#t'lympics

Still loving the Olympics, and still ignoring my children at critical points of the day.  High point was watching Kath Grainger get her gold finally, and low point seeing poor Becky Adlington get bronze, although she should still be so proud of that.  Am very much loving how the country is really getting behind the games and everyone is posting on FB/twitter etc and so many of my friends are actually going.  If we'd not got the kids I would have loved to have gone, but hey ho, life is different.
In other sporting news, we got Ben his first bike today.  It's a balance bike, and after it arrived we met with Paul in the cycle shop and got him a helmet.  He looks so cute in his helmet bless him, although to be honest I think he was more interested in "fixing" the bike with his tool kit rather than riding it, but then again it does take a bit of practice, and by the time it was bath and bed time he was sitting on it a little bit.
Becca has been severely clingy today, so I am glad it's the weekend and Paul is about tomorrow.  She was very cute at times too though, bless her.
