Last weekend was a really lovely weekend away in Centre Parcs. It had been planned for ages as a surprise for my mothers 65th birthday but of course it had to be kept quiet. Although saying that planning a surprise is/ was easier than it sounds! Everytime I had a quiet whisper to my Dad my mother would chirp up what you talking about!! Nightmare! Well anyway Martha and Millie were both on the mend and we were off to have a good weekend. Everyone managed to get there before my mother but typical of my mother she spotted my car in the car park on the way in!! A good weekend was had by all and the concensus is that we will make it an annual event. There is plenty of stuff to do there for all ages old and young, I think the highlight for everyone was the swimming pool. My Dad especially was a big kid going on all the slides. Martha loved being in pool and is so confident in the water. Millie was a little on the young side for the pool as it was a bit cooler than where we go swimming and by this time she had started to come out in spots!!! Yes spots, great big ones! I wasn't too worried to begin with as they were the same as Marthas but by the time Monday came round and it was time to go home they were more like big blotches and Millie didn't seem her normal self. When I got back to Ammanford I called straight in at the doctors. The receptionist saw the state of her but unfortunately I had to go through the system of waiting for a call back. So got home and settled and started to unload the car- guess what- phone call had to go back up to the docs!! Met this very stern doctor who started slagging off the doc for giving antibiotics to the girls for common colds!!! Millie had bronchitus and I wish he had seen her the Sunday before I took them both to the doctor. She was so pale and lifeless. Anyway he gave me some 'advice as a mother' then thought it was an allergic reaction too. I then had to go back upto the surgery either Tuesday if things got worse or Wed. Tuesday the spots had started to fade but there was still plenty. So decided to wait till Wednesday, I took her upto the doctors and by now a lot of the spots had disappeared. He showed me a picture and a description of what he thought it was. It was an allegric reaction to either the virus or the antibiotics but quite an aggresive reaction. I think persoanlly it was the virus as I had some spots appear on my belly at the end of the weekend. Plus in Marthas cylch last week they said some children had come out in spots- I bet they aren't all allergic to antibiotics!!
The good news is they are both on the mend now and hopefully will be ok for a few weeks. Well they had better be as next weekend I am home alone with the girls whilst Liam is on a stag do and then the following weekend we have a wedding. Its all go here in the Bennett house. Promise pics to be on the way soon. Especially after the weekend- Marthas first fancy dress party.
