Last day of July

So: thought I'd do a quick blog.

Had a lovely dry, sunny weekend, we went to Ealing yesterday and I got two new pairs of shoes! Then on the way home, me and Daddy stopped by at Caitlin and Steve's to say "hello" and so I could play with Sylvie for a bit... we also wanted to see how baby Sidney is getting on and he was very well behaved and didn't cry once!

Sylvie and I were soon bouncing on her trampoline and playing in her playhouse (see photo above!) and Mummy came 'round too once she'd done a little bit of extra shopping so we had a lovely day and I slept like a log last night.

Today we went to the supermarket for our weekly shop, then me and Dad went for a walk so I could have a snooze (a full hour!) whilst Mummy tidied and cleaned my room up. Then, a lovely surprise, Sylvie and her family came to visit on their way to Elthorne Park so we (me and Dad) went with them for a quick game of football, and I had a long go on the swings before coming home for tea.

I ate really well for tea, but then felt veeeeeery tired and had a bit of a hot flush / temperature, so had a quick bath and no milk or story - I was out cold by 7.30!

Nighty night,

Samantha

At the weekend...

Sorry!

I know - it's been way too long... a couple of weeks ago, I was sick all weekend, so no photos and not a lot to report, hence radio silence.

Don't know what it was, just a bug, but I was very quiet on the Saturday and didn't eat too much all day, then after my evening milk, I chucked it all back up on the bed and on Mummy (sorry Mum).

I was even more lethargic on the Sunday and was sick two more times, but by Sunday night I'd brightened up a little and on Monday I was maybe 80% back to normal.

Anyway - that was two weekends ago, this last weekend we were in Liverpool to watch Uncle Ian drive an Aston Martin Vantage around Three Sisters race track. It was fast and loud! We also caught up with Ian, Sarah, Grandad Ozz and Granny Jean over a pub lunch at the Punchbowl near Sefton Church. The Punchbowl dates back to 1824 - that's a long time ago apparently and the site of the church has been a place of worship for over 800 years, and it's meant to be haunted!

And for my latest adventure - can you believe that last night I did a sleep-over at Julia's so Mum & Dad could go for a rare night out and I was the BEST little big girl...!!

Anyways, photos below - enjoy!
