The Start of October

I think I became a little overwhelmed with life after my last posts...it's hard to want to keep on getting up day after day when you know what will lie in wait for you because of constant needs of difficult children. It wasn't fun and luckily it has passed, until the next time of course 😉 

So on a happier note here is what we have been up to over the last few weeks...

A random afternoon in and around worthing ending on the beach.

Henfield common in all the stinky water and raspberries from the farm shop.

Gaba and Pops round for dinner and obligatory bowling on wii. Pops also got on the snow board hilarious 😂 😂

J started rugby. It's taken him a few weeks but he is joining in and enjoying it now. First match this Sunday!

Daddies birthday....a week of excess!!!
H helped to make this stunning cake!

In amongst all the devilishness, they still are cuties.

Visit to Drusillas with lots of friends.  Great day had by all.

Halloween costumes arrived!

Weald and Downland after rugby, tired for a certain few.

Absolutely beautiful walk up on chanctonbury, we could see for miles!!!!

After our walk up chanctonbury,  we went to Sheffield Park and tested out their nature trail. It was given a thumbs up let's go back tomorrow!!  We also found an old dry lock.

Natural see saw 😊

We have also been swimming again with friends, or rather A did and I took the others into soft play.  It makes A feel very grownup to do these things by himself.

Following on our busy week, we went to the Blue Reef Aquarium with Nana.

Boys in a tank!!!

Sharks!!!!

After we had exhausted the aquarium we wandered along the seafront and discovered Southsea Castle.....

Underground tunnels....you can tell someone was scared!

A created this block castle, copying the picture on the lid.

J made his own 😉

A really good day out with only one fight near the end....with fists and everything. 

Going for a slightly quieter day yesterday we ended up at the Dinosaur Park with coffee and rockyroad. J made himself a friend who was home educated too and we stayed for around 2.5hrs. He and A certainly filled up their social cup!

This cheeky one ❤

We even managed to go shopping without hassle. A and J had their own shopping list as they wanted to make rockyroad and needed to buy the ingredients.  It worked amazingly and we were out in 25mins!!!!
Stopped off at Bramber Castle for a quick Milo walk and then home for pizza.

Much quieter day today,  but actually they could probably have done with going out again properly as they were prowling around, but at least I got my accounts work done.

A has gone off on a night hike with Daddy tonight with Cubs, and I am enjoying a nice glass of red and finishing off this post.....which I started on Monday!!!!!!

As a note i have noticed that H has become a lot more outgoing this last week, talking to more people.....by using his bear as a puppet. A did this too.
