Well another named storm has blown through the UK and particularly for us in Derbyshire and I have never seen so much rain! It began on Thursday night with the rain and it never stopped yesterday at all and it was heavy rain too. We also had high winds so lots of branches and some trees down. It was named Storm Claudia. Can we please stop naming them! Because since we have been naming them they have seemed to be so much worse than normal, lets just call them Winter storms!!!!!!
Eldest was out with his Fire Brigade unit over night and have, with another unit, resced 57 from a bus which was stranded in flood water! Generally in this weather it is silly people who drive into flooded roads and then their cars die because water gets into the air intake and then end up stranded. They are rescued and then ask the Firemen to rescue their cars which, of course, they do not do!!!
Coco has not been happy going out in it although last night just before bed when it was raining very hard she stood on our patio gazing around getting soaked, then objected to being dried when she came in!!!! She is going to have a much needed brush later which she will not like either but she is a mess where she got very wet!!!
DH is spending today and tomorrow here at The Arc in Matlock for one of the local swimming clubs their Open. We will be here in January for our Open. I, of course, have other jobs to do. I did not get the cleaning finished on Thursday for another reason which I cannot share just yet, so I will be finishing that this morning. Part of that reason was for our trip out yesterday, I was not at Eldest’s yesterday so I am doing his work today as well. I also want to get some quilting done too and it may be that I will get most of that done tomorrow. I will perhaps pinch a day here or there to get things done.
I am having the day off on Tuesday as Jayne is coming for lunch here, as I cannot still drive yet but I am making lunch. Really looking froward to seeing her. We have our next book to read which is Jayne’s choice and have a catch up. The next few weeks and weekends are going to be busy and in between all of that we have to get the Christmas decorations up and sort out visits to Family and Friends. Tonight when DH gets back we are going to sort out the Christmas gifts I have got already and then perhaps wrap them which will then be another job ticked off the list. Just the Christmas cards then to do!
Yesterday should have been Book Club Friday, but we did not get back until late so I will be doing it and the post will go up later today.
I hope you wonderful lot have had a good week. Next week we are due to get the first cold snap of the year which I think we have done well to get to the third week of November without it being too cold so far. We are going to have some frosty mornings and there will be scraping of car windows, quite glad I do not have to go out early in the morning! Have a wonderful weekend.
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old; Age shall not weary them, nor the years condem. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, We will Remember them.

***********************************************
We had a busy week last week and Friday we were with Eldest at the garage me work and DH sorting jobs out! Over the weekend we had nothing on so spent the two days in our garage sorting out boxes. We did get quite a few done and several things sorted out and ended up with six boxes emptied and cleared. There are still quite a lot to do but quite a few of them now contain toys from when the Boys were little which need sorting and tidying and some of them can already go to Little Man and some for when the new Baby arrives.
This week has been busy again and I have been doing work and sorting things out in our home as well. Coco has been helping although getting in the way is more accurate. Bonfire Night lasted for two weekends and the actual day of last Wednesday although it was not as many fireworks as might have been as the weather was not good. I had two visitors last Thursday to see me whch was lovely and Jayne is coming for lunch next Tuesday and this weekend DH is out both days at a swimming Open so I will be quilting.
My hip is coming along nicely and the only thing which is slowing me down at the moment is going up and downstairs which is still difficult, but today it has been three weeks since the Op, so hopefully the next three weeks and my checkup after the six weeks I am hoping it will have got a little easier. We shall see.
Even though it is just DH and I now, as well as Coco, I always seem to have a basket of ironing to do! That is today’s job and then Thursday is home jobs day. Friday DH and I are visiting a customer in the morning and I have a visit to the quilt shop which is near to where we are going. That is too good an oportunity to miss out on! I am going to have to get Eldest’s computer and work and do that over the weekend this week as we will not have time to go there as well on Friday.
It is our Wedding Anniversary this week; 37 years! The above is from our Wedding Album and no it is not sepia coloured just the light when I took the picture! With DH being out all weekend we are thinking of having a takeaway on Friday noght, Date Night in. Friday it is going to be heavy rain all day and the temperature is dropping so it is not making me want to go out. The day we got married it was a very clear frosty day with bright sunshine but cold and our pictures were amazing. We got married at 11.00am and then after photographs etc we sat down for the wedding breakfast at 1.00pm aand then finished around 5.00pm. We did not have an evening event but went away on Honeymoon to The Lake District, where it snowed! We had a great two weeks.
