Last time we tried to go shopping in Bath we had to get back in the car and go home after twenty minutes because Flora and Pearl were so appallingly behaved.
Today, I'm delighted to say, I was very proud of them- there wasn't a single complaint from either of them as we looked round the many shops.
Two fabulous, fun, whinge-free days in a row... it must be a record!
Their impeccable behaviour was rewarded with a lovely, long play in the park
and, as it was obviously down to excellent parenting, naturally I decided I deserved a couple of treats too-
new CK wellies...
and a giant stash of lovely soft yarn...
which will be used to knit us all new hats- I'd best get started as I want them ready for Saturday's fireworks. Do you reckon I'll finish them in time?
Hurray for my fabulous family!
Oh, it's so nice when your kids are a credit to you, isn't it? We've had a good few weeks too, and life is so much better for all of us. Cara even admitted today that she hadn't given me a minutes peace and agreed to 15 minutes without saying the word 'Mummy' once - result!
ReplyDeleteGreat girls, and great wellies!
I'm meant to be going to Bath next Saturday but have opted for Bristol instead!
ReplyDeleteLove the wellies and I never thought I'd say this but the wool has Me a little excited too!
So glad you're kiddies behaved for you!

Good luck with your move, I'm sure it'll be a more fab place for your brood to settle.

Oh yay for good days! And look at that sun - wish we had some. You earned those gorgeous wellies - enjoy x
ReplyDeleteLike the weliies! Was it you that did all those Christmas socks? In which case of course you'll get the hats done!
ReplyDeleteLove the wellies and all that yarn.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you had a lovely time - it does make all the difference when the little ones co-operate. I remember a time in York and we were the same - straight back to the car, no messing around - but then the treat was lost.
Have a fabulous day,
Nina xx
