is what we have been having the last few days. M has been off since saturday and still has the rest of the the week off so we have been taking advantage of the nice weather by having lots of family days out. We have hit all the major local parks and few that aren't local. Having Miko has really helped us to get out and enjoy the beautiful country around us. Miko has gone everywhere with us and when she wasn't allowed in somewhere she slept in the car. She is almost better in the car than she is in her crate.
Today we ended up at burghley house and had a lovely wander in the grounds. The deer roam free and we were treated to lots of close encounters with them. Miko went crazy and thought that they were potential playmates-or possibly dinner! We ran into J and her boys which was a nice surprise. We helped them to gather chestnuts before heading home.
Yesterday we went to the coventry air museum ( the one sam and I visited while M was away). The boys had a ball and I had fun trying to convince Miko that rabbit droppings are not a new snack food. She is very good in new situations and meeting new people and didn't bat an eyelid at all the big planes and strange people. The boys bought an airfix model of the new Typhoon fighter which should keep them busy all winter.
Tomorrow we are off to the sea life center in birminghamm san is very excited. It should be a fun day out. Thursday morning we are going to a free screening of cars so the next few days should be pretty action packed.
We haven't done any normals so far this week but with all our field trips I think that he is still getting and education. We start back to work on monday, with science though, so he shouldn't mind too much.

Really glad that Miko is settling in well. She sounds like a member of the family already, it's great :-)
I've just wandered up to pick Joe up from Scouts on my own and had thoughts of "Soon be walking the dog with me..." which made me smile. I think it will be after Christmas though.
i can't tell you how much we are enjoying going out on family walks with miko-we are no doubt gettng fitter!
hope it won't be too long before you guys have a dog too.
Miko looks like he's grown quite a bit. Lovely photos - Sam's quite a photographer isn't he? Elle
Sam is quite the photographer, good pictures. Glad you guys are having fun and spending quality time together
