The last week was the first week back to work for mummy and daddy. That meant the kids were back to creche and we were back to our normal week routine. Weekends are our family time. We are trying to fit as much in as we can at the weekend. (other than cleaning)
The weather wasn’t the best. It was dull and rainy. At the end of this week we are actually due the first snow of the year. I hope that’s true because Chloe has never seen snow before. On Sunday we took a trip to the local shopping centre because I needed a few bits and pieces. We had a lazy morning and later breakfast. Instead of having the usual breakfast, we enjoyed a Strawberry and banana smoothie each in the Whitewater Shopping Centre in Newbridge and some light snacks. I got Matthew a new book from Julia Donaldson called “The smartest giant in town”. He deserved that because he slept in his own bed all night the night before. (He tends to come into our bed in the middle of the night every night)
When we all finished our smoothies, Matthew spotted a Peppa Pig ride on the lower level. So we took the lift downstairs and the kids had a go on Grandpa pigs boat and Daddy pig’s car. Maybe more than once. They really enjoyed it. After that it was a bit of shopping in Penneys/Primark. I needed new socks and hubby needed new work trousers. Matthew was delighted with himself carrying out his own little basket with my socks in it.
Sounds like a lovely weekend, we too try to do as much in the weekend as possible. I’m looking forward to the weather warming up a bit so we can get out and about a bit more! #livingarrows Xx

She is obsessed with peppa pig and she never watches it that much. Peppa was one of her first word and I never introduced it to her. HA how odd.
We had snow last year but only a bit. Fingers cross. It’s due at the end of this week for UK and Ireland. x
Lovely captures Janine. Harry has never seen snow either and Amelia hasn’t seen it since she was about 9 months old. Shows how long ago its been since we had snow here! I hope it does snow haha! Love the photo of Chloe on the peppa pig ride #LivingArrows
This sounds like such a simple but lovely trip. Our children love smoothies – and that Julia Donaldson book is one of their favourites! x
