Our Family: Scrapping/sanding/staining :)

Yes all of that has been on my agenda that last few weeks. K has been out of town to London and got home last Thurs. While he was gone I was sanding and staining the woodwork in our front room. G (Kś sisters husband) came and put the laminate flooring down in the front hall and front room last week Kś dad helped too. Oh it is nice to finally have flooring down and not just the floor boards. Then we had to scrape off some of the old wallpaper and put new stuff up.

Between the kids in school the first week K was gone and then they have been on holiday the last week and this week. And working in the front room plus getting a bunch of clothes ready to take to the NCT sale in Skipton last week I was very busy. Have not had much time to do really anything else.

This week is still busy just not as busy as last week. I have school tomorrow night and have started tutoring another student in my class. She came today for about 2 hours. little T was so cute as we were trying to study he kept coming up and asking me to read his book.

T sais quite a few words now. After I change his nappys he loves to take the nappy bag to the bin and when I gave it to him the other day he said ¨tantu¨ it was so surprising to hear him say it! :) he also sais ohdear, ohboy, ohwow, dandad (for grandad) daddy, mummy, pss (please) wawa (water) boot (book) bir (bird) gamy (grammy) dow (down) and of course his ohhhh for everything else. :)

The kids are enjoying being on holiday. They have all had colds. K came home with a cold so of course we all got it then as it was different germs to what we are used to. T still has a cold but hoping it goes in the next day or so. They have been playing out as much as weather permits. today was sleeting/hailing again. we have had so much of that this year. looking forward to warmer weather. :)

We hope to get the front room painted before the weekend and then once K gets the ethernet ports terminated in the front room we can move the computers in their in get the plastering done in the back room and get the curtains up and the office stuff out of the back room and have a proper family/living/dining room. :)

Well I will end with some pictures.

I came into the back room and found T up on the chairs ever so pleased with himself playing with the trains. Grandad had just been here playing with him while I was at the shop and I think that gave him the idea to play again. :)
