School Holidays

We've had a reasonable busy week this week...

Monday: The boys both had appointments with the paediatrician. Gosh we were in there for quite some time. I got Michael to see Angus first as his is relatively easy and straightforward. All we needed to do was get his new script done and get his height checked.
Brodie's visit was another story. That child can be so annoying!! He didn't follow instructions very well. He was doing his 'own' thing like he usually does and acted a little babyish too. There were a couple of good things though. His blood pressure is down a little but that might be because Michael used a bigger cuff. Brodie has also lost 2.7 kilos. Much better than before as he had not lost much at all. he goes back in 6 weeks though as his blood pressure is still way too high for someone his age.

Tuesday: We all went to Morwell to go shopping for Brodie's birthday presents but we stopped for Maccas on the way to mid-valley. Not too sure if that was a good thing or not as Brodie hasn't done much exercise at all these school holidays. We spent most of our time in BigW. My fave store. I got quite a few bargains in the clearance racks. I'm sure Brodie was happy that he got so many clothes.

Wednesday: We stayed home! Yay!

Thursday: Brodie's 14th birthday!! He had been hanging out for his birthday card from Poppa (who posted it last week on Thursday) because it had a money order in it. Thankfully it arrived in the morning post. We went out to see the latest Harry Potter movie (Order of the Phoenix) which was a really good movie even though it is getting 'darker' but so are the books. Mark wasn't able to come with us his stomach was doing flip flops. So it was just the boys and I. After the movie we went and chose a birthday cake and ordered some pizza. I am sure that the boys were impressed with the fact we had pizza and I had been wanting some for the last couple of days anyway lol.

Friday: We stayed home! Yay another quiet day at home! Well apart from the boys arguing but what's new with that??!!

Tomorrow: we will be going to food bank as usual. And I promised Brodie that he could spend his birthday money so I'll need to take him shopping. I can't remember what he is after but no doubt he will remind me!!

I'm off this thing now as it is time to serve dinner...
