Fathers Day

I hope everyone had a great Fathers Day on Sunday of Fathers still with us and others that are watching over us. We had a nice one my partner opened his cards and gifts from the kids and then we went to see our parents to give them their goodies. When my partners Dad was looking at what he had got my youngest was telling him what was in it and that she had chosen the card so I think next time I wont take her with me after her telling him everything!! They are so cute and sweet when they are that age as they are so innocent and don't realise what they are doing.
I still cant believe she will be starting school in September!!!! Where has the time gone it has gone so fast it only seems like yesterday I was pregnant!! The saying "Time flies when your having fun" is so true its scary!!! Well I need to finish this one quick as its my partners girls birthday on Saturday and I need to wrap her presents!!

Cinderella

I thought I would tell you all about my day with Cinderella my little daughters hamster. I was asked to take her in to a local school where I work on a voluntary basis. I took her up in her little cage and had little groups of children to talk about what she likes doing what they can see, smell and touch to help get the children's senses going. They were all so good and so was Cinderella. She let them all stroke her and wasn't fazed at all by it. I worked  through the whole class in small groups then I was asked to talk to the whole class about her which I really enjoyed and felt confident in knowing what I was doing was informing the children and I knew the answers to all the questions. I was then asked to take her into another class for more stroking and more questions. I think she enjoyed it but did sleep for quite a while with her being out most of the day. She never bit anyone so I was very proud of her too. She is such a great hamster she is so laid back my little girl who will be 4 next month just gets her out and wonders around with her!! She is followed though by the dog and cats!!

Blogger Picture

Ive just updated my Blogger picture. Hope everyone likes it.
It is of George and Glenda they are Leopard Geckos. I bought George from out of a house that as my partner said you wiped your feet on the way out!! You could feel things under the carpet as you walked it was horrid, beer cans everywhere, it was just ewww!! George's vivarium was the cleanest place in the house!! I was like yep i will take him as i just had to get him out of there no matter what!!!  Glenda on the other hand was from a lad who hadn't been able to get the trio breeding and I just bought her as a companion for George and they are soo sweet together!! I think it's love!! They have had a few eggs but as I haven't got an incubator they have never hatched. Glenda is more outgoing than George as she loves coming out where George is quite happy to stay in his viv. They love nothing more than hoppers, mealworms, salad, water squirted above them (this helps keep the humidity to the right temp and helps them with their shedding too). I do love my Geckos!!!

Fast and Furious 6

We went to see Fast and Furious 6 which came out yesterday at the cinema. The cinema that we chose was one of the best ones I've been to as you are all at different levels so you don't get the head/hair in front of you so you can actually see the whole of the film without interruption which was great!!  I would definitely go to that cinema again!!
Well Fast and Furious 6 was really good but in some places a bit predictable but did have some good twists in it and things you would expect. I wont go into too much detail with it just coming out and spoiling it for others. Some of the cars used were totally amazing and are making me want a fast car again!!! Oops Don't get me wrong my car isn't that slow but it would be nice to have a higher performance one than what i have currently got but insurance and petrol are a pain with the prices forever going up. I will just have to save loads.

What a glorious weekend

The weather has been fabulous for a change this Bank Holiday weekend. We've been able to actually go in the garden and have a big sort out. We've had a great time together as a family. Even Dandelion the rabbit and Logan the guinea-pig have been out in their run on the grass!
I finally put Oreo the baby rabbit and his two guinea-pig girlfriends Mustard and Muffin into there cage outside after spending the winter inside! Oreo is absolutely enjoying being outside and sniffing all the new smells. We just made sure they had plenty of hay and kept them covered so they can acclimatise properly. Logan and Dandelion have come out of the girls playhouse too. So all the bunnies and piggies are out in the sun well were until it decided to rain today!! Oh well at least we managed to get most of the things done we wanted to.

Strange Weather

Well what funny weather we have had this weekend!!

Where I live alot of people have been stranded and stuck due to the snow. Which was in turn made worse by the wind which turned the snow into drifts which made it really dangerous to travel in over the whole of the weekend. Some drifts were reported as over 5ft high which looked really nice but made even the main roads single lane. I cant remember the snow being like that.  I do love snow just not the havoc it causes you wouldn't think something so innocent looking and soft could cause so much damage and bring the whole of the country to a stand still!!! 

At least my guinea pig will be glad he is still in the kids playhouse where it is alot warmer than being just outside unlike my poor bunnies but they are covered and fed lots to keep them all nice and warm.
Well except Oreo who I bought in October time as a tiny baby so was too small to go out so is still inside with his two guinea pig girlfriends.

The cats have been in most of this snowy weather too as I don't really like them being out when its this sort of weather just in case they get a bit lost and its too cold for them (over protective Mummy).

My partner went out with the girls and the dog to see his parents on Sunday in all the snow but to make sure she didn't get too cold she wore my hoody!! Think I need to buy her a new coat as the ones we got her were from when she was a puppy and the cold was too much for her. I think she would need xlarge or even bigger!! I will have to get one like my other dog which is fleece lined and waterproof with a Union Jack on the back and her name in the middle of the flag.

What kind of pet?

I would love to know what people have, had and would like in the way of pets or furr babies as I know some people call their loved ones as I am doing research into this. I will start off so if you would like to post and put what you have please do so and thank you it's much appreciated.
