• Drifting in and out of sleep as the sun came up.
• Peeking out from beneath the covers when I heard Jesse creeping across the landing towards our bedroom.
• Leaving Mr L.A. to enjoy his lie-in.
• Tiptoeing downstairs in a daze.
• Sleepily sipping tea on the sofa.
• Squeezing in a little work at my laptop while we waited for the rest of the house to wake up.
• Making scrambled eggs and bacon for breakfast.
• Agreeing to head out on my own with the kids so Mr L.A. could rest his bad back.
• Firming up last-minute plans with a friend.
• Diving into the shower and getting dressed in a hurry.
• Herding the children out of the house.
• Hating the rain.
• Riding the bus into town.
• Walking along a narrow cobbled street to meet my friend and her family at Bristol Old Vic.
• Discovering the cafe was closed.
• Heading elsewhere for lunch.
• Demolishing Beetroot Gravlax at No.1 Harbourside. This was my first visit and I’ll definitely be going back. It’s a great place to grab an affordable light lunch.
• Chatting away while the kids entertained themselves.
• Heading outside and making our way to the Bearpit in the rain.
• Watching Jesse shimmy and shake to the sound of the band that was playing. It was quite a sight amidst the downpour!
• Munching on a delicious chocolate brownie from Bearpit Social. Probably the best I’ve had since moving to Bristol actually.
• Failing to take any photos!
• Following my friends back to their house for a quick cuppa while the children played.
• Slowly strolling home with the children.
• Dashing to the corner shop for supplies.
• Making my current obsession, carrot, cumin and kidney bean burgers. Such a simple recipe and incredibly cheap to boot.
• Settling down for a family movie night. We watched The Odd Life of Timothy Green on Netflix and we all enjoyed it immensely. I do love a good kids’ film.
• Collapsing into bed shortly after the children. I’m a little {a lot} under the weather at the moment and staying up much later than 8.30pm is proving impossible.
• Waking up as Jesse slid into bed beside me.
• Trying to figure out what time it was.
• Listening to the rain hammering against the window.
• Deciding we didn’t need to venture out after all.
• Smiling as the children chanted ‘PJ day, PJ day’ with glee.
• Making a few final tweaks to an upcoming blog post while they watched Up in the background.
• Sending them upstairs to play while we planned Sunday lunch.
• Preparing Chicken with 100 Cloves of Garlic.
• Roasting potatoes and cooking spring greens.
• Eating too much.
• Sweating garlic. Probably.
• Snoozing on the sofa.
• Taking a long, lazy mid-afternoon shower.
• Layering on lots of luxurious skincare. Posh lotions and potions remain my biggest vice.
• Sitting down to do the online shop.
• Marvelling at how fast the afternoon had flown by.
• Fixing the children fish finger sandwiches for supper and dunking them into the bath.
• Wondering what it is about the clocks changing that makes kids crazy.
• Finally persuading Jesse to stay in bed.
• Retreating downstairs to pour myself a glass of wine.
• Hoping I’ve got the energy to survive the Easter holidays.
