Happy Halloweeeeeen!!!

It's little madam's first ever halloween! We will be carving her first pumpkin later :) She also made a wand at nursery earlier in the week. Unfortunately we never got to bring it home because she has been off for the rest of the week as she was in so much pain with her teeth.

I had my opticians appointment today and I am FINALLY getting new glasses in a weeks time, they are very snazzy! totally different to the ones I am wearing at the moment.

I am in the process of trying to hire a decorator to take care of the very tall hallway/stairway. The chip paper needs steaming off and then re-doing (without the chips!!) Hopefully they won't be too expensive!

Im hoping our neighbour won't be too loud tonight, they warned us at the beginning of the week that they are planning a halloween party for tonight. We were invited as wel but I don't think we will be making an appearance, I just want to chill out! Even though I have had all week off I feel like I have been on the go 24/7.

I'm really behind on my blog already!

********Sooty and Mischief would have been 10 year old yesterday - RIP Babies :-( ********

Today I have been tearing down that godforsaken wall paper that was up in the lounge, it looked AWFUL and now... well now it look silly because not all of the paper has come off, will need to be steamed. The other half just wants to rip all the tongue and groove down and be done with it! I don't know what is underneath it so i'm a bit weary.

You should have seen me trying to put the washing on the line this morning! It was so windy that it kept slapping me in the face!! To top that as soon as I finished putting everything on the line it started tipping it down with ran! NOT AMUSED!!!

We have the kids here at the moment and as predicted we were asked if the kids could have their surname changed! lol ummm, the word NO springs to mind?!?!?!? It's a bit of a cheek to think that just because you are married you are suddenly 'daddy' without the donation of any sperm. Some people are just so greedy and selfish. The other half has stayed calmer than expected, I suppose it helped that we had already had this discussion a long time ago.

The kids keep asking when we are getting married, but i can safely say after seeing the outcome of a bodged job, I think we will be waiting until we actually have the money behind us. The fact of the matter is, yes me and the other half are very happy together and would love to be married in an instant but if we're going to do it, we're only going to do it the once and that one time better be pretty damn spectacular because i'm not settling for wedding pictures of us sat in some lonely pub after a trip to the registry office!!
I want the full works! hey, we can dream...!

My little girl is so clever, she can show me where her head is now when I ask :-) We can nearly do nose, she knows what I mean but can't quite tap her nose with her fingers just yet. Give us time and we will master the said task!

oh happy days :-) x

OMG and one more mention that got missed on the blog...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my youngest sister Miss K!!! 15 today :D enjoy the limo ride to Plymouth, hope dad doesnt fall asleep during the ballet haha :P x

We've moved house!!

Wahoo! we've moved and have so much more room. I wouldn't exactly say we are settled as yet, the house still looks like a building site, what with all the DIY going on! My boss has given me my new bible - the Ikea catalogue!! I get paid next week so think I might be putting in an order!!

I just want to say a huge THANK YOU to everyone who helped move our things and help with all the transportation. Much appreciated!!

Onwards...

Well I have spent the last week getting up at 5.30am every morning so I get to work on time! This is my new lifestyle, up at silly o clock each morning! at least I have a valid excuse for a sleep in on my days off!

Little madam is doing fine, her second tooth is on its way out so a part from the odd grumble she is growing, laughing and playing her little heart out :D

We have the girls for the weekend starting tomorrow. They were bridesmaids last week so i'm sure they will be high as kites!!

As for the news of the day: Mitchel caught his first mouse!!!!! (well technically it was a vowl - or however you spell it!) I'm SOOO proud :D
