Hi Everyone, Wee Man here - Part 1

I am going to tell you a bit about the holiday me and granny went on to London for my birthday. We had a fantastic time and I think it was the best holiday ever. I can't wait to go back again another day. Gran said maybe next year.

We went on the Caledonian sleeper train from Inverness to London Euston and had breakfast on the train when we got there.

When we got to Euston we went to the hotel and left our bags before we went to Hamley's. I bought a model of the new London hybrid buses.

Granny blew up balloons and decorated our bedroom while I was asleep.

I didn't hear a thing!

The cool blue bunting was made for me by our friend Sue Waters in America.

The train card was sent from Pam Robinson in America. She made it just for me.

I was very lucky and got lots of gifts and cards from my friends and when we were having our breakfast the workers brought me a birthday breakfast and everyone sang Happy Birthday to me. I was a bit scared at first but it was very nice.

Afterwards we went to the London Aquarium. My favourite was the sharks

Granny's favourite was the Sea Horses but I think they are boring.

Did you know there is such a thing as Cowfish!?

In the afternoon we went on the Tea Bus There was lots of nice things to eat.

The ladies brought me a big cupcake and everyone sang Happy Birthday to me and I blew out the candles.

We went past this office building and the lady on the bus said it costs £30million to get an office there! I think that's just crazy!

I am sharing this with Elizabeth for T on Tuesday.

I will tell you more about our holiday another day. Maybe tomorrow.

Thanks for popping by to say Hi :D

Bye for now! Hugs, Wee Man.

It's a BIG one!

It's Nearly Holiday Time 

and LOTS More

I hope you are well and having a good morning/afternoon/evening wherever you may be.

Wee Man and I are off to London on Friday evening (7pm GMT), until next Wednesday, to celebrate his 8th Birthday in style. Check this! Doesn't it look wonderful?! 

Apart from doing that, we have several other activities planned too, which we shall share another day. We are getting very excited now :D

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile here are our most recent Index Cards, starting with,

Wee Man's Day 43

we used embossing folders in the Bigshot and he used paint dabbers for the colouring. Wee Man is getting very good at gently swiping across the embossed areas. 

My Day 43 is for the prompt Definition

I used metallic pencils.

Wee Man's Day 44

is an embossed alphabet. This time he used two shades of blue to colour it.

My Day 44

is simple doodle flowers on a decorated background.

I am also entering this into the final week of Summer Of Colour where the colours are Orange Orange Blue. I used an Orange Souffle pen, Orange Acrylic paint and blue acrylic paint that has a slight pearlessence about it. Many thanks to Kristin for hosting this challenge once again and for her unstinting support and encouragement to everyone taking part. {{Hugs}}

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here is my tag for the theme of Splashes, Drips & Dribbles on the Tag Tuesday blog.

I used ink pads, inks and bingo dabbers.

I think the quote is very true :D

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And last, but most definitely not least I would like to wish a Happy T Day to all my friends over at the Altered Book Lover, because T stands for T on Tuesday! :D

Wee Man and I went out shopping and stopped halfway for a treat.

Then further round the supermarket I saw this,

which goes with the coffee one I shared a few months ago :D

And then I bought these. *Drool*

I love cherries. I think cherries are probably my most favourite fruit, closely followed by Wee Man's favourite, Strawberries.

These are half of today's pickings from our garden. It's been another smashing year for our strawberry crop. 

Do you have a favourite fruit?

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thank you so much for your patience if you reached this far, we have enjoyed your visit very much.

Now until next time, be well and be happy.

{{Hugs}} :o) Mo x

And Wee Man of course

T Stands for...........

 Toddler Two Today

Well strictly speaking, the birthday was yesterday, (Monday), but I like the sound of the title, hehe.
I have just spent a wonderful few days with my daughter, her partner and their little boy, Jack, who turned two just yesterday. They arrived on Friday and go home on Thursday this week. It has been such a lovely time getting to know a sweet little boy with a gorgeous smile and beautiful manners. 

My Wee Man has found it hard at times, having another child in about his home and toys, and disrupting his routine somewhat, but I am proud to say that, overall, he has coped very well. It helped having the foresight to get different toys and books available for he and Jack to share; as they belonged to neither boy, there was no territory to fight over. 

We all celebrated Jack's birthday with a traditional family tea party of jam sandwiches, sausage rolls, mini sausages, crisps, cheeses and of course birthday cake. I'm just sorry that there wasn't enough to share with you all ;)

I am sharing these pictures along with the other ladies who join Elizabeth & Bleubeard each Tuesday over at Elizabeth's hang-out, the, Altered Book Lover.

I was ready for that cup of coffee after getting a phone call from school saying Wee Man wasn't well, for the second time in as many weeks. Hopefully the meds will take effect quickly and he'll be back to his charming self very soon. 

In the meantime, we all sang a little ditty

and the birthday boy blew out his number two candle.

Then came the wearing eating

and a cheeky nap

Isn't that just the best?! What a little rascal he is :o))

From there, he went directly to the bath, hehehe, and is currently fast asleep, as I type.

If you would like to join us for Tea on Tuesday, simply nip over to Elizabeth's blog and read all about it here.

Until next time...............

My Summer Holiday

My Summer holidays were very exciting. I had six and a half weeks off school. My birthday was in the holiday and now I am 7.

I finished the ICAD challenge. I made 50 ICADs and lots of new friends.

I had lots of fun in my paddling pool

enjoyed walks in the sunshine

 playing at the playground

riding on nice buses 

and eating in different places. 

But the best adventure of my holiday was going to Edinburgh and I slept in a guest house. 

I went on the Festival Wheel 8 times. The Festival Wheel is 50 metres tall but the London Eye is 120 metres. I went on the London Eye when I went to London in October 2013.

I went to the zoo.

I made a new bear in a workshop and his name is Rainbow Bear.

The ticket man on the tram gave Rainbow Bear his own ticket but he didn't have to pay

and the driver let me sit in her cab and I rang the bell 2 times. 

I enjoyed rolling down the hill near the castle

and I enjoyed getting back home again

I am looking forward to going back to school. I start Primary 3 tomorrow. 

Love from Wee Man :-D
