Another week has been and gone, it doesn't feel like two minutes ago that I was writing last weeks post. With Noah still being off nursery we've had no set routine again, this has it's advantages such as spontaneous trips out but the down side is that it's hard to be able to get Ava into any sort of nap routine with a boisterous three year old bounding around. We are all loving it though and it's bittersweet to know that he'll be going back to nursery full time in September, 8:30am-3pm on Mon, Tues, Weds and Thurs. He's got another year there and then he starts School, how scary is that?
Anyway, back on topic. We've had a great week again. Sunday was our usual family day out and we visited one of our favourite places again. We love going to Bowland Wild Boar park and go half a dozen times a year, so much so we are actually thinking of getting annual passes. The weather was lovely too, so glad we went and made the most of the sun.
Monday was quite easy going. Noah had a play date next door and stayed for tea. We then went food shopping and I went to Slimming World. I only lost -0.5lb this week but it's better than nothing and it does bring me to 14.5lb loss so far! On Tuesday I decided to take the kids over to see my Mum and Nanna just like last week, so it was a ride in the taxi and then a half hour journey on the train. You'd think it'd be hard work with two young children but it's really not, the most difficult part is making sure I've packed everything we need to take and getting everyone in the taxi. Again we had a lovely day with my Mum and then went to visit my Nanna.
Wednesday I invited Noah's friend around for a play date as he'd been there earlier in the week. They had lunch together and had a whale of a time the entire afternoon. Thursday was playgroup time and then another play date in the afternoon! Noah loves playing with his best friend who lives next door so it's always lovely for them to have that time together, they play really nicely and it keeps them both busy too. I think I managed to have a warm cup of tea!
Friday and Saturday we had two lazy days, which is unlike us. The weather has been so hit and miss though that it's kind of the perfect excuse to relax and do absolutely nothing. We did however go shopping and visit family, but nothing out of the ordinary!

Lots of nice family pictures
ReplyDeleteWe had a nice Day Out at Callender. First time that we had been. Some nice shops, and we had a relaxing time seated on benches in the town square. Bought some delicious Turkish Delight :- Which we enjoyed sharing today when visiting Mum. Turkish Delight flavours we chose :- Apple, Ginger and Strawberry, Delicious!

Beautiful photos, they are growing quickly xx
ReplyDeletelove the bottom smiley girl picture.
ReplyDeleteSuper cute to see them sat together doing things nicely.
Seems like you have had quite a varied week of activity and rest. Nice that you have managed to take the children to visit relatives :- your mum and nanny. I can recall as children visiting an aunt who stayed nearby, all my siblings enjoyed visiting Aunty. We now have great childhood memories of spending time with her. She would have visitors at times :- We would often have afternoon tea and cakes :-Delicious!

Noah's name on the bedroom wall looks delightful.
