Digging For Gems

The Little Misses packed in a lot today!
They got up annoyingly early, made themselves Nutella on crumpets, squabbled a bit, cut up paper and scattered it all over the living room, jumped up and down annoyingly on our bed - while we were in it! and generally made nuisances of themselves until we got up.
Mr K took them over to the diner in Bicester for hot dogs while I lazed around in the bath drinking tea.
As soon as they got back Miss E and I headed off to Milton Keynes to the gymnastics party.
What a glorious day! The blue skies, the lambs, the green shoots appearing, the sun, the lovely country lanes...... Wonderful!
I left Miss E at the party and headed to Costa for tea with Mrs W and little Miss T. Very nice!
When we got back to the party Miss E was a bit subdued and clingy. She didn't want to eat anything or talk to anyone. Always brilliant at a party!!
We had to have words about being a bit rude and ungracious - she spent the last ten minutes asking when we were leaving.....
We went to ToysRUs afterwards to spend her pocket money. I suspect that may have been behind her eagerness to get going!
She bought an aquabeads set. Having looked at almost every item in the shop!
It came as something as a shock to her to see how expensive everything was and how little she could afford. Welcome to my life love!!
While we were out Mr K and Miss L went to Stowe for a walk, some ice cream, a treasure hunt and some pocket money shopping. She bought herself some nature books and a block of plaster type stuff to dig for gems in. All over my table!!
She loves it!
Bathtime and bed finished off a busy day.
