Happy Hallowe'en!

Elsie's First Hallowe'en!

Matilda the witch...prehaps the tiredist Witch of all time? and Elsie her black cat prehaps the cutest cat of all time?

WOOOOOOHOOOOO HAHAHA!


Tilly and Keira Running down the alley way! through the scarey Tree Tunnel! On our way to Jacob and Poppy's party!

We think there are bats in the tree!

Tils and Keira holding hands in the dark!
Jess and Poppy with a very tired Tilly!
Tilly very tired when the children all went Trick or Treating!

Tilly and Kiera stop at a house (where Daddy was working!) and Daddy was waiting with bandages round his head and a torch and started making funny noises and Tilly said 'Hello Daddy!He thought she would not know who it was! But he did have Sweeties for them so she didn't mind being scared!

And the tiredist witch ever award goes to...Matilda Ruby Williams! She had spent so long running around in her outift today, by the time it came to going to Jacob and Poppy's party, She was shattered and spent most of the night with her fingers in her mouth!


Witchy Tils and Her friend Witchy Keira getting ready to go to Jacob and Poppy's party!

We had a really fun evening and Tilly was shattered after her first day at school yesteday and all the excitment of Jacob and Poppy's party tonight, she has a huge bag of sweeties from Jacob's Grandad, Aydan's Nanny and Jess's neighbours, so we are going to sort them out and have one each day during the week! Tilly is back at school tomorrow afternoon and we have Tumble tots in the morning so she is tucked up nicely in bed ready for a big day ahead!

Happy Hallowe'en!

Hope you get more Treats than Tricks!!!

Tilly's first day at preschool!

Well firstly sorry to everyone who has been waiting for me to update the blog, I did not have the internet for 2 weeks so there is alot to catch up on!

Elsie has been busy growing - most people would not recognise her!, She is sooooo different to Matilda, although she was tiny when she was born she really has grown so much ( I think it is mainly down to the fact she is now bottle fed due to her reflux!) she is gorgeous but still quite demanding in that she does not sleep through the night yet and Tilly slept through within a few weeks! Matilda is really confident with her talking now, last week she said 'my sister Elsie is beautiful Mummy!' and when she had built a castle with bricks she said ' my castle fantastic Mummy!' she giggles so much and also has a great sense of humour!

Tilly leaving for her first day at Little Oaks Preschool!

Matilda woke up at 4.30 am this morning as she was sooooooooooooo excited about her big news! SHE HAD HER FIRST DAY AT PRESCHOOL TODAY! she has been waiting patiently and Today was the day, she had a ball! When we arrived she had to take her coat and bag to her peg which had a picture of a cat next to her name, she then had to match the cat to her laminated name badge and take it off of the wall and post it into a box to say she had arrived, she loved doing that! Mummy then went off and Tilly was on her own...not a tear in sight! she was so excited! she then played with Play-doh and then drawing and painting and finally made a hallowe'en cake (chocolate and rice crispies with red liquorice) which Tils called her wibbly wobbley wormy cake! All in all a very good day, Tilly does not go back to school until Thursday, she really cant wait! She is shattered tonight and could not wait to get to bed!



Tils just before her first day at Little Oaks - She filled her school bag herself!!!


Daddy has come back from his Ta training and we missed him alot! Mummy has been busy doing her 'snip snip' as Tilly calls hairdressing and organising the christening!

On Sunday Matilda went to 'work' with Daddy! They had to go price up a job and then buy some sand and then we all went to The Dhan Sheri Bangladeshi restaurant to celebrate Katie and Alice's Daddy's birthday, we had a fab meal and then all went back to their house for drinks and board games!

We went over to Granny and Pop's house this week and The girls had a very big suprise! They each have their own half scale limited edition Bugatti racing Cars that Pops has had made for them, they have go kart engines and run on petrol, they go up to 30 miles and hour!

Tils in her new Car...just going to go off to get some shopping Mummy!

The girls wont get to use them for a while, but they have already been challenged to races with Pop's friend who has brought them for his Grandchildren too! Matilda's is black and Elsie's is Blue (the same colour as Pop's Full size one).
Pop's pretending to be stuck in Elsie's Car! -There is not enough room in the garage so he has to keep it in his Study!

This weekend Grandma and Grandad are coming up to see us, we have missed them so much, especially since we did not speak to Grandma whilst she was in Canada last week.


We are going to a Hallowe'en party tomorrow night at Jacob and Poppy's house so we have got our costumes ready tonight!

Thank you to everyone who has RSVPed for the Christening we can not wait to see you all there!

LOVE LOVE LOVE XXX

Mummy is slacking!!!

Happy Birthday Uncle Charlie xxx
Gosh where do I start? Mummy is really slacking at this and really needs to get on top of her posts....she keeps being told off by people!!!
Everything is great here, Daddy has been away for a week with The territorial Army we have heard from him a lot last week but he has been on excercise since friday so we have not been able to chat to him for a couple of days and we really miss him! we have a whole week left until we see him! And we cant wait!
Cala came up to visit us this weekend and we were thrilled to see her, we went up to Bicester Village yesterday and we chose a Birthday Gift for Uncle Charlie and prepared ourselves by getting Daddy a birthday gift too! we had a lovely Lunch at Carluccio's and then came home and went for a walk in Brackley with the girls asleep in the buggies! Today we walked down to Bumble bees and have been very tired so both Elsie and Matilda had a early night.
We have been keeping oursleves very busy this week and have done things everyday - the weather has helped as it is very mild and suprisingly quite dry so we have been to the park and walking everywhere, we also went blackberry picking and picked some Apples too for a crumble, Mummy has had alot of work on and most of her clients have children so whilst Mummy 'cut and tinted' Tils entertained the guests! Elsie has got really big and is very smiley, she is alot more content now she is on formula milk, but she is still very sicky! Hopefully we will have some photos to put up soon xxx

Monster milkshake!

Today Great Auntie Tina, Peter and James came to visit and meet Baby Elsie and we went to get a monster milkshake in town which was a real treat...Of course Matilda had a chocolate one and James managed two!
Baby Elsie is growing well and is holding her head and looking around the room she will be 8 weeks old on thursday and the time seems to have whizzed by!
Tilly has been playing with her play doh alot lately and yesterday we baked some cakes and Macy came around to play.
Tomorrow we hope to get Elsie weighed and go and pick some blackberries at Granny's house if the weather is good!
I tried to upload these pictures last week but it would not work...better late than never!
