Hot hot hot!

This week it has been hot!! Mid twenties and it's march so we went to the beach. Albert and Rowan love sand and shells we even dipped our feet in.



Sun hats and shorts!!



We also went to cambridge this weekend to see the lovely Campbells. They are lovely and we all fit into their house and were all as pathetic as each other at wanting to sleep.
We spent Saturday at Wicken Fen which was lovely, we did brass rubbing and board walking.



We had a brilliant picnic, thank you lou and a great BBQ check out Rowan chilling in his chair.



We also managed to practically injure every child we had at the park and in the house, Molly coming of worse with a (accidental) claw hammer to the head and a tumble on the roundabout. She was very brave though!

Park

This week is Millie's last week in the uk so we met her at the park for a play in the sun, we will miss all the prior's very much for the next few years and we we hope they end up coming back.




Rowan loved the park it is a good size for a bum shuffler this one, we did have some extreme paddies when I tried to move him out of other children's way though. He certainly knows exactly where he wants to be.


He stole a big kids ball and was so chuffed with himself the kid didn't no what to do, we gave it back in the end though. A tiny roaring bum shuffler is probably quite an intimidating thing!
My mum and dad came down last week and they are amazing at wallpapering. Our kitchen is 98% finished thanks to them!!


Here it is with our dresser and our cockatoos.


Also this week we made play doh men which is normal but we had to add tiny play doh willies which Albert made, I didn't think they would need to be anatomically correct yet but I guess I was wrong. They are also wearing bob the builder hats that's why the heads are massive!


And just because they are cute and look so very similar in this picture.

Teeth.

Albert has his first dentist appointment on Monday, we have bought a new spiderman toothbrush today that is electric as you are allowed them from 3 and it is very exciting.


What the photo doesn't show is he has just eaten a chicken satay while doing tree Fu with tree Fu Tom and it is all while sat on the potty - he is special.
We did some chalking this week on a big black piece of paper which was fun and way messier then I thought it would be - especially when the glitter turned up!


Check out those trousers, it is way more fun rubbing out your chalk with your knees, bum shuffler liked it too although he did spread it alot further.


And back again.


We also did some cake making today Rowan is getting as good as Albert at testing the mix now he is allowed raw eggs.


First mini vibration I think.


Rowan, Albert and Adam all spent the weekend with Nana and Pop as I was on my annual centre parcs weekend and it sounded like they had a great time, they even got taken for lunch in a polytunnel, wow!!


Daddy also bought the best present home for the boys spare hard hats, Albert spent this morning walking round in his pants, shades and hat we didn't manage to get a photo of him looking that cool so this cheesy pose will have to do.

Spring, almost.


That is my washing on the line this weekend, it must almost be spring!


Our kitchen is almost finished just decorating to be done and we all love it! Rowan is fond of the oven light so he can watch his dinner cooking. Albert likes he can get to the surfaces and into all the cupboards as it hasn't been childlocked yet. It is a fun place to hang out in.


Eating frozen peas is way more fun then waiting for them to be cooked, but not as much fun as
helping make cakes!


Albert hung out with his friend Millie this week, check out these moody teenager faces, don't
interrupt us mummy we are eating cake!


We also played outside a lot this weekend because of the sun, we planted our broad beans and peas at the vegetable garden with Aunty Gem Gem and went for a run in the woods. Rowan likes
the backpack carrier quite alot and nothing is more fun then hitting daddy with a stick.


Albert likes to watch me put my hair up and have his done like a rabbit. He is very funny.