Then the weekend after that we are taking the children to see Santa on the train. That has come round very quickly since I booked it in July this year! The last weekend in November we are babysitting, not the children but the animals! Blaze and Gordon are coming to stay whilst Youngest & Fiancé are away for the weekend at a work event for him. We will also be sorting out the deocations that weekend and the Tree and possibly all of us going for a meal out because it will be Youngest’s Birthday too. It is all go. Then it will be the headlong rush to Christmas but the best bit of it all for me seeing family and friends for Christmas. This is why I like to get everything done before December arrives so that we are able to actually enjoy the Festive Season without trying to do it all. Well that is the plan anyway!
“Remember, Remember The Fifth of November, Gunpowder, Treason & Plot!”
The Night we remember Guy Fawkes when he tried to blow up the Houses of Parliament in 1605 but was stopped at the very last minute when the Authorities received an anonymous letter telling them of the plot. Fawkes was arrested that night whilst guarding the gunpowder. We let fireworks off to represent the gunpowder and we have bonfires where we used to burn an effigy of Guy Fawkes.
Here are a few pictures of the Boys and the fireworks we have had over the years in the garden. DH is out tonight running Event Control for the Council Bonfire. Normally I would have gone with him but it is cold and I don’t fancy sitting in the Truck or the cold van for a few hours!!!!
The Boys with sparklers
Fountains going off in the garden.
The firework below was at an organised event we went to.
It has been getting colder here and Coco’s quilt cover is cotton and so I decided to get her a brushed cotton one which I think will be warmer for her. They arrived last week, they have penguins on them, and she loves it. She immediately got in her basket and snuggled up!
I managed to get two for £16 which is a good idea as she gets them mucky quite quickly!!! So one on, one in the wash! This was one of the reasons she did not do her Coco’s Corner post yesterday, she was too comfy!
I have been keeping up to date with work and home jobs and getting a few other things sorted including things for Christmas. This weekend DH is home all weekend so we are going to carry on doing the de-cluttering in our garage. It is a job I am determined to get finished by the end of the year and we have a few days between Christmas & New Year to get it done finally. Part of this is also our attic although quite a bit of what was stored up there is now in the garage. We are giving things to the Boys that we have saved including baby things so that is working well.
I have been re-watching Series 4 of “Stranger Things” to remind me what happened before Series 5 finale starts at the end of this month. I have found that when you have such a long time between series you forget what has happened. I realised this when I was watching Game of Thrones all the way through with no breaks, some things made sense that never did before because of the gap between the series. So I now go and watch the previous series so I know where I am up to.
I will take some pictures of the garden, most of our leaves are now off our trees although the very big trees which are in the field at the top of our garden have not started to lose theirs yet so we will be in for more leaf gathering. Coco is enjoying the space we have created in the bed where we had to take out the Box plants and I am planning which plants to put in next Spring but I am not doing anything with it until then.
I hope you are all having a great week, tomorrow is Thursday and I have a friend coming for coffee and biscuits in the morning to see me. Have a good rest of the week.
I went in on Tuesday October 21st at 7.00am for my Op and fortunately I was second on the list for that day so did not have to wait too long before going down to theatre. I will not gross you out with the details but after four hours I was back on the Ward with DH! An hour later I was up and walking to the bathroom and getting things moving. I was in a bay with three other ladies, two had new knees and the other had had an accident and had plates put in. I was determined to get home as soon as possible but ended up staying for three days. I have found, the few times I have been in hospital, that you never sleep properly, they are always too warm and the constant checks they do on you during the night when you have just nodded off!!!! Anyway my Consultant was happy for me to come home on the Thursday evening, I did stay in bed on Friday catching up on my sleep, got up Saturday and then spent Sunday in bed. Monday I was back at my desk working.
The best bit of it all, there is no pain in the hip! Yes it is sore and of course swollen but I can cope with all of that as there is no pain. I did have the clips taken out on Friday, all sixty of them (!) and the Nurse checked the wound which is all fine and healing well. The only problem is that my skin around the wound has reacted to the dressings and has blistered in places but it is fine. I have been doing my exercises every day and the only thing which is taking time is going up and down the stairs but everything else is fine.
At the weekend I managed to get all the cleaning done and the washing and now have a basket of ironing to get done.
