Saturday 19 October
After weeks of hoping it would turn up, last weekend I found the mid-beam for the spare bed! In the shed, obviously. And today I was able to move enough boxes in the spare room that there was space to put the bed up! So that's FOUR usable bedrooms! It only took a month...
Sunday 20 October
The front of the house, which is the reason that people driving past think we're living in a building site. The front is actually the last bit of the house to be worked on - the upstairs is pretty much unpacked, and the downstairs is nearly there; the back garden is on its way, and that just leaves the front. Which will be a building site for a couple of weeks yet, but after that it will be a driveway :).

Yes, it's a dishcloth. No, it wasn't my idea to put it on her head. Yes, it's clean.
Tuesday 22 October
Nanna & Grandpa arrived yesterday for a quick visit on the way back from a week in Turkey. Here's Daisy introducing Nanna to the joys of the fairy game (which is actually a really good observation-type game; I have been known to play it even when she's not around!).
Wednesday 23 October
Daisy took Grandpa and me swimming today. Nanna spectated, and took the photo, and was really impressed with how much more confident Daisy is in the water these days. I noticed today that she seemed to pick up from where she left off last week, whereas in previous weeks it's taken her a little while to get used to the water again. Swimming lessons soon, I think...
Thursday 24 October
Another one from swimming. There's never any difficulty in getting Daisy out of the pool - as long as I've remembered to bring the Smarties :).
Friday 25 October
A view of the front driveway from the upstairs window, which unfortunately misses out where most of the work has taken place this week, immediately outside the front door and along the front of the house, which has been block paved. We also have gate pillars! We can't afford to put gates on right now, but when we can, the pillars are ready!
