Random Monday thoughts

I can't believe it's Monday already, this weekend has flown by! We haven't done much at all but Monday always seems to come too early don't you think! Anyway, i just thought I would treat you to some random thoughts.
About twenty minutes ago I send the kids up to brush their teeth, they somehow got distracted and started playing with their furbies.  About 10 minutes ago the kids left to go on a Minecraft course with dad. The furbies are still chattering away and one of them has a really evil laugh! I wonder if they will ever stop. If your child has a furby you will probably know how annoying they can get and how I must be feeling right now.
Did anyone watch the Bafta's last night? I really enjoyed it. Great movies, great stars and some great speeches. So pleased Frozen won best animated movie, that one is definitely a favourite in our house. Really want to watch American hustler and 12 years a slave now. We've seen Gravity and it really does deserve all the awards it got.
Yesterday my dad sent me an email with photo's from when I was little. I hadn't seen some of these in forever and they all brought back great memories, like this one for instance.

 Before blowing the candles on my cake I rushed to my room to change into my ballet outfit because I wanted to show my grandma my dance moves and ballet poses. The cake had to wait! I do love old photo's like that!
My kids have gone on a Minecraft course today, not sure what it is but I imagine it will be learning how to do some programming. I wonder how long before they get bored.
I haven't watered the house plants in over a week, better do that some time today!
The H&M kids catalogue came through the letterbox this weekend and oh boy do I want to order some stuff from it!! They have the most adorable dresses, tops and leggings.  I really need to update Emily's wardrobe, she has outgrown all her summer clothes and I definitely have my eyes on some of them! 
I need to go to work now, better hurry up or I'll be late!
Those two furbies are still making noise by the way.
Aaaaaand I'm back! I only worked for a couple of hours today which is nice since it's half term and the kids are home from school. The are not back yet from the Minecraft course, which means some peace and quiet for me. I can use it after having Emily home sick all of last week. Think I will boil the kettle and put my feet up in a minute. Heaven.
I'm eating left over apple strudel for lunch. Healthy, I know! I really need to go shopping as we are out of bread, hence the strudel.
I'm in this mood again where I want to completely change and update our home interior. It seems I get like  this every time the seasons change! I'd love new curtains, bedding, furniture, decorations, new paint on the walls and so on! I'm not the only one who gets like this right??
Anyway, the kettle has boiled so I'm off to have a cup of coffee. Have a great week everyone!

What summer does to me

Icecreammmmmm, I've been eating way too much of you this week! Why oh why do you have to be so good? Honestly peeps, you should have seen the plate (yes plate not bowl, it's bigger!) of ice cream I had earlier this week. Two giant scoops of vanilla and two giant scoops of chocolate topped with a flake and a slice of cake. Nothing for the faint hearted here! If I keep going like this I will burst out of my pants any day.  

  I know I know you are jealous right! Why wouldn't you be of my wicked sunburn / tan line. I love how it looks when I wear sleeveless tops. It just finishes off my outfit don't you think. hmmm. All I need now are sock tan lines. Groovy.  

  Playing tennis with the kiddies, barefoot while wearing Emily's sunhat. Who cares if it is way too small for me, it's the cutest little sunhat ever and we had fun

Summer also makes me do creepy poses over little people. Not sure what I am on about? Have a look at this next photo.  

  She was actually taking pictures of our shadows... that was until she got distracted by cow poop and decided to start taking pictures of that instead. Don't believe me. Look.  

  cow poop on my blog...proud moment here people! Proud moment. aaaaaaand moving on.  

Summer also makes me wrap parcels in the park.

This particular "parcel" requested to be wrapped up even more.

I wasn't too bothered about my parcel wrapping skills here

but someone who will be able to tell you all about them is

 Angela from The Harmon Baby Farm

She was the winner of my giveaway a few weeks back and  has written the

most adorable post about receiving her "Royal Mail".

Go and read it here and say hi to her while you are there will you.

Doesn't she rock those earrings!

OK and with that this icecream eating, tanlined, tiny sunhat wearing, creepy posing,

poop posting, parcel wrapping