Friday I was at Eldests getting two weeks worth of his work done and he is now up to date. Just before I went in to hospital there was a software upgrade to the Accounts package we use and this new version is running with AI and it is dreadful! It takes fifteen minutes just to log in and has obviously not been thought through properly at all! Anyway despite all that he is now sorted. Our work is also up to date although DH’s laptop for work, which he uses all day every day, stopped working the weekend I was home so he has had to have a new one and get all his data across! He has spent the last week doing work onhis phone which is never easy but today he is back up and running!
I missed saying Happy Halloween to everyone and we did have a few Trick or Treaters on Friday evening, although I was still with Eldest. DH came home to feed Coco and let her out and sort out the shopping whilst I finished Eldest’s work. The weather was not very nice so we think that put a few people off.
DH over the weekend raked all the leaves in our garden and had a tidy up as the weather was nice and the best bit of the weekend I got out of Hospital was that we put the Hour back and gained an extra hour in bed!!! I know that means that it will be getting dark earlier but I do love this time of year! It is cosy and I love drawing the curtains and putting the lights on.
I did get quite a bit of reading done whilst I was in hospital and will show you what I have been reading next week.
Coco missed me and spent the two days I stayed in bed next to me snuggling. When I saw Little Man he wanted me to pick him up and give him a hug which I am now able to do because my hip has been fixed! I have my six week check up on December 3rd and then I will be able to drive again, although Eldest has my vechicle at the moment as he is doing some jobs on his!
DH had his Birthday in the middle of the week so everyone came to us on Saturday for a family dinner, which was a takeaway as I am not quite up to cooking for seven of us just yet. It was lovely to have everyone here, they came early and then went home early evening and I must admit I was quite tired by the end of it!
DH has been busy with events of course, the Finale of 100 years of Carnival in the village with a big firework display where 1000 people attended. He also did two weekends of County swimming events and one of our other local swimming club’s Ghoul in the Pool Open event. Next weekend we have nothing on so we will be getting some more de-cluttering done in our garage. I am still determined to get this job finished before Year End and also empty and tidy the attic too.
I cannot believe that it is November already? The months really do seem to fly by although with me being a little less mobile this month I am hoping that I will be able to get lots done at home. I have capitulated and bought our Christmas Cake, pudding and mince pies this year because although I have a few weeks before Christmas I do not want to be rushing around trying to get things done. I can do all that I normally do next year!
I have been buying Christmas Presents as I have seen things and have a few more things to get and then I am done! I have all our Christmas cards ready for us to write and need to wrap the presents and again it will be done. We have a few nice things to do during December and also seeing family and friends which is my favourite bit of the whole of Christmas so I am really looking forward to that. DH and I are going to a concert on December 5th ” Vivaldi by Candlelight” which I am looking forward to, we also have a day planned to go around the Christmas Market and see all the Christmas lights. DH has three Christmas Light Switch ons to do and the Presentation Night for the swimming club. We are taking the Children to see Santa on the Steam Train again which will be great, we have Youngest’s Birthday and also a Fun Gala for the swimming club too. It is going to be busy as always.
Christmas will be here before we know it!!! I am planning on doing a two step decoration set up this year rather than trying to do it all on one day, just so I can concentrate on getting things done properly. Our tree, we always have a real one, will be the last thing done at the beginning of December. It made be laugh looking at the TV films on Friday it was ALL Halloween and then Saturday the schedules were full of Christmas movies!! There did not seem to be any gap between the two!!!!!! I do love the Christmas movies and will be watching them when I have had enough of all the Horror movies!!!
DH does have another two day weekend swimming event on November 15th and 16th so I am going to spend that weekend in my sewing room getting some things finished! I will show you it all when I can.
Anyway I hope you lovely lot are all okay and will have a great week.
2025 is turning into a poor year for losing our Greats and on the 11th the great Diane Keaton passed. Her films were varied but she shone in all of them, my favourites being “The First Wives Club” which also stared the late great Dame Maggie Smith. “Father of the Bride” and of course “Annie Hall”.
Last week and the weekend were hectic as always with work, home jobs etc. At the weekend DH had a swimming event on Friday evening and then all day Sunday with set up on Saturday night! We did manage to get a few jobs done around it but I did get a little bit of sorting out done in the sewing room and some reading too.
This week is very much trying to get all the jobs sorted out including work, Eldest’s work, home jobs etc before next Tuesday. Everyone I know seems to have a bad cold/flu at the moment including jayne, who has cancelled our luncheon tomorrow. I am actively staying away from everyone at the moment in the hope that I will not catch anything before Tuesday and my Op.
