April was a bit of a strange month as it felt like it was split into two halves. We had the Easter holiday and lots of rest for the first two weeks and then back to the crazy school routine for the other two.  It has been great this month to have more light and I have felt like I have had more energy. With the boys being away I got to rest a lot but I also got lots done like painting our bedroom and the doors and door frames upstairs. I also got the house properly clean for the first time in a long time.

We are really hoping to move house by the end of this year or at least by Spring next year and it has given me the incentive to take more pride in our house, de-clutter and re-decorate after ten years of it being lived in.  What could be better than clean, freshly painted  walls and skirting boards?!

Here is our video for this month, highlights for me were the hot chocolate and the bluebells:

This month was all about:

Spring cleaning

Decorating

Making up a new pesto recipe

Lie ins childfree

Italian hot chocolate

Plane journeys

Car MOT, new tyres & repairs

Eye test

Playing with a new app

Visiting the bluebells

A school trip
