26 Jan 2010 - Day 26

Today was crazy busy at work as per usual - so I always enjoy picking Evie up and coming home with her. One of her favourite things is looking for the moon in the late afternoon sky and she wasn't disappointed today. I do wish I had a better camera to capture the seas on the moon as they were very visible today.

25 Jan 2010 - Day 25

Evie needed some more knickers so we went to the supermarket after I finished work so Evie could pick some new ones. These are the right size now as we got the others when she was still in 1.5 yr clothes

Day 18 - 24

18 Jan 2010 - Day 18

I hadn't been at work long when I got a call from the childminder - Evie had been sick at toddler group :( I packed up and flew out of the door to get her and bring her home. She wanted to be snuggled on the sofa and watch Finding Nemo..



19 Jan 2010 - Day 19

Today is dad's 60th bithday.. but there's no point in taking a pic of him as he'd get the hump!

So while I was at work I thought I would take an action shot lol my desk during the day!



20 Jan 2010 - Day 20

Today was a lovely day - we got some Frosty Post! It was from my friend Cerys's mum Pat with a lot of lil bits from the dentist for Evie and I! We both got a certificate to say we were good for the dentist and some brushing charts - I think they are more for Evie lol



21 Jan 2010 - Day 21

Wow - today Evie was telling the childminder that she wanted to be a big girl and use the toilet like mummy and Adele. So when we got home, I put Evie in knickers and we tried the toilet. So I made her a sticker chart to encourage her - Evie helped draw it a bit!
Fingers crossed sher carries on with it :)



22 Jan 2010 - Day 22

Evie had her 2 year check today - she did very well and is on target and above in some areas - I was so proud of her...



23 Jan 2010 - Day 23

My step-son Callum is 8 today! I can't believe he's grown up so quick.. he was 3 when I first met his dad. Happy Birthday Callum!



24 Jan 2010 - Day 24

Evie loves playing with her big brother Aaron. Today she decided that piggy backs were the order of the day! They ran about the house with lots of squealing on Evie's part lol
Also she was fabulous all day with wearing knickers - and didn't have a single accident..... proud mummy moment!

13 Jan 2010 - Day 13

It snowed again last night - went to work but got sent home as it was too dangerous to be on site. Evie wanted a Snowman - so I made her a Snow-momma! She has this thing at the moment where she asks if you have a baby in your belly so I made her this!



14 Jan 2010 - Day 14

Weather warmed up today - and so did the snowmomma! Her head fell off and she started toppling over!

10 Jan 2010 - day 10

Today was another keep cosy day - Andy was working all day and so I had Evie to entertain.... so I decided we should bake something!

We plumped for making brownies :) Evie loves helping mix, weigh and scoop! She is very good with a spoon to open an egg.

Here is our brownie - a bit tasted but will be cut up and put in a box.

9 Jan 2010 - day 9

coldest day in forever in the UK with still inches of snow on the ground. I just want the snow to melt and to get on with life now! Managed to get to the supermarket and then stayed in with Evie in the warm.

I asked Evie if she wanted to play a game, then she went over to pick a Wii game lol I told her I meant something like Connect 4 or Jenga! She picked Connect 4 so we *played* that for hours.

8 Jan 2010 - day 8

ok - so what's new... the snow? nope.. the cold? nope.. lordy! well at least the buses were back running so I had a good chance of getting Evie to her childminder.

She went - and I went to work... did some work and came home! Evie wanted to make more snowmen but the snow is too dry and only stuck to our gloves.. I suddenly realised that our house has loads of icicles hanging off the front of it and then saw our outside tap... EEK! It looks kinda arty but I know that unless it's turned off (and it's NOT!) it may burst... I may live with a plumber but does he remember these things before the weather gets cold..
