The Shoffice
I have been giving the Shoffice a makeover during the last few weeks - it certainly needed it!
I started by cleaning it down and removing any loose stuff - then gave it an undercoat with some stain cover paint - which was very sticky and hard work to put on!
We chose 'willow' as the colour for the shoffice - I did two coats - the first with a brush and the top coat with a roller.
I then painted some pots and troughs in the same paint to go outside the shoffice to brighten it up - the troughs are going to go on shelves under the windows once I have painted those too. I think the shoffice looks much improved!

Sixteen Months Today!
Marcus is sixteen months old today - and definitely a toddler not our baby any more. He is independent and very strong willed. Screaming and foot stamping are featuring loudly at the moment!
Marcus still likes to climb and run around - the garden is his favourite place to be - especially now the playset has been constructed.
Marcus is keen to use his fork and spoon now and drinks competently from a cup, glass or sports top bottle. He has grown an eighth tooth this month so now has four at the top and four at the bottom.
In the last week or so Marcus has started saying more words - and tries to copy what you say to him. All gone and yes are still favourite words - as well as a soft ahh sound when he sees an animal or small baby! He loves to visit Pets At Home to see the small furries!
Marcus will imitate everything you do - from brushing your teeth to using a screwdriver - he loves to 'help'. He also likes to share - holding out food or toys for you. He is beginning to play imaginatively - pretending to talk on the phone or drink from a cup. Our little boy is growing up too fast!

Sam's Birthday
We had a lovely relaxing long weekend for Sam's Birthday. On Saturday we drove to Lymington to collect Pip and take her back to our house. Marcus loved seeing her again.
On Sunday morning we had a lovely Skype chat with Vickie and Jerry and they were able to see Sam open her card and Raspberry Pi gift from them. I got Sam a new breadmaker and Pip and Liam got her a pressure washer - with some help from Sam!
On Sunday evening we went to Sizzall for a Birthday meal - Kate and Stephen joined us as well as Charlotte and James. The food was great and Marcus enjoyed himself too.
On Monday afternoon we took Pip back home - stopping for a picnic on the way. We ended up with two tired but muddy dogs who had been in a bog!
Sam has the rest of the week off which is lovely!
