Half term

 Mummy made Molly's bed longer, no longer a toddler bed, she had to change the furniture around, it's still a girly room. On Tuesday we all went to Dunelm and Molly chose a new quilt cover with unicorns on, she was very happy. Since September and starting school she has changed so much.

We had Will on a sleepover Tuesday night, he's not wanted to come for a while, we got him a new set of books, we gave him book one and two, he does love to read. We had fish and chips for tea, all treat for Will, and hot chocolate later, he stayed up to watch bake off with us, a later bedtime, its half term.
Mummy came with Molly and George on Wednesday, we stayed inside most of the day, after a late lunch hubby, mummy and Will went to Fort Nelson to see the Walking with Giants, now on show, these were created for the D Day landing 100 year celebrations. Will wore his combats, he loves everything military, and loved wondering around them at the lower levels. We had planned for all of us to go, it had rained all day, we knew there would be loads of puddles, so I elected to stay home with Molly and George, in hope we can book a spot before the end of the year, it is very popular.
Hubby made a red velvet cake, which is Will's favourite cake, he uses vegan cream cheese so Molly and George can eat some, this time he left just two layers, normally he makes four, this was better as too much of the filling becomes a bit sickly. The children had two slices each, his cakes never last too long. 



Molly had a sleepover on Wednesday, she was good as always, if slightly confused for her bedtime as the evening became dark much earlier, she sleeps in our room on a small bed, she snuffles whilst asleep, Lilly spent the night on her bed, Will now sleeps downstairs in our spare room again with Lilly for company. I took Molly home at lunchtime. I was back with the children just after teatime so mummy could have a meal with some school mums, so I did the bedtime routines, we have not had George this time, as mummy wants him to settle and be calm going back to school next week. 

We have seen loads of the children and daughter, sadly on one visit daughter came across a car on it's roof, the occupants were out and safe, but Molly saw it and has been asking loads of questions, daughter was shook up, it was just around the corner from where we live. I did drive Molly past the spot and we decided they got back into the car and drove home, because the daddy could fix the car, hopefully that will bring closure to Molly. 

The Traitors has been brilliant TV this series, I was worried because we knew so many people, normally we have no idea who anyone is, the end of the semi final has thrown up a good line of thought, Joe is on to them, and then I wonder about Nick, he said he would align himself with who he thought was traitors and he is very chummy with Joe, is there going to be a twist in the final. Alan has played a  brilliant game, only Joe noticed his behaviour at the last round table, his red face shone out. Also the final of Bake-off is next week, we don't watch much TV, but these two have both been entertaining.
