Sunday was Mother's Day and I was feeling a bit under the weather. My mum was coming round, so I made some cakes with the boys who really enjoyed licking the bowl! It is the best bit after all.
Monday was a bit like the song 'Manic Monday'. I just managed to take one solitary little picture of A playing with her Megablocks.
Tuesday and A and I went shopping for new shoes. Like all of my children, she has incredibly wide feet so when we go shopping for shoes, it is a case of the assistant finding something wide enough, rather than choosing. This was the only pair they had. A was thrilled, I was not overjoyed, but A absolutely loves them. At least we don't have arguments about what she is going to put on each morning.
Wednesday we all went to the park after school. I took this photo of L playing basketball and it was only when I looked back at it that I realised the amazing view in the background. This park is just up the road from the boy's school.
Thursday I received this bunch of flowers from a girl that I have been tutoring. I'm not usually one for flowers but I did think that they were rather lovely.
Friday was another beautiful day and I picked up this watering can for A. She has a watering can obsession and was so happy that she has been taking it everywhere with her. Now we just need to grow something so that she can do some watering!
Saturday came and went and I completely forgot to take any photos! Luckily, my husband took this one, so I 'borrowed ' it for my project. L is holding Nibbles who is the Beaver mascot. The Beavers get to bring Nibbles home for a week if they have been well-behaved. L is so thrilled that he has Nibbles as he loves cuddly toys. I'm not looking forward to Wednesday when he has to go back!
So, that was my week. My favourite this week is the first one with the boys madly cleaning out the bowl.
Come back next week and have a look at what we've been up to and if you want to see some more 366 projects, pop over to see The Boy and Me's linky for lots more inspiring photos.
I agree about licking the bowl - my youngest tries to lick it as soon as we've whisked the mixture though lol. Asda have some lovely watering cans and we got a new one today too.
ReplyDeleteYes I have that problem too but i always enjoyed it when I was younger too
Deletemmm cakes! Love the tulips too x
ReplyDeleteSome lovely photos there, I think the watering can is my favorite
ReplyDeleteThank you yes I like that photo too
DeleteI have the same problem with Burton when it comes to shoes but then I always had very wide feet and had to have my shoes ordered for me - even less choices back then!
ReplyDeleteWhat do you tutor? Those flowers are. Great spring colour to cheer you up :)
My fav is the watering can picture - reminds me of B as he loves to help water plants at his grandparents !
Yes I had wide feet too I always had to have horrible black laceups! She loves the shoes she had though! I am French tutor I used to be a French teacher before I had children
DeleteFlowers look beautiful - a thoughtful pupil. Great shots of the kids too - I like the watering can best too.
ReplyDeleteThank you yes the flowers were lovely and I do like the watering can photo too a lovely sunny day shot!
DeleteIt's a really lovely selection again. You can't tell you struggled. But oh how good will your photographs be of Cornwall (jealous) can I come ? ;)
ReplyDeleteThank you yes at the end of the week they didn't look too bad! One more week until we go to Cornwall and I can't wait! I would take you but you would have to sit on the roof rackas there is no room in the car
DeleteLovely pics, looking forward to seeing your Cornwall shots! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! Yes one more week at school and then we are off and I am really looking forward to it!
DeleteI want some pink shoes just like that!
ReplyDeleteI love the one in the park! His shadow is brilliant! :)
ReplyDeletelovely photos the view at the park is lovely, and her shoes look fab bet she adores them :)
ReplyDeleteFunny, we had a bit of bowl licking going on thursday too. More was eaten out the bowl than made it in the cupcake cases.
ReplyDeletein our house there are no arguments over the bowl licking, Bob is the only one who likes his egg/dairy/wheat/gluten free mix so he gets it all to himself
ReplyDeleteGreat pics, mine have to lick out the bowl too. I heart the shoes :)
ReplyDeleteBusy week for you, hope you've fully recovered now? Love the photo in the park, the perspective is impressive. Those flowers looks gorgeous, drooping very artistically.
