Sam's 3rd Dino Birthday Party!

Today was Sam's Dino Party! We had the best time!It was beautiful weather and we spent the day in the garden, Fiona had made the party amazing with everything Dinosaur themed and lovely games, the children went on an egg hunt and then had to 'hatch' the plaster eggs with hammers. The children also did dinosaur dances and ate Dinosaur shaped sandwiches and monster munch!
Once Sam's other friends had gone home we got the sprinkler out and played in the water.

Go Go Lazy Town....

Today Mummy and Matilda went to see Stephanie, Sportacus, Pixel, Stingey and friends in Lazy Town live a pirate adventure, we had the best time and some rare time alone as we usually have Wiglet as well (Wig was lucky to have a sleep over at Grandma's!)
We went a choose some delicious treats to take with us, and when we arrived at the theatre Matilda chose a fluffy wand and bunny ear combo that she bought with the spending money from Grandad. She loved the Show and we were able to move right up to the front of the balcony so we had a great view. After Lots of dancing and singing along we went to shakeaway for a milkshake, we then went to uncle Charlie's for a flying visit. Finally we came home and finished off our sewing, we made a skirt and head band combo , Then Grandad picked us up so we could go and collect Wig and Grandma from town and collapse the buggy...Grandma had forgotten how to do it!

Tils starts big school!

Since Our lost post a lot has happened Mummy, Tils, and Elsies have moved to Brighton and we are now living in Rottingdean.
Today seems like a good time to start reposting as Matilda had her first day at big school! She started Our Lady of Lourdes in Rottingdean today and went in from 9am - 12, she had a fanastic time and enjoyed meeting her new class mates. Daddy came and stayed with us so that he was able to take Tils in for her first morning. We all walked in together, Mummy and Daddy went into to the class to say our goodbyes and as always Matilda was very happy to be left and merrily went on her way to mix with her new friends! Mummy and Daddy Were very emotional and finally composed ourselves in the car only for us to recieve an email form Auntie Dawn with a pic of Mia ready for her first day at senior school, that started us off again! Tils went for a tour of the school and was most impressed with the library, she is soooo excited about going back in on monday, she wishes she could go in tomorrow.

Matilda is 4... woop woop!

Matilda decided she absolutely completely must have to have a crab cake (Sebastian birthday cake to go with her under the sea themed Party)...Mummy was up until stupid o'clock the night before baking it and icing it to make it as believable as possible..... only for the Wiginator to jump in and eat the claws 2 hours before Matilda's party! ..... = A very sad Mummy and Tilly :(

The claws were reformed with A Tesco Swiss roll, lots of icing and more Orange food colouring.

Ho Ho Ho and away we go! <3

Today we went to see the big guy himself!
We went over to Milton Keynes with Granny to see Father Christmas, It was so much fun - Mummy is some what of an expert when it comes to the Big FC and she thought he rocked! He was amazing and had a real beard and low voice, I am convinced it was a double bluff....That he was the real one pretending to be a fake!


Tilly and Elsie both got a lovely gift from Santa - they were actually quite good ones! Tils got a scooby doo tin with magnets, and colouring stuff and Elsie got a cool rag doll.
One of Father Christmas' Elves kindly took a photo of us all!

Tils had a chat with Santa, He reminded her to leave a carrot out for rudolph.

We went a on the christmas train and looked at the festive display - it had reindeer, elves, snow and rabbits it was lovely.
Tils having a cuddle with Santa, Elsie was not too impressed when we were in Santa's grotto and just wanted to be cuddled by Mummy and Granny but she loved her doll.

Christmas Tree at Daddy's

Today Daddy bought a Christmas tree for us, We had lots of fun decorating it with the new decorations we bought this morning, Elsie was loving all the little bits and bobs and took them off about 100 times faster than we could put them on!
Elsie keeps pulling her skirt and top up to show her tummy - she thinks it is really funny!
Tils loved going throught the box of decorations, and thought the Pink beads were fab, she wore them as a necklace for about half an hour!
The tree half decorated! More photos of the finished artical to follow!

Merry 'almost' Christmas From Matilda and Elsie

It suddenly feels like Christmas! It has popped up on us again. Mummy is so unprepared, I have only just started shopping!
Mummy has been busy packing and getting everything ready for our big move and the girls have been busy socialising and doing toddler things...Elsie is a fully fledeged walker now and is also incredibly stubborn - not like anyone I know! So she wants to walk everywhere...even though she has another new buggy which I would rather she sat in and looked beautiful!....What will I do when she out grows a buggy, I can't bare to think about it!
Tils is loving calender time in the morning, she loves finding the numbers on the calenders but adores the treats inside, we had to doctor Elsies to remove anything that would set off her allergies, but she is more than happy with some raisens and a banana chip!
The last few days have been quite borng as Mummy has been packing and sorting stuff out, It will probably be the same for another few days too! We do need to make our cards though and have some other crafty things planned.
and some Big news....We hope to visit Santa in the next few days!