DH managed to get our lawn mown over the weekend and picked up a lot of the leaves which have come down in the last week. Mind you no sooner had he put the mower away the lawn was covered again in leaves! It is one of those never ending jobs until all the leaves have come off the trees! The weather is getting cooler here and although we have seen the sun a few days it has also been quite dark and misty too. In fact the other morning it was foggy again!
This coming weekend Friday morning DH and I are going out for breakfast and then I have to drop my car with Eldest who is going to use it while I am out of action as he needs to do a repair on his and it will save him having to rush it. Then Friday evening DH is setting up the swimming event again for both days this weekend and whilst he is there I will be in the sewing room getting a few jobs done. Monday will be a day of ensuring everything is done before I have to be at the hospital at 6.30am on Tuesday!
This is now out on Amazon Prime Premier and I have watched it again and I just love it, it really is a great series and with the wonderful Dame Maggie Smith, she really does have the best lines of all.
How are the “Ber” Months treating you so far? Here in the UK we have had one storm come through but not too much damage, but we have had a lot of rain, to make up for all the dry summer we had. I am so glad that we got our roof looked at and repaired otherwise we would have had another leak into the bedroom that we have only just painted!! There is always something! However despite the dry summer and now all the rain the leaves are only just beginning to fall from the trees, I thought they would have shed them a lot sooner than this, although the colours are not as striking as usual.
As it is Thursday today I will show up a couple of #TBT pictures of the Boys when they were little. In the UK we have what are called “Half Terms” where the schools have a week’s holiday generally at the end of the month this time October and around Halloween and DH’s Birthday. Jayne and I used to take her two and my two out for a trip and then they used to come round for the afternoon and evening and we would do Halloween games and I would read a Ghost story, it was good fun and my two still remember doing it.
DH & I took The Boys to London at Half Term in October 2005. We took them on a boat trip on the Thames down to The Tower of London
Here they are with a Beefeater at The Tower
How can these pictures be twenty years old? Eldest was ten and Youngest was six! Then for a couple of years DH and I have been down in London, once for his Birthday and once for our Anniversary which is November but we went at the end of October.
We went to the Charles Dickens Museum which was really interesting
We also went to the Greenwich Observatory which has a commanding view of London
Obviously we won’t be going to London this year with my Op etc so again hoping that we will be able to book for next year. We are having the trees in our garden trimmed in two weeks so I should be able to show you some pictures of the garden then. Also have some bedding plants to put in my pots for over winter and also the Spring Bulbs to plant. I am hoping that the weather is going to be kind for a couple of days to get these jobs done.
The days and weeks are flying by and we are now in October! Don’t know where September went to!!!
It was the annual Goose Fair in Nottingham last weekend, where DH and I had our very first date 39 years ago!!! We did not go because of my hip and it was pouring with rain on Friday here with another storm which came through. Someone else commented that ever since we have been naming these storms here in the UK they have gotten worse!!!
Speaking of things, I saw an Instagram post the other day which said that since 2020 the World has been on the wrong path, you know how some believe that there are parralell Worlds going in the same direction but things are slightly different? Well some believe that we are on the wrong path which is why everything just feels slightly off at the moment? How we get back to the right path if this is the case I don’t know? It is very much like an Isaac Asimov story!!!!!
Anyway back to Friday we took Coco and Honey for them both to have a spa day. Coco needed it as she was again very floofy and Honey needed to be de-shedded. She is a very long legged golden labrador, very soft and typically goofy. We had them in their crates in DH’s truck so they could see and talk to each other but not running around like lunatics which they do at home! They were both very good, the only thing Honey did not like was the drying cabinet, perhaps she thought it was an Harry Potter Vanishing cabinet! Both of them then spent the rest of the day fast asleep. However DH and I got soaked getting them in and out of the truck. We had a long day getting errands done and managed to fit in a nice breakfast too but by the time we got home it was late, we were both tired and so we did not even go and drive round Goose Fair.
Saturday was again busy and DH had a swimming competition in the afternoon. The bed quilt I have been trying to finish I have given up trying to quilt it on my machine. It is far too big and heavy and I have ended up with skipped stitches so it is going to the shop I use for it to be completed on their long arm quilting machine. I have decided I can do single bed size quilts on my machine, but nothing bigger. It is a gift for my best friend. Jayne, her daughter but I am sure she won’t mind it being a little late.
