"You haven't listened to a word I've said, have you?" Always seems like a strange way for my wife to start a conversation with me.

Well, it has been a while since my last proper post.  I made two short ones last month, but they did not really go into the things that we did last month.

So last month, we went to Legoland with some friends, had my wife's birthday, had our street party, went to Cadbury World and have had both my mother and my mother-in-law up to help look after the kids while my wife works.  And in that time, I managed to mow the lawn!

Legoland was as before, a really enjoyable day.  Going with some friends of ours was a great idea, but there was a downside, which was that we left before our friends, and if we had stayed, we would have bumped into two others who we did not know were there.  But, hopefully, we will get to meet up with them sometime.  As for the birthday of my darling wife, I think that she was tempted to ask me to get her a present of my own choice, but the times that I have done so in the past have tended to be nightmares.  So, she got to chose something that she actually wanted.  The Street Party was a great day as well, my mother being up then to help with childcare during the week.  I think she liked it, I know that the kids did.  And of course, the trip to Cadbury World.  My wife and I have been there in the past, but this was before kids.  We decided to take them there last month, an experience that they were not expecting as I did not think that they expected it at all.  I am not sure if they were sad that there as no glass lift, but there was a lot to the factory that we did not get to look into.

Anyway, I am typing while I wait for the kids to get to sleep.  I think that they might have done so, which is great as I am knackered after a hard days work and a hard and taxing weekend.
