Quiet time ...

Well, it's been a quiet couple of weeks, back into the routine of school, work and housework. Nothing much changes there then! Anna is loving school at the minute, which is great.

We are contemplating buying a house ... you know us! We have just been looking at renting and there's hardly anywhere (especially nice!) that will allow dogs. We also want to keep Anna at the school and so can't move to far. The house prices have really shot up here in the last couple of years with a basic 3 bedroomed, 2 bathroomed house (single story - not much to look at) going for about 200 - 350k. Long gone are the days of picking up a bargain! Watch this space!

Last night we went around to our friends house for a BBQ. It was a great night. Anna had a bath there and put on her nightie and my friend had put loads of cushions down in front of the TV so the kids had a "Pajama party". It wasn't a late night but a great one!

It's Molly's birthday today - she's 2. Anna wants to bake her a "steak cake" and buy her a present. So today we are off to the pet shop! A nice and relaxing weekend ...
