A little Bit Lately

The weather has been warm, the sun has shone and we have spent every waking moment outdoors.  The boys love adventures and manage to find them everywhere they look.  We have spent plenty of mornings at our local sandy beach, afternoons learning to skim pebbles and leisurely picnics feeding the ducks down by the river.  We have blown off the usual play groups and routines and enjoyed each other's company.

I feel so lucky to have given them each a brother, a partner in crime and someone to share these adventures, as isn't life more fun with someone by your side?!  They may not always get on and they often have different agendas, but they are also friends and when they giggle together, there is nothing more precious.

We are lucky to live in a place of such opportunity.  Neither myself or the bloke drives, but we can find a day out and most importantly an adventure pretty much everywhere we look!

A Simple Day

Whilst we love exploring new places, there is always magic to be found in those we see every week, and a trip to the park at the end of our road is still an adventure at two years old.

A pirate ship, a coffee shop, a kitchen and the beach - these are all things that the space underneath the slide has doubled as this week as my little boy's imagination grows.

And from watching in my arms to cruising round the climbing frames, the littlest one is exploring further with every visit.  It won't be long until he is running round with the other toddlers, and I can see that he just can't wait.

For the little people, no adventure is too small, no journey unexciting.

A simple day doesn't mean boring.
