we've been away for the weekend to see family and had a lovely time. Got home about 9pm last night then called at the inlaws for an hour to show them the photos & video we'd taken, need to unpack today. Came back with loads of baby stuff including a changing table
I woke up pretty early today so nipped out for milk and now I've got my feet up. We have the week off which will be a combination of relaxation and holiday type days

DD3 had a very exciting day yesterday. Her brownies pack had won a gardening competition and their designed set is at Hampton Court flower show. Some of them were invited to the press day yesterday and they all met Sophie Wessex. DD absolutely shattered this morning, but has still gone to school as she's desperate to share her news :rotfl:I need direction to perfection...0 -
