I found an old I Spy book in a charity shop for 20p and snapped it up! At 3, big boy is too young to understand or have the patience for all the items in the book, so I cut out the simpler ones and made my own!
We are off to Heathrow Terminal 5 on Tuesday, to fly to Newark and I know he will adore carrying around his special I Spy book, in his mini hand luggage!
I might do a few others like I Spy at the Beach, or at the Park! A mini series!
All this month at big boy's nursery they have been encouraging the Daddies to join in. They are running a competition to make a robot with your Daddy, so for the last few days the men in the house have been busy sawing, drilling and screwing their master robot!
They raided the garage, then raided a few stalls at the car boot sale near the Helicopter Museum for a couple of old cameras and the lucky find - the control body!
The best thing is he's interactive, he scoots along on wheels, his arms can be spun around and his head turns 360 degrees! Clever Dada!
He is so smart he even has a film bow tie!
If they don't win first prize I will make them a certificate because they deserve it!

My beautiful sister and her wonderful husband have just completed on their new house! It is the start of a new chapter for them, buying their first family home!
It is such an exciting time and I hope they will be so happy in their new house.
They are both qualified in design and have already started knocking walls down so hopefully they might let me show you the transformation when it's finished! They are really good at taking an idea and researching it to get the best value.
I found this lovely padded, fabric storage box, to keep all their bits and bobs like the sales particulars etc in and big boy made them a card.
They are not moving in until we all get back from my brother's wedding in America next week, so they have a few more days at my Mums (who they have stayed with while the new house went through, as their old one sold first!) and then we can give them their real house warming present. I can't show it as they might see!
