Hi, we're still here plodding away, I feel like we're getting somewhere with my eldest dd reading though it is still often a struggle. My sister has lent me some reading books and dd enjoys those so that's good.

We've also discovered we're having another baby!!! It's only early days and I'm having to try and take it easy as I keep spotting but it's not too worrying yet, I've got my first scan the end of August so that will help put my mind at rest.

Ive no idea how we're gonna manage but I'm sure it'll all work out in the end, we really do need a bigger house now but we're busy with the business at the moment, dh has now got a unit which we've been turning into a recording studio so it's busy busy busy here.

Yesterday we went on a day trip to Cleethorpes which was great though tiring, but we got to see a carnival so the children had a really good day. It does feel strange everytihng stopping for summer but think it's gonna be a nice break - my eldest dd is funny she saw a friend who asked her if she'd broken up from school yet, she looked a little confused so I said she was homeschooled to which she quickly piped up - "yea I never get a break" lol
