Our Halloween weekend has been fun - Jonny took the day off tomorrow so we went to W5 -(science centre and Harrison's favourite place - we had a great time!)

The wonder of learning!!

Then tonight we had a fancy dress party at Auntie Sharon's house - we had a great time!

I dressed as my niece Ruthie - she is 12 and has her own unique style!!!!

Micah! - he was dressed as a Mummy!

Harrison with Granny Wilma

Micah with Nana

Punpkin bowling

The Hokey Kokey!

That's what it's all about!!

Here are some photos of one of our afternoons at the park this week - the weather has been lovely!!

Also Harrison had a school trip to the library - he had a great time and even performed Baa baa black sheep!

Poor Micah has 'slap cheek' - it's a virus with a very angry rash! He doesn't seem too bothered by the rash but he hasn't been sleeping great!
Hope it clears up soon!

This week has been a much better week - Harrison has been sleeping better and has been in much better form! Both boys have coughs though but not too bad - we were playing musical beds last night!!! Not actually sure how much I slept but probably not enough!!! Harrison is still really enjoying school - I glad that he is at the wee school he is at - there are only 14 in his class and there is a real family feel! I had a chat with his teacher last week about how bright he seems to be - what I like is that at school the focus is play and even though Harrison is obviously clever he plays the same as everyone else. Speaking of Harrison he now knows the 2, 5 and 12 (!!!!) times tables!, and he watches the weather everyday to find out what temerature is in Belfast! We were talking about what he would like for Christmas and I suggested a watch (he can tell the time - including the 24 hour clock - crazy!!) but he said "no mum - can I have a phone" uuummm no!!!. Then he asked for a Sat nav!! Athough I think we might get him a DS - second hand! He 's definitely an unusual 3 year old but he is generally happy and funny!!
Micah is great - he has been clapping and waving all week which is really cute - I have to get video of him! I think he is teething as he has been quite restles! He is very vocal and will copy sounds - he says Mum, mum, da da , ba ba, ga ga and AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! He is crazy about cardboard and paper - and I frequently have to wrestle it out of his hands (or mouth!!)

We ordered a new sofa (wow) we have never had a new ummm.... anything before so I am excited about that - it comes in about 5 weeks!
The jewellery is going well - haven't made any money yet but I have quite a few chances to sell it in the next few weeks! The challenge is having enough money to buy more supplies while I am waiting for payment!!

We went to Mcdonalds yesterday - Harrison and Abi had a ball!!

This was at Pa's (Jonny's dad) birthday last week

This last 2 weeks has been a bit crazy - I have had a wierd virus thing that brought me out in a rash and then very violent itching! I had been feeling fluey - but not so ill that I had to go to bed (I couldn't have had even if I wanted to!!!) Then I started to get really bad joint pain - I couldn't move my neck one day and my wrists the next - it was very odd. Dr said it may have been swine flu but I don't think so - we agreed it was prob some wierd virus. Feeling better now though.
Harrison hasn't been sleeping well this week - he has been waking very early (5am this morning) and because of this his behaviour hasn't been great! He is loving school though and is settling in well! Micah is finally in his own room - he's doing ok, still waking once during the night to feed! He is also trying very very hard to crawl properly - he can get aroung well commando style but you can tell he wants to be up on his knees! He is babbling a lot too - he was saying "blah, blah, blah" the other night when Jonny and I were trying to talk!
Micha and I are going to the Assemblies of God Ireland womens conference tomorrow - hoping it goes ok, just a bit nervous about the journey - it's in Dublin. I'll miss Jonny and Harrison but looking forward to it!
Micah is also pulling himself up on whatever he can:
"Look at me mum!"

Laughing with glee!

My mum and sister in law can and redecorated my living room for me last week - it looks well!!:

I have been making my own jewellery and today my first order went out to the hair salon where it is being stocked - scary stuff. I hope it sells and I hope none of the bits fall off!!

Well I think that all my news - for now anyway!
