Easter has been lovely this year. We’ve had so much fun along the last few weeks it has truly been non-stop. My little man made it into nursery for one day before the Easter weekend following him having Chicken Pox, and I’m glad he did as he managed to fit in some Easter craft and an Easter Egg hunt!
My parents came down to spend time with us (and to do a bit of babysitting!) which was very enjoyable. We fit in a trip to Marwell Zoo on Good Friday which was a good day out. It was jolly cold, but we wrapped up warm and made the most of it. My husband and I then shot off to a friends wedding, and my little man enjoyed a trip to Longdown Dairy Farm with his Granny and Grandad. They saw little chicks, goats, bunnies… He’s been very spoilt! Along with roast dinners, chocolate cake, trips to the park…he’s a very lucky boy…
From one bitterly cold weekend with even days of snow in the week to…a weekend of sunshine! That Easter bunny had some sunshine dust hidden in his basket for sure!
So this weekend my little mans other Granny and Granddad came down so, to make the most of the sun, we went off to the aquarium at Bournemouth and then we played on the beach! It was most enjoyable and a bucket and spade was the perfect accessory. I’ve put a few pictures on for you. We are still finding sand appearing everywhere…but hey…who cares?!
We also fit in a spot of shopping (with some snazzy new shoes for him), a yummy roast dinner cooked by my husband, wine, chilling, walks with the dog…it’s been great.
A little bit of sun has been a welcome respite from the long overly drawn out winter. A little bit of warmth on the skin and being able to be comfortable outdoors without wearing a million layers gives you a bit of a re-charge to the batteries. It’s almost like we’re cold blooded lizards searching for somewhere warm to bask in the sun. The sun’s made a little teasing appearance this weekend, but I think he has also decided it is too cold and has gone away again to hibernate. Hopefully Mr Sun will be back soon….!
We have had a wonderful Easter, surrounded by family and friends…now I think it is time for a rest!…time to squirrel myself away for some more crafting I think…
Love from me and my little man x
