WE ARE PROUD PARENTS

OK so let me just say a BIG SORRY for not posting much over the last few weeks its been some what up and down full of highs and lows not to mention a visit from MR SNOTTY NOSE COLD!

So where to begin Hmmm...Well after sustaining a pretty nasty ankle sprain during a netball match which required a trip to A&E for an xray to be sure there was no other damage I am pleased to report that I'm on the mend and have returned to full training and in fact played my first real match Saturday just gone WHOOP WHOOP! Although we lost by a couple of goals and the second half of the match being some what pushy despite half the team playing with injuries we played very well and I'm proud of all DOLPHINS 3....WELL DONE LADIES

OK so that's my starter next can some one tell me if they have ever experienced problems with reporting a lost bank card? Can someone tell me have you ever waited longer then 3-4 weeks for a replacement to then insist on picking it up at a branch of your choice? Has anyone else had bank charges for payments that have been refused to find there was no reason for a refusal to then be told it must of been a computer error? I'm sure many of you have had your fair share of banking problems and been pushed to limits beyond acceptance...Well this is whats happened to me over the past few weeks and needless to say I've not been impressed further more I'm still waiting for an apology I doubt very much I'll get it which is why I'm not holding my breath it'll be totally wasted and since my time and energy has already been wasted. I would just like to say I now have a replacement card and it does work!

OK so some fab news to share Tom has been doing very well at school and in fact over the past few weeks his grades have been climbing last night he told me and his dad that for drama he is now a 7A for science he is a 6A but just missed out on a 7 due to forgetting basic punctuation like capital letters and full stops. Tom has decided he will begin to remember the basics so that he can get that 7. Tom has moved up a group for maths and is about to move up for English he is on course for 7's there but in the mean time he around the 6 mark. History and geography between 6 - 7's . All in all just in this short first term of big school he's gone from 4-5 when he started to 6-7's. The school are very pleased with his progress so far and how well he's settled into secondary school life.
WE ARE SO VERY PROUD OF OUR SON..Well done man cub and we love you very much!

RESULT!! So after Tom started to experience bullying again I am pleased to report that once the school got involved and Tom took control there has been no more bullying going on. It is still early days and Tom is yet to join a self defence club of his liking but so far so good.

MR. SNOTTY NOSE & COLD paid our Jessica a visit, poor Jessica wasn't over ally pleased by her visitor she was completely bunged up a slight temp and quite unhappy. Although her appitite had not totally disappeared she was only eating the bare minimum but drinking plenty of both water/juice and milk so thankfully she lost very little weight during the thick of it. We had several bad nights but thankfully we are now all back to normal sleepy nights. Jessica's speech is really starting to improve daily and a lot of hers words are more clearer. Jessica is starting to get more confident with her climbing as her upper body become stronger she can now climb up onto the sofa a full flight of stairs in fact there isn't anything she wont at least attempt. Jessica has also discovered the art of swinging of obstacles this can only mean one thing let the accidents begin!

Tom and Jessica adore there latest addition to our family GARFIELD AKA GINGER NINJA the cat! The pair of them have so much fun with Garfield. Jessica in particular has so much fun chasing Garfield all over the house. They tease each other, cuddle up to each other and when they are apart they miss one another. Miss Crackers however is still Jessica's friend mind. Its obvious that there friendship has changed and moved to another level. Jessica and crackers still play but its much more calmer then when she was a kitten.

Last but not least for the first time ever I've made a start with the Xmas shopping we've already almost completed getting Jessica her Xmas presents but are yet to decide on the perfect birthday present she will be 2 yrs old December. We know what we would like to get Tom for his birthday also in December he will be 12 yrs old but are undecided as what to get him for Xmas. Presents for the grandparents/In laws have been sorted as for siblings and nephews again undecided one is 4 the other will be 2 yrs old. Jessica is really excited about going out and finding the perfect gift for her best friend baby Z who will be 1 yrs old next month.

We have all been looking for new decorations for our tree and few new lights for the garden and getting into the spirit of Xmas even me I know I know first time for everything right! You see for those who know me I'm not one for Xmas to be fair if I could just forget about it I would but this year is different this year I'm trying to make a little bit more of an effort this year even I want it to be special. I look forward to sharing our Xmas/birthday moments.

Well I think that's just about it for now I've pretty much covered the highs and lows of the past month. I will of course be back soon with some new video's as well as a picture album all of which I'm half way through creating.

I hope you enjoy my latest blog cheers all x x x
