Ignore the mess for just now. We do have stickarounds to go up too but couldn't find them and was desperate to get the piccies up. The room is now in position. Just operation Clean up to be done.

Tuesday's Day Out.
Hello
We went to a puppet show at the Storytelling Centre. It was Red Riding Hoods Magic Purse. Mummy had seen the show at a nursery and we all went. It was a great show and Murray loved it. Then Daddy took us on a long long walk to St James Centre where we had lunch and then we walked along Princes Street. Eilidh got her Brownie Uniform from the guide shop.
We then had a lazy hour before heading for swimming and having dinner.
Mummy and Daddy put us to bed and then took their bedroom to pieces.

We then went to See Mr Bean's Holiday It was really funny and weliked it. We then tried to go bowling but it was a 90 minute wait.
We saw Granny and Grandad Barnes who were back from their holiday to Peebles.

April Fools
Poor Eilidh spent all morinng trying to trick Mummy and Daddy into April Fools Jokes. She had no success. However daddy told her that someone was running down the drive with her bike she was out the front door like a shot and not happy with the realisation that it had been a joke.
Daddy tried to play one on Grandad C but it sort of backfired. So we'll keep it for another time.

Weekend
What a weekend.
Mummy's back's really painful and if she sits down she can't stand up again. So we've been out on walks and everything so she can get mobile and things are fine until she sits down again.
Anyway, yesterday we went to Dancing then Daddy and Murray went to Pizza Express and ordered lunch ready for Eilidh and Mum arriving. Of course that was the day that Eilidh's class ran late.
In the afternoon daddy and the children headed down to Crammond for a cycle. Uncle Chris and his brood joined them there. Mummy hosted a candle party, which despite the low number attending she made lots of sales.
After that was a swim session followed by a leisurely dinner and straight to bed when we got home.
Today, we went to tesco and then had a quick bite. Murray helped daddy clean out the rabbit hutch as Mummy can't bend. Then we hit the shops to test beds. So next Wednesday see's the arrival off their new bed with a HARD mattress. Then we popped up to see Granny and Grandad. Mummy finally got her long awaited shot of Grandad's new car. It's an automatic. So she's decided to drive in Florida now she knows how easy it is to drive. Wonder if she'll drive us to Sarasota when we go to visit Auntie Caca and Uncle Chris. We'll tell you come the end of July.
After dinner we went for a cycle again as the weather is so nice. So hoping the weather keeps nice for the rest of the holidays.

End of the Rainbow
Eilidh left Rainbow's today. She got tied up in streamers with another girl and then they had to breakfree to go to Brownies. That's the end of an Era but she's had lots of fun and continuing in the Guiding path to Brownies. We'll be out busking to buy her uniform. Hehe.

Flamenco
We went to watch Eilidh's Flamenco and Ballet class this morning but forgot the camera but have managed to get these pictures from daddy's phone. We did get some video clips too, so hope to download that as soon as we can.
She's doing great but she needs some castanets. Maybe the easter bunny will oblidge as they are £15 each.
Eilidh's Dancing
We're off to watch Eilidh's dance classes today. Looking forward to seeing how much she has progressed and how much she has learned in the flamenco class. Watch this space for further updates.

Has it Really been 8 weeks?
It takes me longer to get to the hospital and back than it takes in the appointment.
Well Murray's vision in his left eye has improved greatly that the patches are reduced to 2 hours a day. He also did very well with his checks and was chatting away to the orthopist which is a huge improvement with him. Am totally stunned at the patches having worked as I really thought that it would be a lot longer. But hey ho you never know.
We're back on the 18th May for another check up.
Thanks for all the good wishes as they helped. Here's to next time being just as good.

Awww
Awwww look, It's Eilidh at one day old. Just found it and scanned it in. She looks like she's got her finger in her ear lol. She was just 5lb 4oz at that point.
Ballet Exam
Eilidh's ballet exam will take place on the 5th or 6th of June. We have extra practices in May on Sunday's for it. OMG my wee girl is doing her exam for RAD.

May be Biased but.....
Not the easiest thing to edit but Here's a copy of Murray's picture. Isn't he a sweetie?
Ill House
EIlidh was poorly this week. She had a bad cold. So daddy took the day off (booo screamed mummy) and looked after her while Mummy went to work.
Mummy isn't too well now but Murray has a cough.
Not much news from us this week

Picture
Just found this picture of Eilidh. How Angelic did she look when she was 3? I can't get over how short her hair is and how young she looks. Awww Those were the days when she wasn't so cheeky ;-)
Murray's Immunisations
On Friday Murray had his preschool booster jags. We didn't tell him and when we got there he wasn't too happy to be told what was happening. He then shouted when he got his 2 jags. One of his arms is a bit red and puffed up but his behaviour has been dreadful. He's been more disagreable than his sister ever is. We've both been getting close to loosing it with him as he was such a nightmare. Every little thing was just stupidly blown out of proportion by him.
Hopefully this afternoon will be easier. I'm wishing lol.

Eilidh's Photographs
I don't think Sir David Attenborough has anything to worry about when it comes to Eilidh's Photograph taking skills ;-)

School Project
The first school project came home. We'd been expecting houses but we got either a space buggy or a rocket. Eilidh chose a space buggy and off we went saving the junk to create Princess Glitter the Space Buggy.
Murray helped a wee bit too with the painting.
We have a satallite dish and everything on it. Eilidh painted most of it and Murray helped with the wheels. Here's hoping she's done well.
With me Junk!

Star Chart
With Murray now needing to wear a patch, Elaine made him a star chart. Looks much better in real life, but he helped to decorate and it's lovely and bright. 2 Stickers already too. WHOOOOOOOO
The Second Cake
This is the cake for the actual day. The first cake went down very well at the childminder's house and all children (and adults) were satsified. Hope the same happens with this cake.

The First Cake
Mummy's made the first of Eilidh's birthday cakes. This cake is for Elaine's house. Doesn't it look scrummy? Eilidh and Murray will find out tomorrow at Elaine's house.

Murray's Eye Appointment
We've been to the hospital. I thought it would be a straight forward simple appointment but it's starting to look like his left eye is quite weak so we're onto patches. He's not very happy about it but it has to be done. We're going back in 8 weeks time too.

Update
I've just realised this hasn't been updated for a while.
We're all back to normal here. Elidh back to school. Murray back to nursery.
We have some really good news on Murray. He was measured on the 9th of October. He's grown 4cm's since then which for us is fantastic news. He's still smaller than the majority of his friends but to have grown so much in a short space of time is just great news. Only another 5cm's means he'll manage a lot of the rides in Florida. Lets see how he gets on at his sight test later this month.
11 days to Eilidh's birthday. She's so excited. Nearly 7. Means she's getting grown up too.
24 weeks and 4 days until our holiday too. Kids are so excited. And Murray is getting excited that he knows he'll go to school after that. I think he's more excited at getting a school lunch!!!!
