Whoever stole my weekend.......please give it back!!

OK ~ so here I am again!! Sunday night ~ the weekend is almost over ~ and I think that someone has sneaked in and stolen another weekend from me!!! Time is flying by and I have absolutely NO control over it!!

We have been busy (as usual!) ~ another round of dance classes and Judo!! The weekly shop ~ which I am sure gets that little bit more expensive every week! Even though I seem to get less for my money ~ exactly how does that work?

I managed to pull a muscle in my back on Thursday ~ getting the little boy I look after out of the carseat!! I cannot even start to tell you how painful it was (not as painful as childbirth ~ but a close second ha ha !!) ~ I couldn't sleep on Thursday night as it was awful and no matter what position I tried to sleep in ~ it made no difference ~ I spent almost the whole night proped up with a big pillow ~ which only helped a bit!! Friday was not a whole lot better ~ so I hauled my butt to the Doctor ~ who prescribed some painkillers ~ and told me not to lift any heavy objects etc (a bit hard when I have to lift children all day ha ha !!). Anyway ~ yesterday was not much better and I had to go to bed for an hour in the afternoon (I know ~ I can hear you all saying ahhhhhhh!!). Thankfully ~ when I woke up this morning ~ I was relieved that it seems alot better!! I feel like a new woman (ha ha !!).

This morning I took Lauren shopping with me ~ and she spotted a dress that she fell in love with ~ and wanted it for her Birthday party dress ~ it is a copy of the dress that Gabriella is wearing below ~ from High School Musical 3!! She looks really sweet in it and I cannot wait to see her wearing it at her party!!

I also bought her a few HSM items that she liked ~ which I managed to sneak in the trolley and have hidden for her birthday!! I had better not tell you what they are ~ as the sneaky little monkey may read this at some stage between now and her birthday!!!

Dan and Lauren also chose their pumpkins today, we usually carve them on 31st ~ during the day and then have them on display outside when we have the Halloween party in the evening!

The children will not be going out trick or treating this year ~ as we are having the party actually on Halloween ~ they are a bit disappointed (although we only knock on a few friends and neighbours!!) ~ I for one am not that sad (I know I am mean!!) ~ last year we got totally soaked and cold and Laurens pumpkins basket split and all her sweets went everywhere ~ so I will be glad to avoid that drama this year.

I have just watched the season 4 finale of Desperate housewives, which was fantastic ~ I was quite sad that it had come to an end, BUT ~ much to my total delight ~ they have put season 5 on straight after ~ the first episode is on at the moment and it is set 5 years in the future!! I love it already!!!

The children are only at school 4 days next week, they have a day off on friday and then the week after is half term ~ so we have some time to do a few fun things!!!

I just hope that the weather holds out ~ I can't be doing with rain all week!
