This weekend we had a nice time at home, we did a bit of work in the garden tidying up and clearing up leaves.








We then took some pictures of Fidget for a potential Xmas card, it wasn't too successful, here is a preview...

Fidget turned 16 months earlier in the week, so we also counted this photo shoot as her birthday photo...

We also had a walk out to the shops, and picked up something for Fidget from the charity shop, she had great fun composing...

On Sunday we were still feeling full of Christmas anticipation and cheer, so we popped into Lidle to start stocking up on the stolen, and then into IKEA to buy Christmas decorations. We haven't bought decorations before, as we inherited a great set from M's Aunt and Uncle, but now the back room is done, and decked out in green and orange, we (well read I, but M was happy to go along with it) wanted to get something that coordinated. I can't wait to get the tree down from the loft!!

Monday was mummy day, we went to sing and sign and then in the afternoon popped over to see Mush and mini-Mush, which was lovely. Mush had to pop out, so I looked after both of the little cuties. It was a mix of feeding frenzy and wrestling match, as they swarmed on the tub of breadsticks and then Fidget tried to give mini-Mush cuddles, while mini-Mush signed his displeasure quite vigorously.

Last night was pretty bad, Fidget woke up every few hours coughing enough to wake herself. This morning she just didn't seem right, so I didn't take her into nursery. She has spent most of the day sleeping, or having cuddles. I think it is just a bad cold, and with it she is off her food, so she doesn't have much energy at all. Hopefully she will feel better tomorrow.
