Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!!

A last update before Christmas. 

We had a couple of sick little boys at the start of the month.  A bug going around hit them pretty hard and I knew how sick they were cos they both fell asleep out in the lounge.  This is just not something they normally do. 

We’ve had some very hot weather over the last few weeks. It’s been nice to get the boys outside and playing in the water and the garden.  One morning the boys decided though that they needed there hats (or rather there beanies) on.  Odd children.

Last year I laybyed a Christmas present for the boys.  We finally got it out on Sunday.  Dale got rather light headed inflating it all and we hoped the boys would love it.  They didn’t!  We took them outside to put them in and they both screamed and yelled and didn’t want a bar of it.  After about an hour of Dale and I and Uncle Mark and Auntie Leonie playing in it, they got up close to it but didn’t really enjoy being in it.  Uncle Mark had a bit more success at getting them in and distracting them so they didn’t cry but never for long.  We will see how they go next time we fill it up. 

We put up the Christmas tree last night, after the boys had gone to bed.  We held off this long cos we knew the boys were going to be very interested in it this year, and they are.  I feel like I am constantly telling them no, or leave it alone, but I’m sure they’ll get over it by Friday.  Fingers crossed they will anyway!! 

Have a great Christmas all and see you in the New Year.  I hope Santa brings you all you wish for.
