Gosh another entry so soon!

We have been busy shopping for the new house in Antigua so we are surrounded by boxes again, Toby is fed up to the back teeth of being dragged around looking at furniture, he did get surprisingly excited when his bedroom curtains turned up though, it could be the beginning of wanting his own space, or not!

We've just come back from swimming, if I thought the instructor was rubbish before, today she was off sick and we had a really awful one, Toby still seems to enjoy himself though. I shall be looking for a new one when this block of lessons finish.

Toby had his first long day at nursery yesterday, he had his lunch there and I picked him up at 2.30 when he promptly fell asleep after being so busy. He seemed to enjoy it so long may it last, it was very quiet here and I managed to get lots done.

Lordy I'm late again!

Since I last wrote, we have had our summer holiday, thankfully whilst the weather in England was at its absolute worst. We sunned ourselves in Antigua as usual, joined by Jan and Brian who did stirling work in babysitting.

After getting a bit disappointed with how our swimming lessons here were working out I signed Toby up for daily lessons with William in Antigua, where he blossomed, he hasn't had lessons without me in tow before and it made all the difference, it won't be long before I can happily read a book and sunbathe without having to be surgically joined at the hip. I will be uploading some pictures, lets hope that doesn't take as long as updating the words!

Summer (ha ha) is almost over, Toby returns to play school next week, I can't wait a whole 2 hours to do the housework without help, with the possibility of it being extended to 4 hours, hoorah.

We have found a rather nice farm which is open daily for visits from over excited children, they have plenty of hungry lambs to be fed and the opportunity to pet some of the smaller animals, plus all the usual creatures found on a working farm, tractor rides and pig races and both and indoor and outdoor play area, Toby was in 7th heaven and when asked what he would like to do today, the answer is usually 'cows', which I have understood to be he wishes to visit the farm (I'm probably hopelessly wrong and really he wants to sail in the Isle of Wight).
