We were both in a bit of a stinky mood if truth be told.
Yeah, plenty of squabbling, wind ups and a sprinkling of mild violence.
After a few warnings we were put to bed rather early.
I was very upset about this, it was well before even Ellis' bedtime. To make matters worse absoloutley everything was Ellis' fault, of course, I was completely blameless.
Yeah, thats right Ned, of course you are......
Wednesday
The early night must have done me good, I went up a level at reading. The next level up is to be a 'Free reader' which was the target I set myself for the year at the start of term. I'm cutting it a bit fine though, we 've only got a few weeks left unti the summer holidays.
We went to the park after school, these trips have been pretty few and far between so far this year, what with the rubbish summer weather and all of our after school clubs to fit in.
Yeah, it was nice to get down there for a Bit and see who was about.
Off to Team Kennet next, we did some throwing work, I out threw the chap doing the demonstration!
Thursday
We were supposed to be having a sports day up at Park House school for the day, but the grown ups obviously got scared by the weather forecast for the day and it was cancelled. This was something of a disappointment, we had to have a normal day at school instead. To add insult to injury it didn't even rain! In other school news, we found out who our teacher will be next year. I'm going to get Mrs. Jackson, just like Ned did.
Friday
We met up with Anne at the swimming pool on friday, she came to watch my swimmng lesson (I think she was quite impressed) and then came home with us for tea. She'd also bought along my birthday presents....cool!
Yeah it was all rather good actually, she'd bought me a coy of The Billionaire Boy book i'd really wanted for ages. Who'd have thought i'd ever ve so excited about a book?
Saturday
The big day was finally upon us, the schools quad kids competition. It was held at Park House school and it was a pretty erly strt at 8:45.
Yep, and we all had to go long too, I could have done with a lie in really and was a bit out of sorts.
There were four events, I had the 50 metre sprint first up, my least favourite, so it was sort of good to get it out of the way first. I needn't have worried, I had a brilliant race, keeping my speed up right to the finish line and even getting in a perfect lunge. I was shocked to actually cross the line first in my heat:
I spent the morning slouching about in the amp chairs under the school gazbo, asking repeatedly if we could have lunch.
Next up was the standing long jump, Alastair and I jumped side by side and put in quite a show:
I hung out with Ella, and continued asking for lunch. Mum finally gave in, lunch was served!
In the afternoon I had my 400m race, I wasn't much looking forward to this either really. I did okay, even if Mum reckons I coud have gone a lot faster.
I joined in with the rest of the team in a game of tag.
Which didn't use all of our energy up i'm happy to report. I had to keep a bit back for the last event, the vortex throw. I'd been looking dorward to this one tats for sure. It showed too, I was really enjoying myself.
I put in three good throws and celebrated wirh a few dance moves. That was it, all done and just a wait for the results to be calculated. Our team (year 3 and 4 boys) came third overall!
We were well pleased. I can't wait to see the individual results next week.
I coldn't wait to go to auntie Christines for the night!
Yeah, we had a sleepover with Darcey lined up.
She's really getting fun now, she has loads of words to use and even says our names.
Sunday
We managed a bit of a lie in and then it was all set for another action packed day.
Auntie Trish came over too, awesome, I got to ride in her cool car to 4 Kingdoms place on the way to Basingstoke.
We loved taking Darcey round.
And playing on the stuff for us bigger kids too.
Then it was McDonalds for lunch before I was off to Aidans party. It was rather good actually, face painting, a lot of games to play (I won musical statues by keeping a close eye on when the pause button was going to be pressed).
While she was out we got busy with the baking....lovely!
Then it was a quiet film session until Mum and Dad finally came home, they'd been sailing or something?
We hadn't really missed them, and barely registered their arrival from the sofa.
Thanks for looking after us our wonderful Aunties!
Monday:
I had to be collected from dancing early after school as I had a bad headache, so bad i was in tears when Dad arrived. Oh dear.
We have carried on with Quad Kids even though the competiton has been and gone. It was a bit more fun this week now the serious business has passed and we got to find our results. In the overall competion I came joint 18th with Alastair. How cool is that? We were the highest John Ranking finishers in our catgeory too. I was sooooo pleased.
