After the great day at chessington we went back to nanny's for tea then Jacob came back with pickle and me for another sleep over and of course that meant making more pop corn and movies but it wasn't long before pickle and Jacob were asleep, worn out from running round at chessington, so i left them in the big bed in the living room and got into my own bed, they were both excited in the morning when they woke because we were going to London to see the lion king so after we washed dressed and had breakfast we went back to nanny's for a bit then headed into London we got to the theatre just in time to get a drink and some snacks before taking our seats, when the show started pickle and Jacob were mesmerised by the great costumes, it was a great show and we all really enjoyed it after it finished i let pickle and Jacob buy something from the souvenir shop pickle chose a cuddle toy and Jacob chose a book, then we had to head straight back as Jacob was going to his dads for a couple of days, its been a while since i started this post and a couple of weeks have passed, the weekend after we went to see the lion king pickle came to stay with me again and we had more sleep over pop corn nights and pickle Jacob and me went swimming at there favourite bathes, it was children in need weekend so pickle wore her pudsy ears all weekend, we had a great time...

Wednesday 2 November 2011


It was a brilliant week, all my worrying about not getting to speak with pickle on the phone was laid to rest the moment we met at the station, the smile on pickles face, the hugs & kisses she gave me, made my heart sing, we made good time to London and headed straight round to Nanny's, there was a few birthday cards waiting to be opened and nanny read each one out as pickle opened them, i told pickle about some of the things i had planed for the week including a little party for Saturday and asked if pickle would like to help write out the invitations, i was amazed at how good pickles writing was, she has only been going to school for a couple of months but the improvements are great, pickle loves it there, pickle wanted to give Jamie_lee her invite so we went next door to see her, Jamie_lee told us that she was going on holiday in the morning and wouldn't get back in time for the party, so she gave pickle a card and present, pickle was a bit upset that her friend was going away, Issy played at nanny's for a bit while i did some shopping then we went home got in our Pj's and made popcorn and watched a movie in bed before going to sleep. in the morning i asked pickle what she would like to do and told her that her bike was fixed, she asked if we could go to the park on our bikes so we set off it was so great just me and pickle riding our bikes and feeding the ducks and squirrels, that afternoon Sarah dropped Jacob round nanny's and pickle asked if he could have a sleep over with us, so when Issy and Jake finished playing at nanny's we went home and made a huge bed in the living room made loads of pop corn and put on a movie, in the morning we went back to nanny's and waited for Sarah Spencer to arrive with Maya and isla then we all headed off to chessington, the girls and Jake had a great time on the rides and looking at the fish in sea life , we all tucked into pizza for lunch then went on a couple more rides and took some pictures of the gang in a giant pumpkin, before heading home, there is still a lot more to tell about the week so ill post again soon......
