meatballs, again

Okay, you know we're having meatballs tonight, accompanying Ireland's glorious victory over England, and providing vital energy for the final game of the day, Wales' ignominious defeat in Paris. Oh well, there's always the World Cup...

However, of more import is the rest of the day which from Milo's point of view, is pretty much a never-ending feast, finally proving our current growth spurt theory.

After the usual pre-breakfast nibbles to accompany Scooby-Doo, and with Ana out registering him for a gymnastics course, we spend the rest of the morning playing an extended version of Jack and the Beanstalk, whereby he's Jack and I'm a nice Giant looking after him. This spills over into our brunch of boiled eggs and marmite soldiers, with a Jack and nice Giant egg:



After brunch the two of us head out in the sun to Richmond pool. Sadly/luckily (delete as you feel, but definitely 'Luckily'), the outdoor pool was still closed so we had to splash around the heated little pool instead. When we get home, Ana is trying to get the garden in shape, so we make toad-in-the-hole for little people, and Philadelphia sandwiches for the smaller and bigger-sized people:



We watch most of the Italy v Scotland game fuelled by doritos and houmous, then the meatballs, then it's bedtime for Milo and booze time for us. Of more import, I can't believe I missed ITV3's all-day Midsomer fest for Wales aimlessly hacking the ball forward, and then floundering around at the resulting ruck. Gahh!

  1. Those eggs are ACE! of course if Daviss were to make 'egg people' he'd find the need to give them some anatomical identity. Needless to say we avoid these sorts of activities in this house..
