Read a piece in the latest ASDA magazine which said; Children between the ages of 5 and 12 need 10-12 hours of sleep (National Sleep Foundation). During the school holidays, Jamie has certainly not been having this much! Speaking to his friends mum's on Friday, it seems Joseph and Archie are both in bed about 8am and sleep in longer than Jamie.....
Time to try to commit to a routine mummy thinks.....

Fantastic Day at Belton
During the school holidays I have tried to do something with Jamie whenever I have not been at work. Coordinating ours and other friend holidays, we booked in this Friday almost at the start of the holidays. We agreed that Belton House / Woods would be a good venue for a catch up and we were not disappointed - www.nationaltrust.org.uk/belton-house/
As the day approached, we were all a bit worried about the weather, but we all had a fantastic day and no sign of rain until we were leaving! They all loved the adventure playground - although it seemed a bit smaller than I remembered it! The grounds were full of little adventures, lots of trees and a few wet feet! And the mummies even managed a cuppa and a chat in the indoor play area.
This is everyone (except baby Isla) making a wish in the wishing well in the Orangery at Belton.
One wished for a cat, once wished to be The Great Gonzo and one put the 20p in his pocket.....

Big Foot!
Got up early and needed to be out of the house as daddy on nights this week, so decided to go and look at school shoes. Bit of a queue, but we were seen in time to meet some of Jamie's pals in the park at 10am as agreed.
Got some nice, black Clarks - 12 G !!

"You're not my girlfriend anymore, Emily"
"You lied to me......."
Oh dear, Jamie split up with Emily (age 13) while on Santa's Sleigh Ride at Sundown Adventure Land www.sundownadventureland.co.uk/themepark/
Jamie had asked Emily if there were any moving 'people' on the ride and Emily had said 'No'. Unfortunately she had lied.....
Jamie and Emily in happier times......

Dinosaur Adventure
Once again we went to Dinosaur Adventure www.dinosauradventure.co.uk/ which was fantastic. As Will and his family were only down the coast at Cromer, we arranged to meet them there. The girls and Eliott came as well and with Will's sister Lucy that meant there were 6 children and 6 adults. Once again, they all loved it! Jamie especially loved Dippy the Dinosaur......
