Halloween!

Well I say this is the title but to be fair we've done nothing to celebrate Halloween other than give a few sweets away to the local needy and noisy kids!
Well its all doom and gloom with the nights drawing in and cold weather on the way, time to get my hat out methinks. Although the silly puppy dog is still happy to plunge into the chilly river and have a good swim!
Now trying to get a toddler to wear a hat, well is impossible. She almost got the hint when dressing her doll who quite happily sat there and got a hat on, but no babyboo just doesn't do hats. I have a cunning plan to stop her losing the gloves though - good old elastic. Have to find the sewing kit out though first!
Have a very sorry puppy dog tonight, she cut her paw on her walk and now is looking ever so sad with her little bandage on!
Oh well a rather uneventful Halloween, time for some fireworks methinks!

So now very much have a toddler toddling about all over the place but thank god she is finally sleeping through the night! woohoo, makes such a difference!
So we've had a lovely but exhausting weekend. Went to the farm at Chatsworth yesterday as very excited that she's started saying words like cat, dog, moo, sheep (well I really hope its sheep!). I don't think I'm ever going to be a super mum but I can't believe what some 'chavtastic' mums let their offspring get up to. So there's kids chasing after poor chickens and prodding little lambs in the face and no one to stop them - oh my word they should be ashamed! I really can't get over how some people can't be bothered with their kids, its crazy. rant over!
So then today we went swimming, oh the fun, although the giant connect 4 on the side of the pool was the babies fave thing! Oh and took the dog for a big old swim although then the baby wanted to go in the water! Such is life..............................
