Yesterday we went for a drive with the boys to Mellifont Abbey and to a go kart track in Collon.
Unfortunately my eldest has a little bit of growing still to do before he's tall enough drive a kart......maybe by Christmas.
Drinks for the drive, everyone has their favourite :)
I snapped this picture of my boys this evening when they were lying on my bed watching tv, before they went to bed. They love each other, and I hope this is always the case :)
On Thursday I realised quite by accident that my phone takes screen shots.... I have absolutely positively NO idea how to do it. It appears I can do it quite by fluke!!
For example....
On Wednesday I discovered Instagram, I am undecided as to wherther that was a good thing. All my photos have been Instagrammed!
My eldest beauty with his new glasses and hair...and sporting a wonderful fake smile :)
Can't believe that after only 13 weeks of sewing I've accumulated this amount of material... Hickeys and IKEA have a lot to answer for!!
Not up to thinking of a pic to take today. Instead I just took pictures of more bags I've made!
Had a fantastic day with the crafty queens in Barberstown castle. I had completed the patchwork bag I was making for my friends baby shower. On the way back I had to stop off at IKEA just to look at the fabric :)
After spending yesterday with them, my youngest was all packed and ready to go back to his aunty carla and uncle keith's today. This sight greeted me at the bottom of the stairs when I got up this morning!!
Today we went to Belfast to the new Titanic museum and to W5. This was a special day for my eldest for his birthday.
He enjoyed the Titanic museum but loved W5, must go back over the summer.
I can't quite fully grasp that this guy is now seven, it doesn't seem that long since I had him.
He's a child of simple tastes, plain fairy cakes in the shape of 7 and he's delighted. (he doesn't like chocolate or most cakes!)
God I LOVE this kid :)
How remiss of me for not posting in several days. In fact looking through the photos there was even a day that I didn't take any photo....note to self, don't let that happen again. (not that I believe anyone else reads this thing only me!!)
So, here are the last 4 days (in 6 pics!)
My eldest posing with and without his new glasses, my youngest sitting on a scooter in the window of the toy shop, a new bag I'm working on (lots of patchwork). The fifth picture is of the swimming pool my eldest has his lessons in every Wednesday, this was taken because today he moved to the deep end and he is one chuffed little (big) man :)
Oh the excitement, I was harassed into phoning the opticians to check if they were in. With only half a day wearing them he is a model child, leaves them in except for the constant cleaning of them!
So attached is obviously a pic of said child in said glasses... with stupid fake smile, and just moments before a hair cut..........
Drum roll please.......
How is it that children's feet grow so quickly, and at the same time?
They both needed new shoes the same week!!!
We had another fun day, it was filled with chocolate, chocolate and more chocolate!!!
An easter egg hunt, dress up and chocolate.... what more could you want????
Realised that I'm one photo down from Thursday. So, the last photo from a wonderful day. Bad bad quality but hey who cares!
A very late night for my boys, but you need to stay up late to toast marshmallows :)
A picnic in the Dublin mountains, stop off in Dundrum shopping centre for ice cream and a chance for me to peruse the Cath Kidston shop.
On the way home with exhausted but happy kids, who are now looking forward to a Chinese.
I LOVE family days :)
This week my eldest is on his easter hols. I have to wake them at 6.30 this week and it's hard to do because they're snoring their heads off..... But they're still smiling :)
