Joining in with TheBoyAndMe and her linky 365 Project A Photo A Day, Every Day, For A Year! Project 365 – Week 23 Days 152-158.
Sunday 1st June – Day 152
We used our National Trust membership to make another visit to Stowe Gardens, this time with Daddy P. We went on a tree leaf hunt with an identification sheet so we could press leaves for a nature book. I actually remembered to get Daddy P to take a photo of me and Monkey together. We ended a great day by seeing ourselves on BBC Countryfile!
Monday 2nd June – Day 153
Inset day here, we had fun taking part in the #bahlsenbakeoff challenge, I took video but forgot to take photos of the action. We made this scrummy Chocolate Mousse crunch. Daddy P had the day off, so rather than go to Monkey’s swimming lesson in the afternoon we went for a family swim in the morning.
Tuesday 3rd June – Day 154
Monkey had Nursery School in the morning and I caught up with some chores. He was thrilled to meet his new buddy Maya the Bee after school – firm friends already!
Wednesday 4th June – Day 155
Monkey had a busy afternoon playing with a new train set we’d been sent to review. He then helped me to make pizza from scratch for the first time. It was scrummy!
Thursday 5th June – Day 156
Monkey went to Nursery School for the whole day today for the first time. Packed lunch made and off he went. It was so quiet without him, but I got some work done on the blog which made me feel happier. Unfortunately when I got Monkey home he’d had an accident of the poop variety (his first ever) which no-one had spotted. Put a bit of a downer on an otherwise good day. Will talk to school again on Monday, as I’d already mentioned that I didn’t think he’d ever used their toilets.
Friday 6th June – Day 157
We were lucky enough to be asked to review Legoland Windsor for SuperBreak today, and how lucky were we with the weather!! We had a wonderful day and spent the last hour in Splash Valley. Monkey loved it, especially when Mummy got drenched! It was wonderful to see him running around without me once he’d been there a while.
Saturday 7th June – Day 158
Monkey was singing Happy Birthday to The Gruffalo this morning at breakfast time – it was so funny. Monkey was really pleased that The Gruffalo shares the same birthday as his ‘Auntie Sheba’. It’s pouring with rain here, what a difference 24 hours makes. We’re off to a local farm to meet some friends this afternoon – wellies and waterproofs on!
You really were lucky with the weather yesterday for Legoland.
I know – I couldn’t believe it.
Oh Legoland looks amazing, as does that chocolate mousse crunch! #365
Legoland was fab, the Splash Valley bit wasn’t open when we went last March, it’s great.
How lucky with the weather for Legoland 🙂 Love the first photo x
So lucky!
The crunchy mousse looks rather nice 🙂 Changes in routine can unsettle them easily – hope it all sorts itself out.
Much better this week thanks and the mouse was scrummy 🙂
What a lovely round up and wow you were lucky with the weather for legoland #365
I know – weren’t we just.
Awe, how cute does he look holing that bee! lovely round up Mary x #365
Thank you
Oh wow what a great week you’ve had Mary. Sounds like you’re really making the most of your NT membership, we love ours. So many fab photos of Monkey having fun too, great capture with the bee! We thought POD had had a poop incident at nursery, turns out she’s not very good at wiping yet! Hope Monkey enjoyed his day apart from that x
He is getting on better now, thankfully. Wiping seems to be a whole different skills issue!
Aw sorry that the first day was blighted by the accident, but I’m sure it’ll be easier each time. Love the first photo of the two of you – so lovely to capture moments together sometimes too! And Legoland looks fab!
Yes, much better since thankfully, first day blip I think.
Fab picture of Monkey in the water at Legoland. No worries about swimming there!
No – he was a bit hesitant to start with, nut once he’d got a good drenching nhe was off!
Legoland is perfect in the sun, so very lucky with the weather. Am sure Monkey will settle into his full days.
We were so very lucky.
awww Mary that picture of you and Monkey together is beautiful x
Thank you – a rare one
What a great collection this week, they made me smile. Especially the singing to the gruffalo
He is a funny little boy at times
Some lovely shots! I think the not using the school toilet is quite a common thing. I’m sure he’ll soon get over it.
It’s seems to have been a first full day issue, he’s been fine since, thankfully.
Looks like you had an action packed week!!! great photos, I too forgot to take action pics for the bake off, too busy eating 😉
Yes it was all rather scrummy wasn’t it.
What a fun week! Looks like you’ve had a great one 🙂 x #Project365
It’s been busy again.
Lovely shots, and such a HAPPY BOY in that last one! What a great week 23 🙂
It was a great week and I love that last shot too.
Gorgeous photo of the two of you and I love the photo of Monkey splashing in the water!
Thank you
Such gorgeous photos, the Legoland one is amazing, we went a few weeks ago and my kids loved the water world
Thank you, Splash Valley was awesome
Great shots. The photo of him playing in the water looks like so much fun!
He was having a ball – totally in the zone.
Legoland is such fun isn’t it? It’s just down the road from us, we used to go a lot when the kids were younger. Glad monkey enjoyed it and what fab weather you had! Makes such a difference 🙂
It’s great isn’t it. I could spend all day in the miniland!
what a shame about his accident, hope it doesnt put him off going back. Legoland looks amazing, and I love his sunwear swin suit, Bob has quite a few as he cant use sun tan lotion, they are great.
Love the close up of him and gruffalo, made me laugh,
He’s been fine since, so think it was just a little blip.
Love the photo of you two on the bench. That train set looks like great fun!
Mine are desperate togo back to Legoland – they want to play in the splash park!
