I Don't Like Mondays

For the last few months I have been taking Jacob to Didi Dance on a Monday morning. We grew like a seed, we danced in a circle, we galloped and at the end we got a sticker. Sounds lovely don't you think. Well, if Jacob was a willing participant then yes it would be fabulous. Over the last few weeks he has got worse and worse, to the point today I decided that I didn't have the energy to fight with him. So instead we went to the local play barn (love these places). I had to renew his membership anyway and then I paid an extra £1 to join in with toddler morning. Juice & toast & activity (bargain).

It was great. Daniel went to sleep, so I climbed up with Jacob and we went to the top and then down the slide a few times, then he had some juice and toast and then we did some painting. I don't do painting at home and you can see why in the photo!

This would be the one and only time we have had paints out at home. There was more paint on Jacob than on the paper. I leave this activity to the professionals.

Anyway, so until this week I didn't like Mondays. I think we'll knock Didi Dance on the head and go to the toddler activity instead. Cheaper and less stressful. Win win me thinks.
