. It was lovely.
This evening got ready to go see family tomorrow. Clothes ironed and layed out, presents wrapped and cards written on.
Sunday – headed off to see Husbands side of the family and drop off presents. It was a lovely day and very Christmasey. We even dressed the girls in pretty party dresses. We managed to get round most of the family and then ended up at his Mums for a huge family Christmas dinner…perfect! The girls loved seeing all their cousins too. A really lovely day 🙂
We are really in the mood for Christmas now.
