He stayed for tea and then we took him home, I went straight in and made myself at home and we had a quick game of hide and seek with his dad and little brother before I was convinced to get in the car and come home!
Yeah, he was good fun Ned, you can have him round again!
Saturday then, shall we go to the beach?
It was freeeeezing!
Yep, it was, but at least we weren't as silly as the windsurfers.
We collected some shells:
Had a wander about:
Threw some stones:
Sat in the sand and pretended it was August:
Did some digging to generate some heat:
And of course, I had an ice cream (waking up the man in the ice cream kiosk in the process).
On the way home we even went to the chippy...perfect!
Sunday Mum went to work, boo! But it was Ben's party....hooray!
First of all though we had a lazy mortning with Dad, he's getting quite good at that. We also had a visit from laura, Aunti Christiner and Laura's doggy. The cat wasn't too keen but we loved her!
So then, party time. It was the first one i'd been to since I started school so I was pretty excited. There was a bouncy castle in a hall and it all had a pirate theme:
So that was good for a bundle or two.
Yeah, I joined in much to the apparent surprise of some of the mum's who were watching. I'm not scared of a bunch of five year old boys on the rampage though.
We had food, including a home made treasure chest cake (are you taking note Mum?)
Mum turned up half way through so dad could help drink Bens dad's beer and she also got to meet some of the mums and dads she misses only doing the morning drop off at school.
Then the main event, auntie Christimes for sunday dinner. I had a meat mountain and managed to consume beef, chicken, lamb and pork in a single sitting, fantastic or what!!
We even had left over Christmas crackers:
With big hats:
Yeah, big hats indeed:
Auntie Trish and uncle Al even bought us a present over, well it was for Dad really.....a sledge!
And then of course it snowed....quite a lot.
I went to school......
....and I went to nursery as usual.
Once dad picked me up, he gave me the choice of swimming lessons as normal, or playing in the snow.....I chose swimming. I pointed out that the snow was 'ruddy cold' It was great with a reduced class and I was brilliant as usual. We even had to jump in the deep end of the big pool and swim all the way down using a float. I won (not that it was supposed to be a race, but I won anyway).
You big wuss, we went out playing in it at nursery! It was great. We did fruit tasting too, I loved the grapes and the strawberries amongst other things. I didn't go much on the lemons mind you.....
