An unexpected perk!

Well as you all know we have recently had a shake up at the Hamster wheel and we are now sleeping on our super comfy (and expensive ;) ;) !!) sofa bed. Well for as many plus points that is has this has to be one of the best.

I AM Blogging in my bed!!!! woo hoo!

I am a little bit sick with a sore throat and a bit fluey but I am all cosy in my bed, watching a fab cookery show and surfing!!


Aaaaah bliss! This is the life!


(cue a 6.30 bedtime from now on haha)

Stereophonics said it best

"There's no mistake
I smell that smell
It's that time of year again
I can taste the air"

I love it!!! It is so cold here just now, already it is time for coats and hats for the kids , I just treated myself to some amazingly cosy "Ugg" style boots and can't wait to get out and try them. cosy boots too for the kids to go crunching through the leaves. I love it!!

It has been quite cold in the house in the evenings too which can only mean one thing!! Hot chocolate!! But hot chocolate weather to me isnt just about warm milk and amazing chocolate, Oh no hot chocolate in my house is only consumed from my favourite Disney Christmas mug!! This is the best bit! It never fails to make me smile, Mickey dressed as Santa delivering presents, Donald electrocuting himself while putting lights on the tree, the roaring fire in the firepace. I is just so warm and cosy and Disney!

So as soon as I feel that chill, smell that special cold crisp air it can only mean one thing!!!

And I love it!!!

A walk for Bud


On Sunday Sept 21st my beautiful children took part in a sponsered memory walk to raise money for Alzheimers Scotland. We walked in memory of our beloved Bud, Murray's Grandad. We lost him in January of this year. He was trully one of lifes special people. He was a true gentleman. Fraser had a very special bond with him and actually gave him his very special name, Bud. We miss him so much and talk about him almost everyday. He was affected by alzheimers for around 2 years but on hindsight his memory had been failing for a lot longer. The upside to his illness was that Christine (my MIL) was very involved in his day to day care and as a result we all got to spend a lot of time with him, precious time that we may have wasted had he been 100% fit.

Sunday was an emotional day for us all but was worth every step that those special kids took. I am so proud of them and their acheivement.


This one's for you Bud

100 sleeps to go!!!!

Knock three times

What a wake up! At 2am the other morning I was sleeping soundly. All of a sudden there was a loud knock at the door! I leapt out of bed and ran to answer it (dressed ever so beautifully in a long(ish) black vest ;) ) When I opened the door there was K standing on the other side! "more milk please mummy?" LOL I settled her back into bed and she went back to sleep and so did I, thinking how cute she was to have knocked!

Next morning I asked Murray if he had heard the door in the night, he replied " Yep, although I don't know who you thought you were going to answer the door to dressed like that!!!!!"

I hadnt even thought of that! Oops!

It's official!

The Princess is all grown up! Her first real day at Playgroup today! She was dressed an ready to go at 8.30, had her pack pack (back pack ;)) on and everything! Unfortunately it doesnt start until 9.15 but it is good to be organised!

As soon as we arrived she found her coat peg and ran straight in to get started! She did manage to blow a kiss to me as an after thought. She had almost as many smiles as I had tears!!

I am so glad to have her home again , my girl.

The Princess goes to Taytoop!





Today was a big day in the Hamster wheel! The Princess had her first day at Playgroup! (or Taytoop as she calls it) She was so grown up in her little playgroup polo shirt, I was able to stay with her today and she did great, I am sad and nervous for Monday though as she will be staying by herself for a whole 2.5 hours!!




What a big girl , where has all the time gone??
