So dear Oblelites I have a spare few moments and thought I'd update about life in the White House. Things are still hectic, but then that's pretty normal life for a SAHM I hear. We are well and truly settled in our new home, can't believe it's 4 months nearly since we moved in. The time has flown by. We've spent a good part of it in our new garden, working on it, trying to make it more than just a bit of grass and concrete. We now have a flowerbed with an array of different plants, trees, flowers, bushes etc in it and more to come! We have a goal post for those all important family get togethers, a tippee for Callum to picnic in, a slide for the cars to zoom down, a patio set and a PINK BBQ! Yes PINK!!!! Oh and a couple of huge paddling pools and some planters. There is still lots more that needs doing but we're getting there and it's good enough to leave now and get started on the front garden and inside the house. I'm trying to persuade our Landlord aka Daz to let us do a deal with rent and a new kitchen. The current kitchen desperately needs work doing to it but Landlordaddy is a little reluctant, I'm sure we can wear him down though. Nothing else really needs much doing in the house, just a few licks of paint and new flooring in the bathroom and that's it really.
So how are Daz, Callum and I? We're great! I think Daz enjoys being closer to work so he gets more time at home with us and added bonus now we can all get the bus together in the morning! Why? Well at long last we got Callum into a school in the borough. It's still a 2 bus ride journey but if the buses run on time it's only a 30 minute journey. The school is still being built so it only has the Nursery and Reception years there but that's still a lot of kids and they are all in a temporary building. Callum seems to like his new school although it is very different from his old school and there seem to sadly be a few language barriers but we'll get pass all that. For the time being it will do and we are still on the waiting lists for the schools that we can walk to. It's great though all being able to get the bus together in the morning and on the way home from school Callum and I walk pass Daz' office so if we have time we pop in and see him and if not it's a hurried wave as we run past to get our bus home
