Auntie Knows Best

The in-laws went home and our cousin’s son James moved into Dad’s house to look after the kids – Susie loves him. he is really gentle.

A busy week at school and work and then The Little Miss had an outdoor cooking session at Cubs. On Saturday I went to a ladies weights session on Saturday morning at 7.30am…. the kids had swimming and music and then we headed to the beach for the afternoon. It was gorgeous! Emma and I scooted off on our bikes to attend a concert in the rectory gardens. Very nice indeed.

Sunday was Father’s Day and we had a lovely relaxed day… then the news came… Susie has had kittens!!!! 7 of then which is amazing for her first litter. So we had very excited children and Mummy and headed down to see them before ending the weekend with a glorious high tide swim before bedtime.

It was a really busy week of kids activities and The Mister was marking loads of OU papers. Also the inlaws arrived so they pretty much had to fit in with whatever was going on!

Very important news though is that I made it to 2000 miles on Basil the Bike. I have had him about 15 months and have ridden him nearly every day – I am feeling pretty pleased that we have made it so many miles!

We have been keeping an eye on Dad’s cat Susie who is expecting babies… she is getting fatter and fatter. I am trying hard to keep Dad’s garden watered and not to let everything else die out. It’s not easy as it takes up loads of time…. but I do get to harvest some of the goodies like strawberries and sweet peas.

The Mister and I went out on Saturday evening to see MTG Guernsey do Spamalot. It was hilarious!

The kids also went with the inlaws to go and see the lifeboat, and I had to sing at a wedding. A very busy weekend 🙂

Busy busy day.

Just time for a quick pic of my Dad’s kittens, Claude and Susie.

I had to go to work today and then Dad requested I returned his bike. I am so sad. I have loved cycling it around.

However, I did get to spend some quality time with Susie and Claude. They are super cute.

Another kitty cat pic as I am still not feeling well.

This little beauty Susie is really starting to come out of her shell. she even let the kids handle her today and didn’t seem especially scared.

She is beautiful, such unusual colouring and her ears are huge!
