Day One Thousand Six Hundred and Fifty-Three

Saturday 4th March 2017 ~ Today, was all about the cake! After Mummy and me got up bright and early for ballet we met those slug-a-bug boys in the fancy new creperie - called La Boîte - which has opened in the old signal box, so you can eat pancakes and watch the trains chug past. I ordered a strawberry jam and cream pancake, which was (just) a little bigger than I could manage.

Fortunately, after brunch we went to Ikea! Or rather, Mummy went in to pick up a few bits and Daddy took us to the park. I had a great time on the climbing frame and being spun around by Ira and used up lots of energy running around.

Which was just as well, because in the afternoon we went to a birthday party and had even more cake, what a delicious way start and end the day!

Day One Thousand Six Hundred and Fifty-Two

Friday 3rd March 2017 - Today was a hive of activity.. trampolining and lunch with my friends, gym tots and then home to play with Daddy. 

And tonight, I read Ira the tickle monster book before bed, which he really enjoyed.

Day One Thousand Six Hundred and Fifty-One

Thursday 2nd March 2017 - Today Mummy picked me up from preschool and we went for lunch in Ziggy's. She'd packed a little pot of sweetcorn for all of us so we could feed the ducks and swans on the lake. We went for a very muddy walk around the lake...

...and a long play in the park in the sunshine until it was time to head home for tea

Wednesday 1st March 2017 - Today is the first day of March. And spring has sprung.. at least in our front garden which is full of daffodils

Day One Thousand Six Hundred and Forty-Six

Saturday 25th February 2017 - Today Mummy was teaching so it was Daddy day. He took me to ballet in the morning and to Penny's 3rd Birthday party at All Saint's in the afternoon

Of course all my friends were there...

... and I had my face painted like a beautiful butterfly. I couldn't wait to show Mummy when she got home

Day One Thousand Six Hundred and Forty-Five

Friday 25th February 2017 - An amazing day bouncing bouncing bouncing at Lea Valley Farm

Day One Thousand Six Hundred and Forty-Three

Wednesday 22nd February 2017 - Our bath still isn't quite ready so this morning I had a bath in the sink.. Mummy says it's like in the good old days

Preschool was great today, and so was the afternoon at Cheryl's with my friends 

Day One Thousand Six Hundred and Forty-Two

 Tuesday 21st February 2017 - Just as I was starting to miss my Grandma and Grandad, they came back to look after us

And our bathroom's nearly finished. Hooray! 

Day One Thousand Six Hundred and Forty-One

Monday 20th February 2017 - Mummy says it's normal to have post holiday blues. 

But being back isn't too bad at all

Day One Thousand Six Hundred and Forty

Sunday 19th February 2017 - Day Seven at Centre Parcs. Our last day here. So a morning spent snuggling with Grandad on the sofa...

...and a very exciting afternoon spent rollerskating with Grandma and Mummy. Mummy says I tried it when I was Ira's age and I loved it. I loved it today too, but unfortunately Ira was too poorly to rollerskate with me so he stayed with Grandad and slept on the sofa

The lady taught me how to keep my head up, to look where I was going, to at my feet, to stand upright like a princess and to take tiny steps. I got better over time but it was so difficult...

...it was good to be back on my feet again. And for a final run around in the park before it was time to head home after a brilliant holiday 

Day One Thousand Six Hundred and Thirty-Nine

Saturday 18th February 2017 - Day six at Centre Parcs and Grandad arranged for us to play pirate mini golf. He even helped me hold my golf club and hit the ball properly

There were ships and pirates and curly snakes to hit your balls into. And this cannon, which thankfully wasn't a real one

Ira and I went round the course once...

...and then Grandma, Grandad and Daddy decided they wanted a proper game (not entirely sure what they meant) so Mummy took Ira and I for a walk along the beach . We saw lots of moorhen, coots and duckies

We followed lots of duckies around

And then played in the park with Daddy and Grandad while Mummy and Grandma cycled back to get our swimming stuff

Day One Thousand Six Hundred and Thirty-Eight

 Friday 17th February 2017 - Day Five at Centre Parcs started with fun with Grandad

SO much fun! 

And then back into the forest for a play in the park...

...and a brilliant time in the swimming pool. Here we are in the baby pool. Most of the time, Ira and I ran around and went up and downstairs in Venture Cove

So much adventuring. I slept well that night

Day One Thousand Six Hundred and Thirty-Seven

 Thursday 16th February 2017 - Day Four at Centre Parcs and Ira and I had decided that although we had a trailer each, we liked sharing one, all snuggly next to each other. Mummy wasn't so sure, especially as we insisted she cycled us up hill and down dale...

...through the forest and to the playground. Then it was my turn to drive and take Ira on a woodland adventure 

Oh and Grandma and Grandad arrived, which made my day!

We played outside and inside, in the swimming pool and back at the lodge. All day until it was time for bed

Day One Thousand Six Hundred and Thirty-Six

 Wednesday 15th February 2017 - Day Three at Centre Parcs. Cheryl, Poppy and Riley have gone home and the lodge is feeling rather quiet. I didn't mind. It was a good chance to have a relaxing morning in front of the television, watching the animals in the woods and staying in my cosy pajamas

We did leave the lodge eventually for a bike ride and a picnic in the woods. Lions and Tigers and Bears. Oh my!

Day One Thousand Six Hundred and Thirty-Five

 Monday 14th February 2017 - Day Two at Centre Parcs. Cheryl and Daddy went for a run in the woods and Poppy and Riley were there for some morning writing practice

We were distracted by the wildlife that appeared at the window to eat our leftover breakfast. Squirrels, birds and a Muntjac deer

We did eventually get dressed and head out for the day

We went straight to the swimming pool, where we went on all the slides.. even the big ones. And then had lunch and a slushy

After swimming was a game of bowling. I loved it and was very competitive (Mummy has no idea where I get it from).

Luckily I won by a country mile!

Day One Thousand Six Hundred and Thirty-Four

Monday 13th February 2017 - Today, the day I've been waiting for.. our first day at Centre Parcs, which is going to be our home for the week while Stuart and Shaun fit the bathroom. It's good to be back
