Muddles

Lots to smile about today despite John being in a grump again :) - went for a family walk with George - Ben had great fun jumping in muddy puddles or 'muddles' as he decided to call them!


He also liked his new (to him anyway) jumper so much he refused to wear a coat and it was quite mild - I promise - so I let him off.


Sophie enjoyed controlling George again - Tom didnt even want to try today. Ben and Sophie were fascinated by the cows especially when they seemed to speak back mooing loudly when they said 'hello'


Big SMILE cos Ben ate some lunch!! he didn't come to the table willingly - I gave up and Tom bribed him with a game of Scooby Doo haunted house - then tried to get out of the deal after lunch but Ben had remembered. He only really ate the sweet potato but did eat plenty of that so better than often.
Tom and Sophie 'helped' John continue painting the garden room - a task which seems to be taking on Forth Rail Bridge proportions - I quickly had to remove them because the stress levels were getting too high which wasn't fun for anyone :)


Managed to get Tom out of his PJ day by suggesting he play fetch with George in the garden - George had been having fun with me earlier and I must have worn him out because Tom could hardly persuade him to move!

Tom was fascinated by the snowdrops!!


Then claimed to be the first to have climbed to the top of Small Mountain and put his stick flag in - that had to be the cause of the biggest smile today - he is hilarious sometimes!! you had to be there :):)
