The Wellyboots Tribe Step Forth - again!!

Yup - Jake did his third task (the maths table/record of times) with only a little fuss and a few shouts of frustration over his ruler! He really has a problem with rulers. For a child with such good fine & gross motor control this seems an odd thing to struggle with, but... Anyway - he achieved his goal and it didn't take him long in the end. At least he saw that he actually could do it, desite being convinced that he couldn't!

Other than that today has consisted of P. taking the boys swimming this morning (his choice to do that) & doing some shopping this afternoon. And me ploughing through the never ending piles of washing (doing more and putting away about a weeks worth!!) - interspersed with little 'sit-downs' and an hours nap (while P. was shopping, the girls were napping and the boys were upstairs at E's.)

This evening was 'Family Housegroup' at a friends, which is fun. Three or four families get together with their kids to do a fun-style bible study and crafts. The kids enjoy it - especially Boo because it's at her best-friend's house  .

Going to bed now. I do keep having the odd 'twinge' or two, but nothing really much seems to be happening yet on the baby front, so maybe all you 'late' voters will be right - but I hope not - all the nappies and clothes are sitting here begging to be used!!
