LIFE WHILE IN CHINA I wish you had filmed William getting everyone wet, makes a change from Matthew soaking me!!! Looks like Andy was enjoying his self with the stickers as well.Its nice the hotel puts things on for the kids.
LIFE WHILE IN CHINA Thank you for the Mothers Day message, made my day! Dad came home from work last night & saw the balloon & plant I bought for Nan, & thought I'd bought it for myself!!
I hope you have a great Mothers Day too.
Well done Thank you Lindsay and the boys.
I do hope matthew's arm is less painful and William has been able to go to Nursery! I shall see Rachel tomorrow, so it is lovely to see you today.
Hope the bumps don't hurt! Glad you found some good sweeties and had fun cleaning the car with Mr Lv. Have a lovely birthday on SundayLots of love from Nanny Sylvia.xx
LIFE WHILE IN CHINA NEVER MIND THE SHOES, LOOKS LIKE JON HAS BEEN THERE!! WHEN HE RECORDED ONE OF THEIR ALBUMS REMEMBER ME SAYING HE HAD A LIFE SIZE COW IN THE STUDIO, BUT YOU HAVE HORSES INSTEAD!! YES I KNOW ITS FOR THE NEW YEAR!!!
Shoes!!!! (Lisa) I have just added photo's of shoe market, they are not great!! Every time I tried carefully to take a picture a member of staff came over to see what shoes I wanted!!
Shoes!!!! We are going back to the indoor market and I am going to try and take photo's for you Lisa!!! As soon as I saw that floor my first thought was of you!!!!! Seem to have all sizes I noticed so you may be in luck!! I am still on the hunt for the silk green pj's for Connor!!
transfer Omg I'm jealous! Yes pictures please! I bet it was all lovely too.... The Chinese are really petite though so I'd probably have to just dribble!! Loving the blog though, keep them coming!! X
Settled in Hi Becca, It's lovely to hear from you!!! Matthew is slowly getting settled at school. There is a lot of home work which he is not keen about but he is leaning so many different things compared to UK. I think we are all adapting to the early morning starts! William, is William! Making friends with all that stop to play or talk to him! He has got a lovely bond with our driver. I would love to say it is the food making them grow but it's not! William will try anything but Matthew is......lets just say a little un willing to try anything that is new or looks different!! I am sure we will get there, just taking a lot longer than I thought!! Hope you and Will are ok! Speak soon xxxxxxx
WOW!! OMG it sounds like you are having everything thrown at you all at once lol. I hope you are all still enjoying yourselves though. And brown sauce, I bet you're the best wife in the world lol. Lets hope it all settles down warms up soon for you :-) xxx
It does feel a lot like that!! Today was just a whole new experience though and I am amazed I found my way back home!! We are enjoying most of it (hated the medical!!) and yes, think gold star for me for finding the sauce, I am a good wife!!! xxx
