This week's smiles....week 311

I have just been looking back at some of my Smiley posts and was amazed that I first started writing them way back on 18th Jan 2013!! What a lot of happy posts eh?  Many more joined in back then and it was really lovely to see what was making everyone smile.  If you'd like to see what was making me smile back then here's a link.... My First Friday Smiles post.  It wont surprise you that my Grandchildren featured in that one because they never fail to make me smile....and this week is no exception.

Lots of you have come to see Theo in his Stick Man outfit....I'm sorry to say that it's just not going to happen....but I'm still laughing about it.  I only have the one photo of it and at this point it's not quite finished....

 ....the top has had slits cut in the bottoms of the sleeves and around the bottom of the top.  The headband has had black centres drawn in the eyes.
It fit and looked really lovely.... to us that is! Theo was fine until he saw himself wearing it in the mirror and he went into meltdown saying..."I'm not Stick Man I'm just Theo".  He insisted it was taken off and refused to wear it.
Gina was so sorry that I'd spent time making his outfit and ended up buying him some Peter rabbit pyjamas to wear instead.  She put the outfit in a bag to take to Nursery with him, just in case, and was greeted by two other mums at the Nursery door with outfits in bags too.  It must be something to do with the age of the beasts but it has certainly caused lots of giggles.  

Here's Amy's three dressed up.  Lulu and Steve were two little puppies from 101 Dalmatians and Phoebe is Hermione from the Harry Potter books.

You will all be used to Poppy Dog sitting in on their photos but it really make us smile to see little Molly has joined in too....she really has made herself at home now.

The twins school is celebrating World Book Day today so I don't have any pics of them as yet.



My other smiles this week are of these two.  They are getting used to each other now as you can see.  Poppy is such a placid tempered dog that when Molly wants to play and nips at her legs she just walks away and wont tell her off but when it comes to nap time they are happy to snuggle up together.





The bottom pic came with the slogan....a cuddle or strangle?  :-) :-)

That's all my smiles for this week so please leave me a comment and then share your smiles with us too by linking below.

WOYWW....

It's a quick post from me today because I will be busy using this little lot.....


Tomorrow is WORLD book day and Theo wants to go to Nursery dressed as Stick Man.  His mummy [who would normally sort out his dressing up outfits] is very busy at school with Ofsted so I have offered to help out by making his outfit.  It can only be a tunic top and head gear because he is potty training so will need quick access to his trousers so I plan to get making today so it can be collected later ready for morning.....I imagine I will post a pic of little Stick Man on my Friday post.

For those that don't know who Stick Man is here is a pic....





He's a little stick that comes alive and goes on adventures while looking for his way to get home.....it's a book written by Julia Donaldson who wrote the Gruffalo and is a firm favourite of Theo's

That's all from me for this week....short and sweet just the way Julia likes it [and not my norm :-)].  If you'd like to leave me a little message so I know you've called by I will do my best to pop over to yours when I can.
Hugs,
Annie x
