Friday Funny – When Ella grows up…..

she wants Mummy and Daddy to live with her and all her babies (she’s having hundreds of babies in her tummy, so she informed me) but because it will be her house, she will be the boss and she will tell us when it’s bedtime.

When Ella has a house, shoes will be allowed upstairs (this was told to me, with a very serious look on her face, as she ran through the living room, stopped at the bottom of the stairs to quickly remove said shoes so she could go to the toilet and managed to hold it long enough to point her finger at me so that I knew she meant every word!!)

Conversation between KayCee and Ella

Ella: KayCee, when you’re bigger, can I have one of your babies?

KayCee: No Ella because I’ll have a boyfriend and he’ll want to keep the baby.

Ella: I don’t care anyway cos I’m going to have loads of my own babies.

Ella: and my own boyfriend. *sticks tongue out*……cue moany, whiny “Mummmmm, Ella stuck her tongue out at me”

Me: trying not to laugh at Ella’s boyfriend comment Ella, that’s not very nice, apologise to your sister.

Ella: Sorrrrry KayCee.

Hugs all round, peace again…..for about, oh, say, four minutes!

Seems like today’s the day for blog hopping! This is my third linky so far and they’ve all been great fun.
This one is for Friday Funny over at MummyMummyMum so head on over to share your Friday Funny 🙂

Dear So & So

Dear Alarm Clock
you seriously are not welcome back in my life after the luxury of being without you for the last 6 weeks.
Just because my Mum bought you from Argos, for a fiver, near on 20 years ago and you’ve managed to make me become sentimentally attached to you in all that time, doesn’t mean I have to like it when you start screeching at me at 6.20am.
I’ll tell you now, there’s no way you’re doing it again to me tomorrow, or Sunday, so there 😛
Yours, a very tired, cranky woman in need of more coffee and more sleep.
Dear Darling Husband,
thank you for putting your recycling in the bin most of the time all week since reading last weeks Dear So & So! *chuckle*
Your very appreciative wife 😀
Love you ZILLIONS xx
Dear KayCee,
Thank you for doing your very best to keep your bedroom clean, especially as we all know how much mess your little makes in there!
Love you Princess xxx
Dear Ella,
Please try to eat breakfast faster. I know your mind is full of, well lots of things at once and it’s hard to concentrate on a small thing like eating but you’re at school now and need a big, hearty breakfast!
Love you Monkey xxx
Dear So and So...

Flashback Friday

I read a post about Autumn earlier this week and I started getting excited about its arrival and also that of Christmas 🙂 I love autumn and winter. I don’t like being cold but I do love wearing my fur-lined boot slippers and big snuggly cardigan.
When they come out of storage, I start to feel Christmasey! It won’t be long now, my feet are a little chilly and I may just have to get the throw from the back of the chair to cover them up for a bit.
I came across this photo while looking for something else and thought it would be the perfect photo for my Flashback Friday post.

This was taken in January this year so not too far back but I remember going into the garden and seeing this stunning view. I just had to go back and get my camera. Looking at this photo, I can feel the freezing cold air on my face, feel the pain as it took my breath away if I tried to breathe in too deeply.
I wrapped my cardi tighter round my body and just stood for a moment, taking it all in.
We’d had quite heavy snow in December and I got great pictures but even the beauty of the snow (which just happens to be my favourite weather ever!) didn’t compare to the way the trees looked on that day.

I can’t wait for winter/snow/Christmas and I’m starting to get a little excited thinking about it!
Let’s hope (although I know my husband and Father in law won’t agree….mind you, they do have to drive in it while I don’t!) we have lots of snow this Christmas and more opportunities to take photos like these 🙂
