This week hasn’t been a bit rubbish (if I am honest it has been shocking) but you just pick yourself up and get on with it when you are a grown up, don’t you?

I am sure I will share why with you in due course, but for now here is my week in pictures:

33.  We saw a patch of blue sky and made a dash to the park where we enjoyed some kite flying and all the activities on offer.

34.  I have been struggling to find Isaac football boots as all the shops only stock from a UK size 10…… I finally found some online in a size 8 (got to love eBay) and he didn’t slip and slide across the pitch for his football lesson

35.  We had so much hail it actually looked like it had been snowing and the kids slipped and slid all the way to school.  It still looked the same when we had to go out at 11am for Sebastian’s 8 month check too!

36.  I drove to Portsmouth in the horrendous storm as Callan had an interview with the RAF about joining up and doing an Engineering apprenticeship.  I am hoping it is what he needs to knuckle down and achieve the grades he needs.  One thing is for sure – there is no way I am travelling in that weather again – his train got cancelled and I had to take him home again and it was a little hairy at times!

37.  Eliza had her feet measured and they have grown (as had Kian and Isaac’s) which mean’t brand new Fairy shoes!

38.  I held a twitter party for UKMumsTV and Nick Jr to launch their new show Zack and Quack.  Here is Charliemoos with her daughter Olive and Eliza posing with the Robot they made.

39.  The weather was rubbish so we had an impromptu Pirate Party with our visitors which involved painting treasure chests and making Pirate Hats and eye patches.  We had great fun!
