It was a big turning point in our lives last week. Ibolya returned to work, our daily schedule moved to 6.30am starts and 9.00pm finishes, to get everything organised for the children. Lookie started with our childminder Mary and is now almost exclusively on formula milk. I'm getting up for him in the night, taking Friday's off to look after the children and it was Ibolya's birthday on Sunday. What a week! But all the new routines are going pretty well so far.
We also had a really lovely weekend. I got to see all my sisters and most of my brothers in law, nephews and nieces, as the Bennetts were staying with the Hargreaves for the weekend. We went round there for afternoon tea on Saturday and ate the incredible birthday cake Jane had made for Ibolya.
On Sunday, Lookie, Ruby and I went to Roundwood Park while Ibolya spent her birthday morning, doing what she loves and rummaging at Chiswick car boot sale. As always, she returned with a handsome booty including a new shirt (for me), some wicked shoes for Lookie and these nice little pots.
Florrie stayed with us for the afternoon while the Bennett and Hargreaves families went to see the Lion King. Florrie was wonderful to have around and played so well with Ruby.
Kate made a gorgeous birthday cake for Ibolya and there was very little left by the end of the day.
