My Village street fair Part 2

So if you read my first part you would have known there was fireworks and live music, So me and my husband and the kids all went back up there at 6:30pm, As we got there the place was filling up already but we found somewhere to sit, So my husband went and got us some drinks I normally don't drink alcohol but I decided to have a cider anyway.
As we was waiting for my husband to get back with the drinks my son and daughter was dancing to the music that had just started.

My daughter found some of her school friends when we was up there so she went off to play with them and my son kept trying to go to her so he could play, I think my husband must have lost weight the amount of running after him he had to do.

Soon the live band started up and everyone started to get very loud and to my surprise my youngest was really looking like she was having fun even though she was in her pushchair.

My son really started getting into the music and finally sat down and stopped trying to run off to play.

By about 8-8:30 the band stopped for the fireworks, they were not as good as last years but they still has the kids mesmorized by them even my youngest was just staring up at them, When they stopped the band started up again and didn't stop till about 9:30 by this time my son was getting tired and decided he wanted to go home by dragging me to the direction our flat is, so we headed off home, we all had a really great time I just hope next years is better than this years one.

Daisy Roots Shoes

I was kindly sent two pairs of Daisy Roots shoes to try out, I got to chose what ones I wanted and it was a very hard choice theirs so many to chose from, I finally went for a pair for my son called A star is born and went for size 2-3 years there shoes go up to 4 years depending on the style you want,

The next pair I found even harder to chose and I finally went for Pony, For my girl and the size I got was 0-6 months, I have found it hard to get a pair of shoes to fit my daughter but these fitted her really well and didn't make her feet look huge, The pair my son got also fitted him very well,

Daisy Roots use Eco friendly leather that's safe for toe suckers, The soft breathable leather allows healthy foot growth, They use vegetable dye so theirs no nasty chemicals and they have a safe anti slip sole perfect for when your little one starts to walk around.

The shoes have no laces to do up as they have elastic to keep them on.
If you would like to buy a pair and I think they are a must have for any little one you can buy them from here
They also have a facebook page and that can be found here

Silent Sunday

My Village street fair

Every year in September my village hold a street fair, This year so far its not as good as it has been, They normally have loads of fair ground rides including things like dodgers but this year all the have is a bouncy castle and a small kids ride.

Aswell as rides they have lots of stalls and on one of the stalls I won a bottle of gin and 4 cans of beer after winning that my mum said to me I had to pick her tickets for her so as I was under pressure I picked them carefully and as I opened them I was happy I won a prize for her she got 8 miniature bottles of alcohol, As we was walking round I found a bargain,

All I paid for it was 20p I had seen these in the shops and wanted one for my son so I couldn't turn it down, My daughter also found something she really wanted and that was a My little pony for only 10p, We decided to get something to eat and we had a big choice of food there was a pig roast on for a pork butty or you could have got a burger in a bun or chips so we decided on the pig roast,
Once we had that we decided to head home for a while as later tonight there will be live music till late and a huge firework display and they will have a beer tent and food for everyone to buy when thats on, I will hopefully update later tonight with everything that happens tonight thats if im not to worn out.
Im just keeping my fingers crossed it doesn't rain for the fireworks as we have had on off rain most of the day.

Ballyhoo Toys Ltd, Shape sorting clock

The lovely people over at Ballyhoo Toys sent me this really nice shape sorting clock for my kids to test out, The clock is suitable for 3+ years and all the edges on the shapes are rounded off so they wont hurt your child, The clock is made out of wood and has a raised bit on the back so it doesn't lie flat.

Since this arrived in the post both my kids have been fighting over who's going to play with it, So my daughter at school my son has had all the time to play with it and everywhere he has gone he has taken the clock with him, As he is only 29 months I need to give him full supervision while he plays with it, So when he has been playing we have been doing some of these extension activities that is suggested on the back of the packaging, For example naming the shapes,

With my son not being a big talker I thought he might have problems But I have managed to get him to say star, And when I ask him to point to a shape he does it,
So overall this toy is great for helping your children learn and with its bright bold colours it makes it very eye catching for little ones.

My daughter also had a turn on this clock, She didn't need help putting the shapes in or knowing what shapes what, But it is helping her to tell the time as I would set the time and then ask her to tell me the time.
If you would like to buy this toy or any other toy that Ballyhoo Toys sell you can do that from here
Ballyhoo Toys also has a facebook page where you can find all there latest information and you can find that here https://www.facebook.com/BallyhooToys?ref=ts

Oh what an easy week I have (NOT)

So my daughter goes back to school this week, So I've had to try and get my kids back into there sleeping routine they had before school broke up, Not an easy task I got my kids up at 7:30am 30 minutes later than they would be up on a school day and my daughter was moaning she was tired.
Its been a long day today constant moaning shes tired but I have put her to bed at the time she was going before the school holidays and shes asleep.
But still your probably wondering why I think I don't have an easy week, So read on and you will see.

On to my son he has decided that he wants to start using the potty and toilet so potty training has begun, The problem we have is the potty we have wouldn't stop his wee from going everywhere so we have be searching long and hard for a potty that will do the trick, We are yet to find one, So far my boy hasn't done any wees but he has done one poo on his potty and a poo on the big toilet, He has clearly been watching his sister use the toilet as he holds onto the seat to stop him falling down.

Now onto my youngest daughter.

Now my little girl is teething shes not in pain and I think its because of her baltic amber teething necklace, but she is dribbling loads and going through no end of bibs so I think I will have to buy some more sometime soon, To top it off shes showing all the signs that shes ready for weaning, Now the fun begins.

Why does all this happen at the same time It would have been much easier if only one thing happened at a time but then thats life and we have to take everything thats thrown at us.
