A good year

THis has been a good year. Late last year with the birth of little Natasha or Snuffle Bunny as she is affectionately known. This caused me a sleepless early 2009 but a glorious summer. My summer was spent with My mother who visited in June and my Sister-in-law Lisa, who spent 5 months with us over spring and summer. Without their help I would have been drowning under children, but instead managed some glorious adventures. Most of which included ice cream.

We had small adventures like going to the Zoo and the Seaside, flower shows and the great parks of London. And one big adventure to camp bestival (music festival) and Weymouth british seaside resort late September. This I would rate up with my most fantastic holidays.

I returned to work in August, and my work has been kind enough to allow me 2 days working from home a week. I like being back at work, and though I have little me time I enjoy the work/life balance. I get to take the children for coffee, yes they probably go to cafes too much. Emily asks if we can go to Starbucks or the cafe so she can have muffin and babychino.

Christmas was very fantastic with too many presents and a wonderful dinner cooked by Auntie Sharon.

The weather outside is frightful

Christmas cheer has descended on the family with the arrival of Auntie Sharon. We have put up the tree with multicoloured lights and a shiny star. Also of course there is wine and cheese.
