HALF TERM

Love having my biggest lady off school, just so nice to not have to get up,rush about and get out.. 


Monday - we had friends over for a BBQ, the more friends over for a drink
Tuesday - swimming in the morning, then to a soft play place and dinner with friends in the evening, I then got the girls to bed and went off out to a medium night, very interesting.. Not sure how much to believe
Wednesday - we had a chilled morning, girls went off to grandma and granddads and I gutted the kitchen
Thursday - daddy was off to do his motorbike test, girls loved seeing him in the morning. We went to meet some friends at the park.
Friday - we went on a bike ride with friends, the children all love getting together.. 

No plans for the weekend, we need to clean cars and other housework I am sure it will be it off

30 day challenge

Time for change!!! 

I downloaded the app 30 day challenge, these next 30 days I am going to do the following challenges
- squat challenge
- crunch challenge
- no liquids other than water
- blog everyday 
- take a picture everyday
- read for half an hour a day
- learn yoga

I have set alarms for these from when my girls go to bed... So I will be more than ready for bed by 10pm!!

I am addicted to Pepsi max so this is definitely going to be a struggle, I have been having alot of late nights so bed early will be a struggle.. 
Am hoping being kept this busy, will stop me eating so much rubbish...

Wish me luck!!!

The past week!!

MONDAY-  Our biggest princess was being given and award in school, an honours award she had been nominated by her teacher, this was a total surprise for Katie and to see us in assembly made hers and our day.
We then went out with some friends, then me and Elsie spent the afternoon cuddling as Katie was going to her friends after school so no school run!

TUESDAY - We went to our usual tots group in the morning, then spent the afternoon with some friends at our house.

WEDNESDAY- We went with Lesley Anne and Chloe to activity world, hoping to stay there all day,but the girls got tired very quickly,we managed lunch then home to chill, then on to swimming lessons such hard work I am always exhausted when I get home.

THURSDAY - Soft play at sims, it's only on for a couple of hours, and Elsie, lockie and Chloe played so nicely we stayed the whole time, after school run it was time for ballet.

FRIDAY - food shopping day, then we went to a friends for lunch.

SATURDAY - Cuddles in bed kind of morning then tidied the garden, bike ride to mum and dads, home to tidy more, the girls went off to a skate park with daddy, I got ready for my run, chilled evening ..

Finally it's half term, we are all shattered and in need of a break!!! We have lots planned, but hopefully manage to get some chill time in

HOOPS AND CROSSES WALKERS REVIEW

So we got offered the chance to do our first review, we were very excited awaiting the arrival of the crisps! 

My girls are big crisp lovers, so when these arrived they loved the fact they were not crisp shape, they couldn't wait to get them open, the monkey that came holding the crisps was a hit also... 

The crisps were shared out in bowls between my 2 girls and obviously a bowl for monkey, they had a little game of naughts and crosses, then put the hoops on fingers before the taste test... 

THEY LOVED THEM AND WE HAVE SINCE HAD TO BUY SOME MORE. 

I Often worry about healthy snacks to give my girls, but these are so appealing and with 56% wholegrain these are perfect.
