Currently: Eating Waffles!!! ]Well, what a fab night Singalonga Abba is!!! We managed to get the two hesitant chaps into blonde wigs - our other friend was thoroughly enjoying wearing a long blonde wig, and was waving at anyone who looked at him as he drove along!!! There weren't that many people dressed up at the show though, but the minute the music started, everyone was up and dancing, singing along!! Even our hesitant chaps were up and singing and had to admit they had a fabba night!!!
Today we have to pack DS's bag as he is going on a weeks activity with the school. There is a huge difference on how you go about this same activity with your children. With the first child, I carefully went through the list of things to take, and went out to buy things we were lacking. I spent hours labelling every item of clothing, and going through with her which clothing was for which activity. When she returned after the week, she had worn the new tracksuit we had bought every single day, all the other carefully labelled clothes were still folded in her bag!!!
When second child did same activity week, we roughly went through the list, labelled a few things, and folded it carefully in the bag, going through which outfit was for which activity. Again, the favourite outfit was worn for most the week!
So packing for third child involves a quick glance at the list, writing the name on one or two items, and chucking it all in any available bag!!!
