Paddling Pool Fun

With all the nice weather we have been able to have my paddling pool out. Mummy blew it up before Daddy filled it up with the hose.

I made sure that I changed in to my swimming trunks before going in...unlike Mummy who 'fell' in (well perhaps with a little help from Daddy!!)

Boys Weekend

Mummy went away to Birmingham to go the spa and stay over night with some of the girls. Daddy and I made the most of the (peace & quiet!!) weekend.

On Friday night we went camping. I helped Daddy put up the tent...

before cooking tea. After tea we played football, read stories and played games in the tent.

On the Saturday morning we met Chris & Noah, Mat & Joe and Swig & Isaac to go for a bike ride on the Tissington Trail. We cycled from Parsley Hay to Tissington, stopping for some banana and chocolate chip cake on the way that Kerry had made.

After a picnic lunch all the (small) boys had a run round before the Daddies cycled back to the cars.

We then went for a well earned cup of tea (or ice cream!) although it took a bit longer to get to the cafe as Swig took us the wrong way to begin with!

Everyone came back to our house and we all played in the garden before Daddy cooked tea for everyone on the bbq.

On Sunday morning we all went to Endcliffe park. Noah played cricket with me before a visit to the playground to play on the swings, climbing frame and roundabout.

Family Party at the farm

Michelle, Dave, Catherine, Andrew and Charlotte were back in the UK from Hawaii on their way to their new house in Australia.

We had a party at Great Grandad's farm with all the family.

I had lots of fun playing football and cricket in the yard.

Grandad Stick came as well so I had a picture with two Great Grandads!

Fishing

After we had been camping we drove to Skegness to see Grandad Stick as he was staying at his caravan. As it was sunny I went fishing using the fishing rod I got for Christmas.

I caught two fish very quickly - much to the displeasure of the gentleman next to me! Daddy managed to take a picture of the first fish I caught!

Grandad Stick also caught some fish...

and I got to hold one of them before I put it back in the water.

Sherwood Forest Farm

Whilst we were camping we went to the farm just up the road from the campsite. I enjoyed feeding all the different animals...

and also driving the tractor in the playground!

Camping

We have been camping in Sherwood Forest. It was raining hard when Mummy & Daddy put the tent up (luckily, I was asleep in the car!) but it stopped just after they had finished!

I enjoyed sleeping in my own sleeping bag and also staying up late - Mummy was asleep before me on the second night!

I was also very good at helping Daddy with the cooking.

My New Friend Rebecca

Daddy's friends from work - Jenny & Andy came round for a BBQ with Rebecca and James. I was a bit shy to start with but soon made friends with Rebecca and had lots of fun playing in the garden all afternoon.
