I don't even really know what day it is, but actually other than putting out bins every 2 weeks, it doesn't really matter. I'd better not forget mine and Leo's b day though 😅🙂
I wasn't particularly organised yesterday and the boys were going crazy! I played board games with them, went on the trampoline, did a few jobs and had a day off from doing a work out, but I did go out for a lovely walk again. I went back to the same field I went to before, but this time I did take a mini break on the tree climbing tree. I just needed some quiet and it has such a nice view. Unfortunately I was a bit stupid and didn't put any sun cream on so I was a bit red by the evening.
I played my game in the evening after putting the boys to bed on time. They've been having lots of late nights and the trampoline sleepover made sure they were all tired enough not to complain. 😄
This morning I woke up early but again didn't get up until my alarm went off. I sorted out breakfast for everyone, Facetimed my Mum and did some chores. This seems to be the general start to every day now. I had Rob's breakfast and cuppa on his desk ready for him to start his day with his 9am meeting. I'm also his alarm clock. 😇 Ellis didn't get up until 10:30am! That's unheard of.
I had a call from MIL doctor this morning and we got the results from her tests she had the other week at the hospital. It turns out it was what we were expecting. Hopefully a change of medication will help. It's quite frustrating not being able to go and see them to sort stuff out, but they seem to be coping quite well.
Had to get my BIL to go and do a food shop for them too as they are struggling to get any delivery slots. I'm not sure that they're that great on the computer really. Will check on them again tomorrow.
Right so for my workout today I wanted to do a Joe Wicks one but for adults. It was tough going but I did it! This is the one I did. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tXOZS3AKKOw
This was followed by lunch for everyone and then gardening. I picked up leaves, weeding, did some sawing, cleared out one of the toy boxes and did a general tidy. I think the sort it centres are going to be rammed once lockdown is lifted 😂
Leo and I cleaned out his gerbils. Nibbles and Munch were in desperate need of it and luckily I'd bought loads of stuff leading up to the week of the lockdown They looked very happy and busy in their clean home.

I received a card in the post today. I had no idea what it was, thought it might be an Easter card or something like that. But look what it was! Brought a tear to my eye. Thank you Jodie, I can't wait either!
I never really thought I was that huggy a person, but turns out I am. I really am missing hugs. Obviously I get plenty from the boys but it's more like I'm giving them hugs. I'm generally always the giver as I'm the bigger person. Even Rob is shorter than me so I always feel like I am hugging him. He used to stand on the bottom stair so that he could make me feel hugged. My Dad is bigger than me but is rubbish at hugs! He's getting better though. He just basically does a massive bear hug, squeezes you so hard it hurts and then lets go. Hugs are good, better when you're the huggee and not just the hugger. 😊😄
I recently found an old photo of me with my Lucy. We were in Ibiza on holiday. Then today on Google Photos it popped up with a picture of us 6 years ago, out with the kids at Slimbridge, I think. I love the similar pose. 😍 Every blonde needs a brunette even if mine is now fake 😂
I totally forgot that tonight I was going to attend an online yoga class. I used to do yoga years ago when I first had Ellis. Actually I think I was doing it a bit before I had him. Then I started to do it with a small group of mums at someone's house and the yoga instructor would come to us. I did it for a while but then found I couldn't relax and switch off and I was getting bored, so had a break, then never really went back. The instructor is a lovely lady called Vivien. She helped me through all my pregnancies and labours with my boys. She made the whole experience so much more positive and informed. She currently runs lots of yoga sessions, hypnobirthing, new mums, active birth classes etc and since the lockdown has moved to doing them online. I think it's been quite successful so far.
I've not used Zoom before but after clapping for the NHS and frontline workers I set it up and logged in. I was soon on a screen with everyone ready for the class. I found it tough going but enjoyed it. Vivien nagged me a lot and told me I'd picked up lots of bad habits. 😜😄 She makes me laugh. I think for me I like being silly and winding her up but couldn't do that unfortunately as she mutes everyone 😂😂 It was nice to see the ladies and I'm thinking I might give it another go, if they'll have me. 😊

I can't seem to go to bed on the same day I get up! The evenings just fly by and I've stuff I want to do. It's so annoying. It's gone 12:30am but I'm not tired and I want to go and read another chapter in my book. At least I've showered already.
Right so today I've learnt that there is no point picking up petals from a magnolia tree, until they've all fallen off. I'm missing being a huggee and I'm grateful for everyone staying home so we don't spread this virus. Stay safe. x
