phew - what a scorcher!

70 degress in the shade - number one sun fully sun creamed in green people organic kids sun cream (SPF 25), and running screaming through freezing cold water spraying from the garden sprinkler in nothing but a new pair of big boy pants (no more moltex nappies - we're potty trained!!! For tips see Gina Ford's potty training in a week, available in our books section). Number 2 son sitting in a bouncy chair mesmerised by the leaves of a silver birch rustling in a gentle Devon breeze.

All this summer fun reminds me that we have some great ice-lolly making sets in the shop at only £2.99. One great tip from Mrs T is to try making lollies out of kid's drinking yoghurts as a change from fruit juice. Very refreshing.
