happy halloween

Last week we bought a pumpkin to carve...

my first pumpkin carve :)
...considering its my first time doing a pumpkin its not too bad :)

evie is saying this is nothing to do with me
happy halloween :)

all by herself

Evie got up just after me this morning, and did her usual (lying on her bed until I told her it was 7 am (breakfast time)), then at 7.20 I had to go to the loo and she told me that she wanted to get dressed downstairs, so she bought her clothes downstairs.

She then put on her polo top then her dress and next it was her tights, so I asked her if she wanted to give them a try and she said for me to do them so she then started putting them on and did it all by herself - so I have done a "wow star" for school.

her wow star
I have Evies  PE kit and bookbag by the door (I shall have to try to remember to bring down a pair of socks to put in her bag incase I forget to put her in trousers on PE day) :)

and happy birthday Eileen :)

so many rsvps

I would like to say that I have had so many rsvps that my sms text messages have stopped working :)

Well I have only had one response and that was a "no" "F's great grandmother is 90 and they are having a party for her".

In reality I have only sent nine invitations so far with one acceptance and two declines.

I shall go trough the list in the week with Evie and decide who else to invite (and hopefully I will have had a few more replies by then).

Its back to rushing about again from tomorrow...

reaching the postbox

Yesterday we sent out our first invitations (to my antenatal friends)...

...on our way to the post box I asked Evie who was going to post the invitations.  Was it going to be me or her.  She said that she would do it and I would lift her up :)

So we got to the post box and I asked Evie to see if she could reach it...

...and she could (so there was no lifting needed :)) so I handed her each invitation and told her who it was for and she put it in the box (there were only five to do :)).

We have another one to post this morning, so I will let Evie post that one too on our way to the play date that we postponed earlier in the week.

more excited than Evie

I have booked Evies fifth birthday party :)

Its going to be at a soft play place, as Evie doesnt really join in that much at the parties we have gone to with a disco etc, and we know she will enjoy herself more doing soft play :).

We are now deciding who to invite (and there is a set of twins in her class so I dont want to invite one and not the other :)).

we need a minimum of 16 kids, so we will be inviting our friends kids first and then decide who else to invite after that :).

As its just before Christmas I know that not everyone will be able make it.
