A week in pictures!

It has been a really long week of no internet.  Just in case you are curious...once you order broadband and cable, it takes two weeks before they come and install the cable and three before they activate your broadband.  It is crazy!  We have been buying internet from some sort of hotspot company for 5 pounds/day and decided we could do without it for a few days until yesterday.

Oh, and just in case you were curious about our cable guy, his boss told me he has been out of work for over a week with torn ligaments in his shoulder!!!  His supervisor came by to help with a cable issue and also took pictures of the stairs where "the incident" occurred.  I feel like people don't really sue here, so I'm not worried...much.

Here is a run down of the week...in pictures.  I know, pretty boring, but it is for the grandparents!

This is parker with my groceries in the wagon on Monday (he has recently decided that he hates to get his picture taken and is not willing to smile for the camera).  Apparently, no one in England has ever seen a wagon.  You would not believe how many comments I got!

Just in case you were worried that P is not getting enough to eat...:)

Tuesday, WE GOT FURNITURE!!!  This is a picture of our new couch!!  Until now, we have only had our dining room chairs to sit on, so I am so excited!!  I have A LOT to do in this room, but at least we are getting a good start!

This is the lime green chair we got to go with the couch.  Pay no attention to the mess behind it!  We have a desk coming in 10 days that will hopefully take care of the mess!

On Wednesday, Parker and I went on a late afternoon walk to the park (don't worry, we took the backpack:) and he insisted on rolling his pants up.  I'm pretty sure I would have been better off just leaving the pants off.

On the way to the park, a little boy yelled, "run fat boy" to Parker.  Seriously?!?! He isn't even 2!  He was with two other kids and I almost turned around and yelled at him, but I decided that getting into a fight with someone almost 20 years younger than me would not be a good example for Parker.

On Thursday, I took Parker to a puppet show.  It was the baby-friendly show  so it was kind of a rambunctious group, but it was so nice to be able to take Parker to something like that without worrying about him getting bored and making noise (he was entranced with the show for the full hour so I shouldn't have worried!) Oh, and the face he is making is because the flash on my phone took him by surprise!

On Friday, we did some shopping at the market and I got Parker an ice cream cone .  I'm not going to lie, this kind of made my day.  

He was so excited, and I (being the good mom that I am) had to make sure that it didn't drip by licking it periodically for him!


Well, that was our week in pictures!!  I hope you all had a great week!
