Word of the Week: Puzzle

Ok peeps today's Friday post is going to be short and sweet. This week's word is 


This week has seen eldest and me poorly with a stubborn cough that has puzzled us as to where it has come from. We have been unable to give medicine to our eldest as she takes one sip of it and rejects it. We've tried mixing it with her milk but she said ‘no’ and suggested ‘baby’ had it! Baby and Daddy have managed to steer clear of the sickness thankfully.

So we've hankered down the hatches, hidden away indoors and played with Orchard Toy games (especially their puzzles). I picked up a few over the weekend for £1.20 and while several have been put away we had two new to us puzzles that eldest has thoroughly loved playing with. I'm so impressed with her recollection of words that are coming along through repetition.  

How has your week been?

    I hate it when you get puzzled by an illness, I hope the coughs ease up for you both soon. At least you found some fun puzzles to play with. x

    I love puzzles. Hopefully she is finding it distracting too. And what good memory skills. So frustrating when they won't take medicine. When my Teen was your daughter's age, I got so desperate, I used to hide it in jelly, just to make sure she finished the course. Hope you both feel better soon. #wotw

    Oh no, that doesn't sound too good. Coughs can be stubborn and difficult to shift sometimes. I hope you both get better soon xx
