Tuesday we managed to get up and out to make it to Guildford Air Hop where bean, 10, pumpkin, 8, and plum, 5, bounced for an hour. Pippin had to sit and watch, we did well with stories and sticker books and videoing plum but there were also some moments of sad because she couldn't go on...it'll be another two years before she is eligible for bouncing with the HE crowd!
Bean and pumpkin spent a lot of their time playing in the dodgeball court and plum bounced with her friend V and his mummy. She also enjoyed the pit.
Back home they were all shattered and spent more time in the den that bean created yesterday, more games on the pc, we said goodbye to Zuko, the crested geeko that we have been pet sitting and played chess with pumpkin and then plum for a few hours in the evening.
Bean requested biscuit making so he could use the cutters. We found a suitable recipe and he set about reading it and making the biscuits himself. I worked alongside hom baking my own batch of breakfast biscuits and being on hand for words he couldn't quite read and instructions and techniques he needed help with but i felt significantly more redundant than any previous biscuit baking afternoon.
Pippin nd plum both bathed and i sat on my bed with bean, plum and pumpkin and read stories all curled up together. Bean and plum read Each Peach Pear Plum together, it was beautiful and made my heart happy.

One boy and his dog
Archie, the dog, came to play for three hours on Friday. We took him over to the green to play ball for half an hour. We took turns to throw the ball using the flinging stick and had competitions to see who could get it the furthest. Then we took him home where we played with his soft toy and finally settled down to cuddle on the sofa.
Plum and I made biscuits in the shape of flowers and decorated them with petals and a bee, she counted and made exactly two each for our trip out tomorrow. I then made choclate chip cookies for everyone else.
Saturday was a mummy and daughter day for Plum, 5, and I. We drove to FA#3 house and played with cousins C and H until it was time to go see My First Ballet:Cinderella. We all loved it. Plum is already planning our next ballet outing. We then went back to FA#3 house for more play and pizza and climbing piles of woodchips which led to a shared bath and hairwash too.
Sunday Bean, 9, and Pumpkin, 8, stayed at home for Church as Bean is full of cold. We bbq'd our sausages and garlic bread for lunch and spent the afternoon sitting in the garden. Bean got out his remote control monster truck and Plum played with our neighnour across the fence. Pumpkin was playing on his tablet and Pippin slept.
I took Bean, Pumpkin, Plum and our neighbour to t@4 at church for the story of the cruxifixion and an egg hunt. We then came home and i spent time loading the boys games onto our newly refurbished computer. Daddy then lit the firepit and the smalls all toasted marshmallows into the evening. Pumpkin ser himself down to play roblox now that the computer was all set to go.

People are more important
Monday. Plum, 4, went to Little Verse with SGG and SGS. Whilst she was out i played chess with both Bean, 9, and Pumpkin, 7. Pumpkin made his own Skylanders using lego mini figures. Pippin, 2, vacuumed with me and went back to bed for a nap about 11.30am.
Bean and me played on the wii in the afternoon. He chose Skylanders. We played together for about an hour whilst the others played happily together in my bedroom. He also cut out biscuits and then decorated them using tubes of writing icing. He mostly made faces onto the star shped biscuits. He spent most of the day watching Pokemon Advanced on his new tablet.
Pumpkin has been making his own Skylanders on his tablet (for Imaginators) as well as lego mini figures. He has also played through Lego: The Lord of The Rings on his tablet over the last few days too. This afternoon we played Mario Kart on the wii together and in the evening he played board games with Plum and daddy.
Plum got the cars and car mat out this morning and continued to play with them when she was at home. She put cars on all the road to create a huge trafic jam. She played cbeebies games on her tablet and instigated the hour long game of mummies with Pumpkin and Pippin in the afternoon. She also initiated the idea of making biscuits and cut out and decorated her own star biscuits. She had wanted heart ones but we have lost the heart shaped cutter. We sand twinkle twinkle whilst we were cutting them out and she taught me Dingle Dangle Scarecrow.
Pippin, 2, has enjoyed watching Bing and Tospy and Tim today. She has been busy playing cars with Plum and cuddled up on the sofa to read books with Pumpkin. She has cut out biscuits and played mummies with Plum as well as hoovering with me and drawing tiny squiggles very carefully.
