Toilet rolls, and other things!

The boys got the day off to a great start this morning - they argued over - would you believe it - toilet rolls! Yep the cardboard that you are left with, when you run out. there was me thinking, oh good, at least there are two empties (one in each bathroom) so no arguing - but that was where I got it wrong!!!
One of the rolls was grey the other one was brown - and guess what, they both wanted the grey one! No idea why, as they both would have done perfectly for rolling marbles down them - KIDS!!!
Needless to say, they got to Kindergarden earlier this morning, cause of the arguing, I hurried them some more!
I got all the floors cleaned this morning and this afternoon we played! Dominos, Thomas the tank engine dominos, thomas the tank engine tracks (got some pictures of that), jigsaws, drawing and using Mummy as a climbing frame. I'm knackered and I hope they are too!
This afternoon it was all about the toilet again! RICHARD DID IT! Yep, no washing! He was so proud of himself, and so was I! I think what brought on the success was the fact that a parcel arrived just as I sat him on the potty, by the time I got back to the loo, he was straining and saying its coming, so Robert and I waited outside, and the next we knew it was "finished"!
Hopefully, that is the success he needed and it won't be so difficult next time!
We then phoned Pop up to tell him the great news, Richard couldn't really say that much as his mouth was full of the chocolate I had promised him! Then we phoned Nanna up, she has gone to visit her best friend in Austria (Hi Aldeen!), he wouldn't tell Nanna at all, but I think he knew how excited we all were for him! We just didn't disturb Daddy at work, not sure how Daddy's colleagues would react to that one! hihi! And no, don't worry, I DIDN'T take a photo!!
Ok, that was all the exciting news for now, I'm off to BTST now, to catch up on my commenting, so many layouts in the last two days, I can't keep up!
Bye 4 now

Isn't it amazing what kids can find to argue about! You wouldn't think a 13 year old and a 3 year old would have much to argue about...but they do, all the time LOL And yay for Richard!!!!!!
