Parties, picnics and being poorly!

well it's been an eventful couple of weeks since we got back off holiday. After making sure that Grandma & Grandad were back settles at home until they jet off again, Little Leon decided it was time to get back on the social scene so it was time to party.!

Party Time!

It was Cousin Cara's birthday so off they all went to the scout hut and much fun was had by all, they played with a Big Parachute and balls, pass the Parcel and lots of running about!  Of course there was the compulsory cake eating (Little Leon likes that bit the most!) and much fun was had by all! 

mmmm sweetie snack between cakes!

 The week before easter, Leon was fighting off the nasty viral bug that's been doing the rounds, but it eventually got the better of him (despite industrial doses of ibuprofen!!) and his temperature decide to hit three figures and gave mummy and daddy a bit of a scare. Anyway, after a few days all seemed to settle down and the prospect of the Easter bunny visiting seemed to raise his spirits, and he picked up quite a bit. 

Now, the Easter bunny had been busy and laid a trail of eggs at Nostell Priory, and Uncle Tony, Aunty Nic, Jas, Cara, Paul and Helen and the Kids, mummy, daddy & Little Leon all decided to go and have a picnic and find the eggs!

The egg hunting took us passed the play area and of course mummy wanyed to play and the swings and slide so little Leon had to go and make sure she didn't get into any bother! 

we took a picnic and we all sat around and had sandwiches and crisps, oh and cake of course! It soon became apparant that little Leon hadn't fully recovered as he went a lovely shade of grey and looked pretty crap, so we left Jasmine in charge of egg hunting and went back home for snuggles and sleepy.

Saturday morning brought a problem of a different kind, as daddy tried to get out of bed, his back had other ideas and decided to go into spasm, best part of 2 hours later I had finally got out of bad and was in a great deal of pain so decided to gp to A& E where i was told i had damaged the ligaments in my back and had to avoid any heavy lifting and vigorous exercise  (as I had spent the last 30 years avoiding doing this it was not going to be that much of an issue) So i was despatched with drugs in hand and spent the day feeling rubbish, Another visit to a& e a few days later because of no improvement saw me leave with more (stronger) drugs which now seem to be working!  Little Leon was a star giving me a hug when needed and being a good boy. Just to compound the crap week mummy has got tonsillitis, so what a week we're having.

So, next couple of bank hols, weather and health permitting a trip to the seaside or maybe a ride on a Steam Train is in order, Watch this space for more adventures!  

Night Night folks
