Sunday Day 124 – 3rd May
I have started getting a bit more adventurous in the kitchen and today was an attempt at making a chicken pasta bake where I made my own cheese sauce too! It turned out pretty good. Also made some cookies.
Monday Day 125 – 4th May
Back to doing some school work. Bee isn’t really enjoying it…she wants to be back at school and working with her friends. She has a table but decided to lie on the floor to do it. I left her to it….so long as she is doing some work.
Tuesday Day 126 – 5th May
Bee has been having trouble sleeping which is a result of our routine being completely out of whack. I have been letting her get up late in the morning to allow us to have a lie in after having to get up early to eat for our fast….but it has resulted in her bedtime being later and later. She has then asked for the hallway light to be on (even though she has nightlights) and kept going to the toilet unnecessarily. So I have decided to get back into a routine of not allowing her to sleep past 9am and also making sure she gets plenty of exercise to tire her out. In addition to her daily karate classes she also do PE with Joe. It seems to be working.
She also got a phone call from her class teaching assistant which made her happy..she had a got chat for about 15 mins.
Wednesday Day 127 – 6th May
Bee’s dad took her for a walk on her bike but they didn’t get very far. She seems to have forgotten how to ride since last September and was pretty wobbly and he said it wasn’t safe to go out until she is more stable. She is going to have to practice a bit more.
Thursday Day 128 – 7th May
Forgot we had the Clementoni Mind Designer Robot which we had been sent some time ago to review. Got it out and it kept Bee entertained for a while…and as it was coding I didn’t hassle her too much about doing some school work today.
Friday Day 129 – 8th May
It is beginning to get hard to keep Bee entertained. We don’t have any nice areas around us to have a walk in…plus with Ramadan and the heat I don’t fancy going for long walks. Let her ride her bike on the pavement and made a hopscotch on the driveway for her. Thankfully our road is pretty quiet as it is a dead end….so was happy for her to practice her riding on the pavement for now.
Saturday Day 130 – 9th May
A pretty lazy day today. Kids played on the wii and entertained themselves while I tried to catch up with some blogging. We had been sent these games and have been playing them during the week so now just need to write up the post.
We have a coding robot and Eliza is quite adept with it now, although Sebby needs me to sit with him. Getting the kids on their bikes has been a real effort this week
The coding robots are pretty good!
The pasta bake looks very good! Sorry to hear Bee is getting a bit bored and missing school, but glad to hear getting her up a bit earlier is helping. My younger son forgot how to ride a bike too and he’s never been confident, as a result. He could easily cycle to school, but he refuses as he just doesn’t like cycling. I hope Bee can get her confidence back.

She seems to be getting the hang of it again
Good on you getting more adventurous in the kitchen. The pasta bake looks so good.
It is so rough on the kids now especially since they’re missing their friends so much. My girls are struggling with their sleep too. I have tried to keep a routine but it is hard not to lie in bed on a morning.
Aww! Bee looks so happy on her bike. Such a shame she was a little wobbly. At least she can get out and practice. x

Yes it is getting to Bee now as she is pretty social so not seeing her friends is impacting her now
Yay to experimenting. We eat a lot of cheese sauce here. Not healthy, but so tasty. Hope Bee gets her cycling rhythm back again.
It certainly is tasty! She seems to have got the hang of it again
Nice to have some review items to try out and give Bee something new to do. Hope you manage to sort the sleeping out. I am having problems too due to a very noisy wailing cat.

Ah yes our cat tends to wake us up in the morning wailing for her breakfast
I bet the Jumanji computer game is fun! We are the same as you, our sleeping patterns are totally off kilter and I am finding myself going to be even later than normal, I need to work on that one! It’s hard to keep everyone entertained, whilst still working and keeping ontop of chores. By the time lockdown ends, we won’t want to go back to normal!! Sim #Project365

The jumanji game was a bit complicated as the instructions were not clear
Sorry to hear that Bee is not sleeping well. I can say the same about my younger son, his sleeping pattern is very erratic now. He is so anxious about the whole situation, though we try not to watch the news in front of him to discuss anything.
The pasta bake looks delicious. The game stack looks very interesting. Would like to find out more about Jumanji game, as I think it would appeal to my son. He loves board games.
Yes we are trying not to talk about it in front of her. The jumanji games instructions were not clear at all
I hope fasting will be easier for you this week as it seems the weather is going to be cooler for a while. Bee’s new routine sounds like a good idea for both her and you. My kids used to lie on the floor to do their homework, who cares where she does the work as long as she’s engaged

True…so long as its getting done they can do it wherever!
I am often amazed when we are out, we walk a lot of cycle paths, and the wee kids you see look 2 or 3 and are off cycling amazingly well without stabilisers on their bikes. Nice that you live on a dead end road she can practise on.
your pasta bake looks delicious
Thankfully she has got the hang of it again
Those games look like fun. Glad Bee is getting an opportunity to practice riding her bike and that the change in routine seems to be helping. Love the look of the robot too. #project366
It certainly is helping!
Well done on the kitchen adventures. We make pasta bake often. It is hard for younger kids. Bee looks so happy on her bike xx
She certainly was happy to get out!
The pasta looks delicious!!! Yeah, I’m missing my college friends too. Good of you to keep Bee active. I haven’t cycled in a long time that I’ve forgotten how to do it. I’d get on a bike, move a meter or so before collapsing on the ground. OoOooO Baby Shark! I wonder how the Jumanji game will be.

Struggled with the Jumanji game as the the instructions weren’t clear
Your pasta bake looks so tasty! We need to make more meals from scratch! Look forward to hearing how you got on with those games, we enjoy board games here and always need new ideas!

It was pretty good!
We love our coding robot, it’s a lot of fun. My teen also wants to go back to school now. It’s hard on them, isn’t it?
#project365 sorry it’s a late reply.
Yes definitely hard on them!
