Family Fun

The rain held off, we hunted eggs, ate a feast of burgers and sausages from the BBQ and raced with eggs and spoons. It’s always a brilliant time when the family get together, especially seeing little cousins having so much fun. 

The boys bought me this lovely sign for Mothers Day. We had a lovely day at mudeford and hengisbury head and them dinner at the New Forest Hotel.  Ben’s swimming is coming along very well. Last Friday he did front crawl and 3/4 over head…

My Mum, she’s amazing. She’d do anything for me and the boys. On Mothers Day we love to spend time with her letting her know just how much we love her. Today we went to Mudeford, then across to Hengisbury Head on the ferry for…

After so much rain this winter I’m so happy that the weather has cheered up and we’ve been out to play.  Michael has started work on the garden patio and we’re thinking about how to set out our allotment. Oliver is crazy about being in…

Another busy weekend filled with Garden sorting, trips to the allotment and finished with a stroll along the beach at Calshot in the late Sunday Sunshine. Perfect.  

Finally a bit of sunshine and for March it was a fabulous warm day. For us there’s nothing better than a play day in the woods at Moors Valley Country Park. I’m excited to be out there with my camera capturing happy memories with these…

Again it’s been way too long. Here’s a photo summary of what’s been happening. Ollie is starting to talk. Favourites are sit down, let’s go, hot, stinky, Benji, Daddy, no and muuuuuuum! Still sleeping all night from 5/5.30 until 7 or 8 am.  Ben is fab, doing…

It’s been a busy few weeks with Ben starting school. He’s been a superstar, not really showing too many signs of being over tired. We’ve got him going to bed at 7pm now instead of 8pm so he is getting extra sleep. We’re in the…

So today I would say ollie has finally mastered the walking. He’s been doing little bits for weeks but now I’d say he’s choosing to walk over crawling the majority of the time. 

Ben’s first day at school. Reception year, 9th September 2013. Super proud mummy as Ben confidently goes off to play cars on his first day. I didn’t cry as much as I thought I would either. x

A big special time for Ben. This week he finished pre-school for the summer holidays and is going to big school in September. Thursday 18th was his last day and he had his leavers party on Friday. A big brave boy it didn’t phase him.…

Oliver has been doing the odd few steps in the last month but this last week he’s starting to show more signs. Last week he did 4 steps. On Monday he had a little pot of raisins in his hands and walked from me to…
