Term Begins & Grandparents leave

Posted on January 6, 2009 by Mummy

Arthur did start school today. Grandmama took Arthur to school. Arthur knew that Grandmama and Grandpapa were leaving today while he was at school. This upset him alot and he cried alot. Thankfully he settled down after a while and enjoyed his day at school. He did letters which he was happy about. He was also happy that he gave out his invitations for his party at school.

Back to school!

Posted on January 5, 2009 by Mummy

Mummy sent Arthur to school with Grandmama today. Except… school was closed. Arthur was upset that it was closed (which is a good thing as he did not originally want to go). Mummy accidentally assumed that school started on the Monday and not the Tuesday! Mummy is very embarrassed.

An unusual Sunday

Posted on January 4, 2009 by Mummy

After church Mummy, Grandmama, Grandpapa and Arthur went to collect Daddy so that we proceed to lunch except that the car refused to start again. So we did not end up going to lunch but we stayed and ate at home.

Christmas

Posted on December 25, 2008 by Mummy

Arthur was every so disappointed this morning because “Santa didn’t come!”. So Mummy took Arthur back to his bedroom to check and found his stocking was overflowing. He must have stepped over the present that could not fit in the stocking and had fallen on the floor! He was so excited when he realised he had lots of presents from Santa.

When Arthur went downstairs he found that Santa ate the mince pie and drank the Sherry but the reindeer did not eat all the carrot and a small piece was still left. Arthur was worried for the reindeer. Then he saw a huge present and was ever so excited. It was a marble game – rollercoaster! I think that’s a new word!

He received so many presents, he actually was tired of opening them.

We celebrated Christmas together eating and opening presents. It was so nice to see Arthur so excited about it all.

Merry Christmas

Posted on December 25, 2008 by Mummy

Arthur wishes everyone a Merry Christmas. Arthur was sad there was no little church at Midnight mass.

He cannot wait for Santa to come tonight and he left Santa a mince pie, a glass of Sherry and a carrot for the reindeer!

Santa Time

Posted on December 20, 2008 by Mummy

We all met at the farmer’s Christmas Market which was really small. However that was just the begining of the day because today Arthur went to see Santa at the Home of Rest for Old Horses. Santa gave Arthur a present for Christmas and Arthur told Santa that he wanted Drums for Christmas. We then had tea and Christmas log. Arthur even had a second helping of Christmas log!!

We then went Christmas shopping for presents in town. Yeah!

Busy Day

Posted on December 12, 2008 by Mummy

Arthur had such a busy day today. It started as you know with Amirah sleeping over. Then off to school (while Amirah went to visit her Mummy). From school it was straight to the Mums & Tots in Onchan where they had a Christmas Party. It was dress up… and unlike what you would expect there were no nurses and doctors in lab coats but fairies, mini santas, shepperds and Arthur was an elf! Santa even popped round for a visit. From there a quick stop home and straight to Ballet.

For a treat Mummy, Daddy & Arthur had a KFC picnic at home. We laid down a picnic blanket in the sitting room and had a wonderful winter picnic.

Edinburgh

Posted on November 19, 2008 by Mummy

We went to see the Castle today. Arthur thought it was really big. He really enjoyed it at first (though he did get tired of it by the end of it). Arthur was even given a badge of Bruce the Great (twice). Arthur was made up with his badge (he did not realise he was given two).

Arthur slept really well. He slept the whole night through. Perhaps it was because he thought it was his cot (it was identical to the one he has in Staines) or perhaps it was the familiarity of his baby bedding or simply that he was in the same room with Mummy & Daddy. Or maybe just worn out!!
