As it was a week day and knowing we would have to get up early today we decided against going out and a few of us got together for pizza and a few drinks.
between us we had 10 portions of chips. 5 large pizzas and 2 cheesy garlic breads and boy was it yummy.
It was a good night loads if chatting few drinks and plenty of giggles.
I was glad to celebrate my birthday with my friend. we have known each other now 9years, not once have we had a bad word to say or an argument and i have to say she is always their for me.
I would be lost with out her sometimes.
So i would just like to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO A TRUE FRIEND LOVE YOU MILLIONS and hope u had a fab day and night and heres to the weekend celebrations whooo

Yummy Mummy

I was lucky enough to be able to go away for a week at the beginning of the summer holidays.
Ruby went to stay with her dad and Dj went to stay with his aunty and uncle.
I went to catch up with an old friend with whom i worked with 10year ago and i hadnt seen since leaving the job.
Now i have to admit i get up in the morning get the kids sorted and have a quick shower and always end up throwing anything on. hair up and no make up.

now im not saying their is anything wrong with that as i feel comfy this way, but i do sometimes feel like a scruff.

whilst i was away i got to have a few nights out and to dress up. Boy it felt good. i forgot what it was like to dress up and wear make up.

i felt so good. confidence was high got loads of compliments and as you can see from the pic im smiling.

so i have decided from now on i am going to make an effort with myself at least a few times a week.

Im back Whoooo

Its been a while since i last blogged and oh how ive missed it.
my laptop broke then my phone broke and its only now ive got a decent phone im able to blog again.

What do i have planned i hear you ask, and the anwser is simple, absolutly nothing, yes it may sound boring but im looking forward to just having a lie in, tea in peace, a bath where i can actually relax.

DYSPRAXIA, DYSLEXIA AND DJ

Well as you all know it was confirmed the other week that as well as being dyslexic dj also has dyspraxia.
I thought it would be good to write a post on what i already know from researching and being told.
Apologies as this post will be quite long.

Dyspraxia is also known as development coordination disorder, or dcd for short, it is a disabillity which effects the persons movements and coordination. Their is very little known of what causes dyspraxia but it has been said that it could be linked to early labour, family history of dyspraxia, mother drinking and or taking drugs during pregnancy as well as a low birth weight.

In people with dyspraxia they say that the motor neurones in the brain haven't developed properly, so they cant send the electrial signal from the brain to the muscle as they should do.
Around 10％ of the population have dyspraxia, and its more likely to effect males, their is also no cure, it is said some may grow out of it, others dont.
Dyspraxia is often linked to one or more of the following,  autisum, add, adhd, weak muscles and dyslexia.
Dj has with his weak muscles and servere dyslexia.

Their are various symptons and signs some sufferers have many symtons others only a few.

Struggle to sit and keep still.
Struggle with hand writting.
Struggle using cutlery.
Problems concentrating.
Struggle with buttons, zips and laces.
Make funny noises, flap and fidget with arms, legs, fingers, hands and feet.
Struggle to throw, catch and kick ball.
Sensitive to texture, touch.
Problems with brushing hair and teeth, washing themselves and wiping after being to the toilet.
Problems dealing with emotions, more sensitive than others.

That is just a few of the symptons but their are many more, it is said that no 2 sufferers are the same.

Being dyspraxic does not mean you arent clever in fact it is said that people with it often have a high verbal IQ.

Dj doesnt like that he has dyslexia and dyspraxia and weak muscle tone, and is finding it a little hard and confusing at the momment, i believe thats because things are all changing, which he doesnt like, i am lucky in a way as he doesn't have behaviour problems, but he is extremly sensitive so i have to be careful when i talk to him and the way i do.

I will post again soon about how the dyspraxia, dyslexia and muscle tone effects DJ, and myself and ruby, as well as what help he gets at home and in school

A SNOWY SATURDAY

As the weather as been horrible once today, Ruby has been stressed being stuck indoors so we got some arty bits out and ruby did a picture, glue was every where tho.
We also decided to have an afternoon nap, only we ended up sleeping for 2 hours oopppss, we both must of needed it.
Dj came home from his friends moaning he is bored so out came the playdoh.

We are of next door to my mums in 10mins for a lovely roast dinner, then home to bath kids in a gelli baff, film and cuddles on the sofa, relaxing start to the holidays.
