    What a gorgeous day, a dog walk with the baby and the grandchildren. I am so glad that I am able to help DD out. My little DGS was awake for a while today and gave me that quizzical look that newborns do saying well who are you ? He seems a very placid baby at the minute but time will tell. My DGD invited herself to stay overnight so I have company 😍. 
    My parents have been out in their garden today which is great for them. 
    Have a good evening everyone .

    The children are sleeping through any noise which is good . However this morning about 7am DGD got up and went to tell her mum that the baby was awake and could she feed him to make him quiet. My DD hadn't heard him and he was in a Moses basket next to her, but DGD had heard him.  .

    This morning we have made a cake , which frankly looks more like a pancake 😂. Cake making is not my strong point but DGD enjoyed doing it so that is great . 
    The day looks like as though it may be dry again so dog walking will take place and possibly a trip to the park on the way. 
    Have had my remainder for my vaccine in the morning , I keep dreaming I missed it . 
    I hope we get some clarity on the 22nd of a way forward to get out of this lockdown before the better weather comes . 
    Enjoy the day .

    Are you having your vaccine tomorrow Sunshine? It will be good to have some protection :). I also hope we get some clarity for getting out of lockdown as it would at least give us all something to look forward to, although I don't want false promises that end up being broken so hopefully their strategy will be based on advice from scientists.

    I don't like pancakes but DH will make some for him and the DC. Have a good day :).
