Lazy days...

Today was supposed to be house cleaning day but the boys were full of the bounces and couldn't seem to settle. So we all bundled up warm and decided to have fun out in the garden.

We have a trampoline outside as well as a long garden for running around in. I completely recommend getting a trampoline to any and everyone! Even if all you have room for is one of those indoor kiddi bounce things, especially for those of us with special kiddos.

After an hour bouncing around, digging up the wood chips and putting them in black bin bags, then helping daddy dig up and move the paving slabs both boys were calm and happy to sit watching Guardians of the Galaxy with cold hot chocolate - R hates hot drinks but loves hot chocolate hence the cold hot chocolate lol.

Mummy fell asleep as per my own medical issues, so missed all the movie 😲😟 and I LOVE that film. R loves Drax as he feels that Drax is just like him - very literal! Honest watch the film and in the prison break he says metaphors do not go over his head as his reflexes are so fast he would catch them 😀 That there is our R down to a tee.

Now R is upstairs playing in his room and H is sat with daddy playing on his leapfrog Leap Pad. All is quiet and calm - for how long is anyone's guess but we enjoy it whenever it arrives in our house. This allows me time to look at the pet rehoming centres and sigh longingly at them.

Hopefully by the end of the year we can afford a dog, I know they are expensive but oh so loving. The biggest benefit would be to R, as well as H of course. Pets can have a huge huge effect on special kiddos that far out weighs the cost. Pets can teach kids about social skills, love and how to care for something or someone who can't do it without you around.

Hoping tomorrow goes just as well, as they have birthday parties to attend! 😮
