Five Years

Although our decorations are still up, today really marks the end of Christmas for us as daddy's 11 day staycation is over and he returns to work.

Yesterday we celebrated Plum's fifth birthday. Some of us stayed at home all day enjoying a much needed At Home Day. Plum wanted to go the the play park at Sainsbury's with daddy and Pippin, 2, went too. We had birthday lunch with presents and cake made by daddy. Plum got a ballet dress and Peppa Pig puzzle, toy horses, a cake making playdough set and some tights. She spent the morning curled up in bed eatching on her tablet after an initial board game of dinosaur races with Bean, 9, and mummy. After the trip to the park she came home and played with her playdough and horses.

Pumpkin, 7, decided on an app to buy with some of his Christmas money. He chose toca lab and sat and played it most of the day. During the evening he organised his apps on his tablet into different catergories: fighting games, toca games, building and block games, round games.

Bean played the escapists again in the afternoon for a while. But mostly he wanted to be left alone today.
