The Welsh Mountain Zoo, is based above Conway Bay, and is a beautiful, if not hilly zoo, with fantastic views of the bays.

We were kindly taken by J, so I didnt have to drive, and Asha really enjoyed playing on the “sky line” and has really mastered making it work for her! I also took a second take at the way she swung on the rope ball, and grabbed hold of the string rope ladder, and climbed off without any help! I truly have a little Monkey at times!

As always we went to watch the Californian Sealions sealions rock , The owl getting a good long fly, and the penguins parade, and spent a while looking at the tiny meerkats.. She also enjoyed the pandas, and the snow leopard. But as she has spent most of today pretending to be an ostrich, on a nest, I guess its the Rhea;s who inspired her immediate imagination the most!

Not sure the metal fence was very scared of her though..!
and so she road her bike at CLASS, and had a wonderful time…

After this, she played and played, and i took this snap of her!

We were all a bit sleepy this morning, and none of us really wanted to get up. We have received this weeks “i love film” dvd’s and so we watched one in bed before we got up. “What to eat now.. Autum cd 1”

Well if your going to watch tv in bed.. it needs to be interesting…!

After that we all got up, and i had a much needed bath. Asha did some early morning art work.. and then we got together our selves and went to pick T up, as his mums car was off the road again.

At CLAS we ate our dinner, and Asha enjoyed playing with her friends, and using her roller skates. She is currently really enjoying roller skating and skateboarding. I plan to take her to the local skateboarding “site” one day soon.

I had a lovely time talking to Kay and Rowenna. It was good to have some time, to sit and talk. I am not spending much time in the main hall at the moment, but this is partly because its just too active in there and my little head cant cope with it!

J and I sat and discussed crafts for the next few weeks. Hopefully she will start feeling brighter soon. If we can get through this blip in the craft market, then we will be back on track i am sure. E, has offered to do some crafts as well which is fabulous, the more the merrier!

On the way home, Asha was hungry, and asked if we could go to the shops for some crips.. I agreed. She was very happy at having a whole pack of hoola hoops to her self!

Oh well.. Night all!!!

She is loving it.

It was lovely to be back outside with all the kids and parents, wandering around watching the little monkeys, the goats and the baby rabbits.

Asha at the moment has a real thing about rabbits, and was fascinated when we were talking about how they talk to each other.. stamping there feet.. she is spending a lot of time doing this action right now… Stomp stomp stomp!

We have just aquired a caravan, with awning, and need a few bits and pieces to make life easier.

Tent pegs

Water carrier (rolling one) fitting for water carrier – caravan.

Ground Sheet – for awning.

Gas bottle fitting, and pipe – butane bottle.

Solid step, so we can get in and out of caravan!

Caravan heater??

If anyone can help in anyway with any of this, we really would appreciate the help!

Anyway, what have we been doing for the last two weeks?  Ummmm.

Works backwards – Today is shove tuesday. We had a great pancake party, and ate far too many pancakes. P came round, and we all enjoyed ourselves.

We did shopping in bangor today, and asha bought herself a new set of plastic kitchen toys.

Monday – Naomi and 4 kids came round, and we had a lovely evening playing. In day time, Asha and i did assorted things with paper, and made sample musical instruments up out of junk for clas project on Wednesday.

Monday. I did some shopping, and collasped in heap i think.

Sunday -

Saturday – was it snowdrop weekend at penrhyn? If it was we went there is Gwerin, and had a great time!…….

As such, when our clock Alarm goes off in the morning, it normally wakes me and steve up, and if Asha isnt awake her as well. Well today, she slept through it. About 3/4 of an hour later she was awake and trying to get me up.. Grrrr.

I eventually got up at 9.40, and we got ready for CLAS. Asha still has a bad cough, but i informed her, that if she stays inside the hall, she could go. She did this, and played happily all day.  Wrapped up, and content.

She made some bird feed balls, and the craft activity this week was hama beads, she still struggles a bit with these, but was soon on her way with it all, and enjoyed the socialisation.

After CLAS we returned to Gwerin, after our break. She was SOOOooo pleased to see her friends.

What else can i say really????
