What a Big Night

Tonight is the first night that the boys are sleeping in the same room together!!!! and so far so good. I have had such a mental block about it - as their sleeping patterns are so different, but it has to be done sooner rather than later. And it didn't even take that long to get them settled - but lets not count chickens hey?? :) We have been really busy over the last little while. A visit to Santa on Monday in Mullingar (which is an hour outside of Dublin). It was fantastic! Beautiful grounds, old ruins, a wonderful forest walk and of course Santa. We were out visiting our old neighbours to this week and their new baby which was wonderful - I really do miss Lusk so much! And today we had a lovely time, visiting the new Hamleys Toy store in Dundrum. The boys loved it and so did we. They had snow and a bubble machine at the door, people dressed up as toys helping with demonstrating the toys and toys all over the place for the boys to play with. And to top that a lunch out at Nando's!! Yes, Nando's is here - but it's a little different here as it's not just a take-away, but a restaurant to. And a really nice one at that. We had fun, the boys had fun - it was great.
Daniel is just getting so wonderfully cheeky and smiley - there are a few photo's I just couldn't leave out. The one with chocolate all over his face, was the result of one small biscut :).... Ben is changing and growing so much... All we get these days is "why? why?. why?" and "no, but" as an answer to every request that I make. It is worryingly similar to vicky pollard's catch phrase in little britain! will have to get this out of him :).... Enjoy the photo's....