Jayne and I were ladies who lunched on September 23rd at The Farmhouse near us and the food was really good as usual. I will show you on Friday for Book Club Jayne’s pick for her book last month and my pick for this month. I have really loved our little Book Club and the books we have read and am so glad we embarked on this journey together.
I am seeing Jayne for lunch next week, at The Rose & Crown, just before I go in to Hospital the following week and it is Jayne’s choice so I will be able to take the book in with me. I have also got about another six books I am going to put in my bag, well you never know I might finish Jayne’s book or need to read something else. I always want to take too many rather than have not enough!
I am also trying to get my home jobs all done and some other things I want to sort out before I go in on the 21st! I am up to date with work here and at Eldest’s and I have also managed to get the Membership data all sorted for swimming. We had a new database and the data was transferred from the old one but of course it did not come across properly and it was one of those jobs that I kept meaning to do and had done some of it but have spent several days getting it all up to date! The Swimming Club AGM is at the beginning of November so at least I know that all the data is correct for the renewals then and before we have to renew everyone at Swim England!
I am hoping this week to be back and blogging every day, last week just ended up flying by no sooner was it Monday, it was Friday and the week had gone! I hope you lovely lot had a great weekend and a good week to come.
As with all days this one comes around and it is now twenty four years ago, which seems unbelievable. I think it will be a day eteched in everyone’s memories who witnessed this terrible thing on our TV’s. Our hearts go out to all those who lost loved ones.

Yesterday was busy as I am trying to sort out all the paperwork for my current vehicle and for the new vehicle well new to me. Years ago it was suggested that eventually paperwork would be a thing of the past and we would do everything on line but here we are in 2025 and I suspect we are still using the same amount of paper! I once worked in an office where they actively encouraged no paper use at all and to be perfectly honest they seemed to use more paper than anywhere else I had worked!
I have been busy with work this morning and so am going to do my home jobs done tomorrow. The weekend is busy for DH with swimming and playing cars with the Boys (!) and I am hopefully getting on with quilting.
Tomorrow is Book Club Friday and I have quite a few to show you and some thoughts on one particular Author, who is very popular at the moment and is everyhwere but I, well I will tell you tomorrow. I may lose people over it but still! 🙂
It is getting cooler here, especially at night, although it is still warm in the day. Autumn is starting to make itself known. The other day when the windows were open a neighbour had a bonfire and the smell was wonderful and really reminded me that Autumn is here. Because it has been very dry this Spring and Summer the leaves on the trees are already falling and the trees are turning already. Although I do love all the seasons as they offer something different I think I love Autumn just that little bit more.
Coco is having withdrawal symptoms because the door is not open all day for her to run in and out! If we get a nice day the door is still open but we have also been getting quite a bit of rain too which we do need. She will soon be snoozing in her basket!!!!
Happy Thursday you lovely lot. Hugs & Love, Susie & Coco xx
I know we are only just into Autumn but I need to start sorting out some things for Christmas, especially as I am going to be laid up for six weeks! Not strictly laid up but I won’t be able to be out and about like normal! So I have started to get some things done.
I have already booked the Steam Train to see Santa as we needed a specific date so that is one thing off my list! This week these have arrived;
The Christmas Cards!
I am not going to write them yet (!) as I can do them when I am back from my Op! The next thing I need to plan is all the Christmas baking! I have suggested that I buy the mince pies, Christmas Cake and Christmas Pudding this year and so when I was shopping last week I got some mince pies for DH to try. He was not impressed!!!!
The supermarket I shop at, Sainsburys, do their own range which is called “Taste the Difference” which is better than the basic range. So I bought these last week and although DH said they were okay he preferred their basic ones!!! So I will be buying some of those this week for him to try and if they are okay I will be ordering some each week and putting them in the freezer.
Last year I did buy our Christmas Pudding from Fortnum & Mason and then we ended up with two so we had one and the other is in the cupboard for this year so that is already here and ticked off my list. With regard to the cake that is going to be the trickiest. Eldest loves the cake I make which I cover in Royal Icing. DH loves the cake but not the icing, Youngest prefers the chocolate log I make and Partner does not like fruit cake at all. Fiancé being pregnant is off all things rich! So if I get the Fortnum’s Christmas Cake it is fruit but it is covered in the fondant icing which none of us like! However they may just have to put up with it for this year!
