Day Two Thousand Three Hundred and Seventeen

Saturday 29th December 2018 - Today we had a well-needed pyjama day and Daddy put the cot up for the new baby 

Day Two Thousand Three Hundred and Sixteen

 Friday 28th December 2018 - Today was yet another Christmas adventure - back to Southend to see Levi and Ferdi again. Grandma and Grandad took us to the soft play in Adventure Island and we got to play in the arcades too!

We went back to Grandma and Grandad's house where we played cards

Ed taught us all how to play cheat 

I was having too much fun playing but Mummy managed to convince me to have my photo taken next to Grandad' christmas tree 

I even gave her a cheeky smile

Day Two Thousand Three Hundred and Fifteen

 Thursday 27th December 2018 - Today we went to Grandma Catherine and Grandad John's house where we saw out cousins Lois, Luna, Issy and James

There were even more christmas presents to open 

And we all had a lovely lunch.

It was great to see my Grandma again 

And to play games with my cousins 

Day Two Thousand Three Hundred and Fourteen

  Wednesday 26th December 2018 - Today was Boxing Day and I helped Mummy set the table with placecards (that I'd written everyone's names on with my curly writing) and crackers too

Grandma and Grandad stayed over and a bit later in the morning, Mel, Laszlo, Levi, Ferdi, Ed and Amy all arrived for lunch. I was so happy to see my cousins again, who had come all the way from Budapest 

We had a delicious lunch of cold meat, mash and pickles - my favourite!

After lunch, we went for a walk up to Highams Park lake and I tried out my new bike. I was brilliant on it straight away

When we got to the lake, we fed a big pack of petit pois to the hungry ducks!

And when we got home, we had all the desserts and time to play and have cuddles with our cousins before they left to go back to Grandma and Grandad's house in Southend. I was sad but Mummy said we'll see them again very soon

Day Two Thousand Three Hundred and Thirteen

Tuesday 25th December 2018 - At last.. it's Christmas day! We woke up and Father Christmas had been and filled our stockings with treats and surprises. And I had a new bike. Exactly the bike I wanted, with coloured spots and a purple bottle holder

I got lots of other great things too

 We went downstairs for breakfast and gave Esme her present - a new sparkly green collar with a star-shaped tag with her name on it 

 We played with our new toys, ate lollipops and watched tv 

 While Mummy set the Christmas table and Daddy started making the lunch 

 Before long, Grandma and Grandad had arrived and it was time to open our presents. I got this lovely dress from Mummy and Daddy, the book for rebel girls from Grandma and Grandad, a dolly and a pony too 

We had prawn cocktail and a roast with turkey, beef and ham 

And Mummy took this beautiful photo of me at the table 

After lunch, it was time to play and relax in front of the tv 

 And we played LOL top trumps too 

What a great day. Merry Christmas everyone! 

Day Two Thousand Three Hundred and Twelve

Monday 24th December 2018 - Today was Christmas eve. The presents were wrapped and under the tree, the shopping done and we were all ready for Christmas 

In the afternoon, we went to Winchester Road church (where I go to Rainbows) for their pop-up nativity 

The ;day told the Christmas story and we had to search for numbered boxes which had different nativity figures in them. I found number one! 

We got to choose who we dressed as and naturally I chose to be an angel 

Before bed, Mummy gave us our Christmas matching pyjamas, which had fairy lights on them 

Mummy and Daddy hung the Christmas branch over the table ready for our lunch tomorrow 

We put a mince pie, some milk and some carrots outside the front door for Father Christmas and his reindeers, hung up our stockings and fell straight to sleep 

It wouldn't be long before Father Christmas arrived... 

Day Two Thousand Three Hundred and Eleven

Sunday 23rd December 2018 - After a long time in the supermarket getting all our Christmas food, we went home and did some Christmas baking

 We made melting snowman gingerbread cookies

 And christmas pudding teacakes!

And we decorated the christmas cake Daddy made with our christmas advent calendar toys

Day Two Thousand Three Hundred and Ten

Saturday 22nd December 2018 - Today Mummy and Daddy had got us tickets to go and see Room on the Broom. So this morning I read it to Daddy before we left 

 We went with Juni and Robin too and their Mummy and Daddy 

 We really enjoyed it and had a bag of sweets each in the theatre too 

We all walked through china town and found somewhere to go for noodles and then Juni's Daddy bought us all a giant cookie on the way home 

In the evening, Mummy and Daddy went out to a Christmas party up the road. Look how big our baby brother has got!

 Mummy and Daddy were very very proud of me 

 In the afternoon, Ira and I went to Nancy's house to celebrate her 5th birthday. We played games and ate cake 

 And had a disco

We all enjoyed dancing and playing musical statues 

We stayed until it was almost bedtime and stumbled back home full of sugar and excitement with Juni and Robin

The hours quickly hurry by

And speed and rush and whizz so fast

It seems as if the clocks all fly"
