The fruit monster strikes again. He nabbed these straight from the shopping bags as the tesco delivery driver brought them in!

Productive Monday, for once...

Early start from A (6) thanks to a blocked nose. Getting ready went very smoothly compared to last week and there were no dramas! Incredible! We left the house with time to spare and it wasn't raining. Our good fortune didn't last though and Amelie tried to sneak ahead of Isaac, tripped over him and landed flat on her face on the muddiest part of the pavement for miles around. I had one measly tissue on me trying to clean her up! Isaac fell too but he pretty much does every day so it wasn't a surprise!

We spent the day sorting various piles of clothes in various states (washed, to be washed, to be sold, to be put away, to be posted...etc!) Isaac had a nap and a huge bounce on our bed while we were upstairs.

After school they ran wild while I tried to finish upstairs but they were literally leaving a trail of destruction behind me! As is always the way.

They had a brilliant bath together this evening, I'm not even sure what was so funny but they couldn't stop laughing! They were in there for over half an hour! I used the time to clean the bathroom around them.

Bedtime wasn't too tricky tonight either as they are tired monkeys.

I have just spent my evening ironing damp clothes in order to help them to dry more easily. I tell you what, I don't really miss the dishwasher but I definitely miss the dryer!