I have already bought a few Christmas presents when I have seen things during the year but again there will not be as many this year as I will not be able to get out and about. Although you can buy anything on line now I still do like to go out and see things but we shall see. I have ordered the Christmas paper though!!!!
I have quite a bit of storage now in Youngest’s room, so things will be going in there to be stored and I am keeping a list of things I have bought already and for whom, so I can keep track of things. Of course it will be Gordon’s first Christmas and I have ordered him his own stocking from Etsy which is arriving on Saturday. I need to sort out the animals presents too!
DH is already booking events for Christmas and a few have been confirmed. There was one enquiry for a Friday evening at the beginning of December but I had already booked tickets for DH and I to go and see Vivaldi by Candlelight that evening. I have booked my hair and beauty appointments for December as they get booked up really quickly.
It is not all Christmas though, we do have some lovely things coming up in the next few months too, although DH and I will not be going away for our Wedding Anniversary this year as I will have only just had my Op! However I will be booking for next year! We think we will be going away for a week with Coco at the end of February, beginning of March just for a week to decompress after Christmas & New Year.
Work is busy which is a relief although we are still having ups and downs thanks to our Government and their “policies” which are all over the place at the moment, as well as the volatile situation generally. I think we just need to keep our heads down and get on with things and ignore everything going on out there!
I hope you are all having a good week. Next weekend DH is busy with a swimming event and then he and The Boys are doing some work on their own vehicles so I will hve two days of quilting time! I am sure Coco will be helping.
Hugs & Love Susie & Coco xx
Coco would normally be doing Coco’s Corner today but she is a bit tired again!
The evenings are definitely drawing in, but I am sure the weeks are getting shorter! There are supposed to be seven days a week but they are absolutely flying by! The weekend was really busy; DH, Eldest & Partner, Youngest & Fiancé and Little Man went to a truck show on Saturday. The weather was great, warm but not too sunny as a lot of the exhibts were outside. I did not go of course because of my hip, so I was doggy sitting Gordon and Coco.
Friday DH and I had a busy day getting jobs done. We have started sorting out the boxes from the attic which are now in the garage and getting rid of things and also giving things to the Boys!! Hopefully it will be finished by the end of this year. We also have the attic to tidy, but there is not too much in there now.
Sunday DH, Eldest & I went to look at a new vehicle for me. Well I say me but DH and The Boys all use it as well. We had a good visit and it looked great so we are now in the process of sorting it out and hopefully I will have it by Friday of this week.
This weekend DH has his first swimming event of the new season but only for a few hours on Saturday and in the evening we are going to see the new Downton Abbey film at the cinema. We have not been for ages, mainly because there has not been anything ,on we wanted to see, but this is only being shown at the cinema first so I thought we would have a date night. Sunday will be nice again so I think we will be carrying on in the garage.
We did do quite a lot of work in the garden and have gotten quite a few of the plants which needed trimming done. We have arranged for the tree men to come at the end of October to trim the trees in the garden hopefully before the storms begin. We did them about two years ago but they need doing again. Our Roofer came to sort out the drain pipes last week and we asked him to go all over the roof to check it and he found one bit where a tile had slipped and it needed re-positioning and re-pointing which he did. We are so glad he did because the next day you have never seen rain like it! If we had not had that done we would have had water coming in!
This week is busy again with work of course and I have lots of home jobs to get done too, as well as a basket of ironing. I am going to Eldest’s business on Wednesday to get work done there too and then Friday we are waiting for a delivery to arrive and then hopefully picking the car up.
The other news we have in the family is that Youngest & Fiancé are expecting! Yeah! We are all so pleased for them. The baby is due at the end of January 2026 and we had a Gender Reveal here a few weeks ago with just the family and they are expecting a little Girl! Little Man’s face was a little disconcerted as he has, of course, two sisters and now will have a little girl cousin. He will be surrounded!!! Above is the table set waiting for everyone to arrive. I made lasagne’s for dinner with salad and garlic bread and then we had cake . They had got the smoke to reveal the Gender and it was very pink!!!!
Little Man in his highchair at lunch.
We are all so pleased for them and cannot wait to welcome the new arrival into the family.
I will try and post everyday this week as I am slipping with things mainly due to the days flying by!!!! I hope you lovely lot have a fantastic week.
Hugs & Love, Susie & Coco xx
Coco has had a slow day today in her basket next to my desk!
