This past week has been a wash out really, Lucas has been poorly with a virus so it has meant practically a whole week indoors. Monday through to Wednesday were pretty much the same; cuddles on the sofa, Disney films while I plied him with plenty of juice and fruit. He started to perk up on Thursday and had a day at Grandma and Grandad’s but was ready for an early night when he came home.
After a good sleep I decided we had to get out for a walk on the Friday, I definitely needed the fresh air so I wrapped him up and we went to the local park. As we walked past the playground he started his excited chattering so I let him have a quick swing then we went and parked up by the squirrels to give them some nuts. He slept the rest of the way home but getting out made me feel so much better; I was getting so lethargic staying the the house all day. That evening I went to a friends house to have a catch up with the lovely ladies who I went to university with and a fun night was had by all.
Saturday was a busy day so I was glad Lucas was feeling more like his normal self. We were looking after his cousin and taking them to see Postman Pat in our local town. It was a free event put on by the council and held in the big Parish Church in the town centre. The show is about 20 minutes long but I thought it was great for a free event and Lucas woke up just in time to catch Postman Pat and Jess. We also had a lovely visit from my friend who is away over Christmas so we had an early festive brunch to exchange our presents (a Santa hat may have even found its way downstairs). It’s fair to say that I was pretty excited by the first present; some snuggle socks but I was totally blown away by the next gift; a gift voucher for us to go to Harry Potter Studio Tours! We are hoping to go some time in the new year so expect to hear lots about that, I am so excited!!
On Sunday the hubby had some work to be getting on with so me and Lucas went off to visit my Nana for the day. It is always lovely and we get looked after; she had even baked some of her famous scones for us and I caught up with the family, all in all a lovely day to round off the week. That is our week that was!

November 27, 2012 at 11:51 pmhow lovely that you got out to see your friends – just the pick up you need after a week of looking after a poorly boy. lovely photos you got very close to the squirrel x
The squirrels at our park are really tame and most of them take the buts out of your hand, I know I shouldn’t probabaly be encoranging the naughty gray squirrels but they are cute! Maybe one day Lucas will stay still and quiet long enough to feel them too x
