Dd was extremely pleased when her friends appeared, would have been even better if we’d actually got our act together and shopped and washed up first! Still, there was tea to drink and food for the kiddies – so the adults ate a little later 😉
Lovely to see K and her two again – very comfortable having them around and K found the missing library dvd! Didn’t do anything overtly educational, although we are talkign about combining resources when we are buying/ making things. We were concentrating on that socialisation thing again. Did notice that we seem to get more noise from dd on her home turf – not so good at sharing her stuff here. Then again, it was mainly her new Chrimble stuff, so maybe she just needs a little more practise with that.
On the downside, ds isn’t desperately well – took him to the docs and came back with antibiotics for a suspected ear infection that is backed up with a bit of a cough. He is not himself at all (although he still made eyes at the doctors receptionist!)
Got the dvd back to the library with 10 minutes to spare, and lovely evening with dd as well. Her last two days at nursery start tomorrow – oh boy. I did get dp to get me some cookie mix and so on with the idea we’d make them for her to take in, but we didn’t get it done today. Lots of talk tonight about tech toys – dd was bought a V tech notebook thing for Christmas and it had to go back as it didn’t work, so now we’ve got the money. She wants a real computer, but the refund won’t quite reach to that, so we’re debating what we think she’d enjoy. Doesn’t have to be educational as such, just something she’ll enjoy. Suggestions in a comments form please.
