Week 44 – 29 October to 4 November 2023
Back to school – a quiet week.
Day 303 – Sunday
Our Scouts group went to Sheffield today for the Muslim Scouts Olympics. I didn’t go even though I wanted to, because I had no one to look after Minu. It would have been too long of a day for her. 22 young people went and came home with 3 gold medals and 5 bronze. I ended up taking the girls to soft play just to get out for a bit. It tired Minu out and she actually had a nap afterwards. She’s been dropping her naps.
Day 304 – Monday
Older 2 back to school and Minu and I headed to a friends house for a bit. Then popped to mums. No pictures
Day 305 – Tuesday
It was the Muslim Mums meet up today and it was confirmed that once your child becomes 2 you have to stop attending the meet ups. But if you become a volunteer you can still go. May sign up to be a volunteer as it is a nice group. It was a heavy session with talk of the genocide that currently happening and all of us feeling helpless.
Minu loved the puddles and the leaves! After the group headed to the shops with one of the mums and the kids had lunch at Asda.
Day 306 – Wednesday
Wednesday toddler group today. This is the only paid group we are going to now as the others have stopped, plus it was getting a bit too expensive, but we love this one.
Day 307 – Thursday
Popped to the shops with the husband. Went to Clarks to look at some boots for Minu but her feet are so narrow they didn’t have any in her size. Popped to Diechman to look at the adult boots and they have a lot of new stock. Did the food shopping. Then a quiet afternoon.
Day 308 – Friday
Thought about taking Minu to the toddler group at the Childrens Centre but the weather wasn’t great so stayed at home. Was a busy morning with play dough, water play etc!
Day 309 – Saturday
Bee didn’t want to go to karate today as she wanted to play with Minu. Decided to let her stay at home as I couldn’t be bothered to go pick her up later. Was a quiet day spent at home. A friend dropped over some chicken wings for Bee as she had promised to make her some some time ago. I didn’t have any as I am not a fan of wings…but Bee said they were delicious.
Well done to the scouts with their medals.
That’s a shame that once a child becomes two they have to stop going to the meet ups. Being a volunteer sounds like a good idea.
It really is boot weather now. I have just got a new pair. x

Just had to get the eldest a new pair too!
What a lovely friend to drop off the chicken wings for Bee. Shame about the weather this week. I’m trying not to let the rain put me off going out.
I hate rain!
I imagine is very hard to get the right size for Minu, as children sizes can be a bit unreliable (from what I know). Hopefully you will find some that are suitable for her.
She seems to have enjoyed the water play.
She did thank you
The Muslim Scout Olympics sounds like it was fun – well done to the young people on their medals. Minu looks like she was having fun at the toddler groups and with the water play and I love her winter coat. Those chicken wings look delicious. #project365
They were delicious according to Bee!
