It was my 33rd birthday last Wednesday and I'd like to say I had a lovely day but in fact I was sick on Wednesday night and most of Thursday so I never really got around to celebrating with my planned take-away and bottle of plonk. I got some really nice gifts though which is always nice.
This weekend the kids had a great time helping us clean out the garage (the things they find amusing eh). Actually the highlight was Grandads rather large van which he borrowed from work (we had a lot of junk in there!). They both had a lovely time sitting in the cab and Amy was quite cross that she wasn't allowed to actually travel in there.Then on Sunday Steve and Amy went skating. I stayed on the sidelines and watched over Ben because I do NOT skate - I have been skating about 5 times in my life and I'm that person who inches around the rink holding onto the side for grim death!
Amy was a natural at it and was even comfortable enough to let go of both the side and Steve for brief periods. She was skating for about an hour in all which seems quite good going for a 5 year old. She wants to go again next Sunday although I'm not convinced that the appeal is more for the spangly costumes that some of the skaters were wearing.
