There's something about the sunshine, baby!

Don't faint but today was a Good Day!!!!!
I had a rather rough night with Lucas who always seems to be restless from around 2.30-5.30 every night. Only by 4am this morning I wasn't coping anywhere near as well as normal due to a horrid throat thing which is in my throat, ears head etc.
So DH took Lucas downstairs leaving me to sleep til around 7am. DH bought me a cuppa in bed, hung out for a bit then took the baby again so I could dress and sort washing. By that time it was nearly 10 and we went to Morrisons to compare food prices. Everyone seems to think Morrisons is cheap but maybe it depends what you buy because I couldn't save anything on products I buy. We went to Next to buy Seb new socks and underwear  having discovered whilst sorting the washing that he was still in age 5-6 pants and size 9-12 socks (which might explain his complains about them digging in over the last week, ooops!) then we went for a drive as Lucas had fallen asleep and we didn't want the  peace and quiet to end too soon. It was lovely to drive around and have the sun streaming in, blue skies to look at and the prospect of spring flaunting itself in the crocus's and leaf-buds on the trees.
Back home and I made scrambled egg and toast for us all for lunch. I tried Lucas with some yogurt again, I do periodically to see if he is affected by dairy still- more on this later. We then headed to the garden where DH mowed the lawn and we spent a couple hours just hanging out together in the sunshine. Lucas went on the trampoline with me, then on the slide both of which he seemed to enjoy. I just loved being outside and it being warm enough to want to be outside. DH and Seb played for a bit whilst Lucas fed and we swung on the swing seat.
It started to turn chilly so we headed in doors and decided to help Seb take his lego table upstairs. There have been far too many incidences of littlies attacking his lego and breaking it up and losing things, obviously they are too young to know better but Seb gets a little bereft when his precious models get destroyed. This way his room will be used more often and his games can be kept going longer without the constant shriek of "pick up your lego!"
Abi caught the furniture moving bug at that point and decided to rearrange her room, so mass sorting, rearranging, hoovering and tidying ensued and now it looks so much better.
Emma finally came home from her sleepover around 3pm and was visibly tired. I wanted her to nap but she wouldn't - I guess she still had so much adrenaline in her. So she unpacked and sorted, then helped me cook tea - we had Chinese.
I also made a fruit crumble which we eat an awful lot of, and some sugar free carrot muffins which Lucas can eat too. Lucas woke from his sleep and was visibly 'off colour' whinging, not wanting to play and not his usual self. Of course I know this is a sign that he has been affected by the milk, its usually a fairly immediate effect for allergies, and a 4-24 hour effect for intolerances, he clearly has the latter. He remained whingy until later in the evening when he finally filled his nappy which was green(another sign of milk issues) and felt better. He perked up then and managed another hour and a half before bath and bed where he is safely tucked up now.
Gotta love happy sunny days.

Have to leave you with the howler of the day. Emma was telling us about the cakes they baked with...."DISLOCATED cononut" "You mean dessicated Emma!" "No, its dislocated, the small white stuff you put in cakes."rofl!!
