The saying goes that time flies whilst you are having fun, and that is most certainly the case with mum's visit - can't believe that she has already been here two weeks, and that I have only done one blog post in that time ;0)

To catch up.......

Mum and I have spent a fair amount of time out and about shopping and have completed my spring terrace which is attracting all kinds of little butterflies and ladybugs, so lovely to sit outside on the rare sunny day and enjoy the flowers - it has been a long, cold, bleak winter.

Yesterday after a big rain shower we were blessed with this gorgeous rainbow

The fact that it became a double rainbow made it all the more beautiful

Nick Nick is the only one in the family who doesn't mind all the rain lol

The children have loved having granny with us and have spent lots of quality time cuddled up listening to stories and chatting about their lives here, it is quite heartening as a mum to listen to them (when they don't know I am around) and hear that they genuinely are happy living in England.

Nick Nick has LOVED having Granny's attention and really "plays" for the crowd :0)

We collected my new car on Tuesday and am LOVING it, I have called her Daisy and Tracy has made me the sweetest little decal which I am having made and which will be going on her back - the kids are enjoying all the space and even Si seems to have fallen in love.


Megan breaks up for two weeks Easter Holiday today and her and Gran are off for a girls morning in Lindfield tomorrow while I take Nick Nick off to baby group. Phil breaks up tomorrow and we have some lovely outings planned if the weather will just give us a break and stop raining for a short time.

So so lovely to have my mom with me, wish time could just slow down a little bit as her holiday just seems to be rushing by.
