Thank you Mum! :-)

Today has not been the best day in living memory - Zoe has not been sleeping at all well this week, and last night she was awake from 3 am to 4.30 am. Not crying, just awake and chatting away. Then I got a call at 7.30 am to let me know my childminder was ill and couldn't look after Ben today, just when I was planning when I could go back to bed! And then I got dog poo on the push chair wheels. Don't get me started on that!

So my day was cheered up by the postman delivering us a little parcel from Edinburgh. Here is Ben in his spooky gloves. We haven't tested to see if they glow in the dark yet, but I'm sure we'll get them under the duvet tomorrow!

And here is Zoe in her exceedingly cute hat - it fits perfectly. So thank you very much for brightening up my day. Now I'm going to bed with a packet of Fox's Viennese Chocolate biscuits and a pint mug of tea!
