Have you all got lovely things planned?
Its my early start but bonus I don't have eyfs mindees today.
Later Im taking dh shopping as I know he loves it :laughing::laughing: for ds's birthday on Sunday just wish I knew what he wanted. Going to be 14 and all I get when I ask is Microsoft points.
Im also planning on staying in a lot as my hayfever has kicked in with a vengeance.
Have a lovely day everyone stay cool :cool:
Definitely water play. Mindee is bringing swimming costume so the wetter the better!
Off to toddlers this morning - we are doing a "People who help us theme" so last week we had 2 Police Officers with a police car and riot van, today we have 2 doctors coming (a childminders daughter & a friend), next week we have a vet coming.
I hate sun cream with a vengeance really wish they would bring out a tablet you could give to the children as I'm rubbish at applying it - last week a parent sent a really thick gloopy factor 50 for her son, when the dad picked up and I said how much I hated applying sun cream he said "yes that's why we have a lovely spray one at home"!
:-) We're off to the beach as soon as I've assembled the pantechnicon for everything we need to take!
I'm so jealous! I grew up at the seaside but we rarely went to the beach and didn't appreciate being so close to the sea. I'd love to live close to one now.Quote:

We've got a very broken up day today. On top of the usual mid afternoon collection I have a mindee going off part way through the morning to a settling in session in his new reception class and then coming back a couple of hours later, so we can't really stray too far today. We've got to stroll down to the library to drop off our slightly overdue books and collect more that DD ordered (sounds so dull compared with going to the beach loocyloo) and then it will be garden play, which will no doubt involve water. We were going to make some beach cupcakes but I can't find my mini umbrella cocktail sticks.
Hector's house, that made me laugh - every year we fantasise about taking a tablet instead of sun cream!
Here we are at the beach!Quote:

OMG! How jealous am I? What lovely memories for them. If you are lucky I might upload a picture of us at the library later (not!).
I could post a picture of us in the garden, me with my trousers rolled up and my feet in the paddling pool - but I don't think anyone deserves to see that :laughing:Quote:
