Yeah, hopefully we're done with sickness for the year now after catching things twice.

Aww that's beautiful, I love seasonal outfits like that but I haven't had a chance to get any yet, Halloween is not a big deal over here. When I go to Ireland soon I'm hoping to grab some fun Christmas pyjamas, maybe an elf babygrow or something.

On my way to Liverpool.

Just done the 12-3-30 workout twice while listening to radio one essential mix. Had shower now drinking pineapple and lime smoothie top up with apple and pear juice that I made yesterday.

Went to a fireworks display in a village close to me (New Buckenham). It was great... Hot punch, doughnuts and brilliant fireworks. Kids loved it and so did I.

Nice. We’re off to a fireworks event tonight.

Yesterday I had a rare lazy day. I did some laundry, had a 2 hour nap, walked to the supermarket to pick up wine and chocolate, then sat in the garden with fire pit on drinking my wine and eating chocolate. Was glorious.

Got up early. Had breakfast. Fed the cats. Pre-made lunch for my family. (stuffed mushrooms) Got ready for the day. I just need to do my hair and then we're off out to the in-law's.

Yesterday I went into Bristol to meet a friend for brunch. We then went to the Wildlife Photography 2024 gallery. Then went to the Christmas market for mulled wine and bratwurst.

I got a bit chilly so decided to buy a new jumper.

[Ammi]

…I love the jumper/great choice…..

…I actually just bought a blanket/throw in those colours…are you wearing my blanket…?…

I like Ben's jumper

[Crimson Dynamo]

Boo to any green clothing

[Glenn.]

I’m so hot I’m currently nude on a beach in Gran Canaria

[Niamh.]

Not much, had a lie in, made some scrambled eggs, bacon, toast, mushrooms and fried tomatoes for breakfast

[Jessica.]

Up at 4, sat on the couch in tense contemplation, nap at 7:30, up again at 9, got ready for the day, tidied the sitting room, packed a bag to spend the day at the in-law's, had lunch there - a burger and sweet potato chips, had a lovely espresso, now I'm relaxing while the grandparents occupy the baby.

…’tense contemplation’….?…

[Livia]

Went to the cenotaph as usual, met my late husbands friends for breakfast, lovely to see them all. We used to meet for lunch but I think they're better just being together after the ceremony, have some drinks, a lot probably, swing the lap and pull up a sandbag, kind of thing. Moving and poignant as always.

…ahhhhh, the stage of sitting and beginning to crawl etc……and grandparents saying, really…already…!!!!…it’s all going by so quickly….while you feel as though you haven’t had a full sleep for 6758467 years….

[AnnieK]

Been to local cenotaph as my boy was in the parade. Proud mama moment today. His detachment did great.

Ami he's been crawling and pulling to stand since he was five months old, he's starting to stand unassisted now and is fast as lightning getting around and up and down, cruising holding onto furniture. I'm exhausted. I actually don't mind waking with him at night, he usually goes back to sleep but I want to be in bed for 6 or 7 hours at least, even if I'm not sleeping.

I ate a lot and stayed in the fetal position as I did some online training
