Milo Starts school

In the midst of having baby number three, we had to do the awful school shop during the holidays! 
Never fun, EVER!

Having just had a baby, a tetchy 6 year old and an excited to be starting school 4 year old, this year was no exception!

Having previously briefed  Rufus that if his old school shoes still fit he wouldn't be getting new ones, obviously they fit, tantrum ensues! 

Mental search through next and m and s for the right sizes we actually managed! ( just about!) 


I just can't believe they are both in school and. That Milo is even old enough to be there! Last 4 years have flown by! 



 Well done Milo, 1st week of school finished! 
Although he already doesn't want to go back!!

The latest addition to our clan, and probably the last (😥) 
Of course it was the usual induction malarkey, before or gorgeous baby boy made his entrance into the world! 

Ezra this is your Daddy thinking he was going to catch you! Not that he has ever made it this end during a labour!  
As boys this blog is mainly for you, I won't go into gory details! 

Very shortly after this picture our 3rd boy was welcomed into the world! 


Ezra me and you had an emotional week in hospital consisting of baby blood tests, canulas and light beds! 
You were very brave, mummy wasn't. 




We did have a little laught though, making hats out of pill cups for you!


We finally brought you home to your beautiful brothers! 



You have settled into the mad house ,and it's like you have always been here! 

Welcome Ezra ( Ezzy bezzy bum chops)

Trips to A and E


Hospital Trips in a week

We were doing quite well until recently with our trips to the hospital, people always told me you might as well live at the hospital when you are a mother of boys.

Milo has always been under the pediatrician as he has a small hole in his heart, but these visits are not due to the idiotic antics of small boys!!

One evening a few months again, whilst putting the boys into bed, Milo starts making the most horrendous gaspy, chocking sound. I instantly throw his over my knee and give him some hard slaps on the back. After whart one can only descibe as an eternity, he gasped and the the following words came from his rather limp and frightend body "dont worry! its gone down"

After initially feeling immense relief, i ask him "whats gone down?" "the penny i was playing with"
I still have no idea whee the penny came from, but also why he took it to bed with him.

After a discussion with a few people, the nurse from the medical centre near us to, we decided i better take him to A and E. 

After a few hours, we had been the xray department and to much relief the penny had passed the 'Danger Zone'


You can see the offending penny on the right!! 

You think we would be done for the week right?! 

Wrong!!

On the lovely 'relaxed and organised' school runs, we were in the car all ready to go when Rufus closes his own door. But in doing so he puts his hand in the door joint and pulls in to on his hand! The door even stayed closed! 
Uuuggh, as I legged it round his hand instantly started turning blue and looked like sausages. 

Cue, another trip to A and E! Luckily on both trips we have got away with no real injuries. 


I would like to leave A and E for a while now thanks boys! It's not good for my health! Xxxx
