Sunday started off as such a lovely day, we had a nice big breakfast had a bit of a lazy morning and then we went for a family swim at the pool. It was really hot even by mid afternoon so Arthur and I were […]
Its Sunday so I’m linking up with Katie at Mummy Daddy Me for the Ordinary Moments again!
On Friday Mark came home from work with a paddling pool for Arthur. I was so excited as I’ve been desperate for him to have one! I know we are spoiled with having access to a swimming pool two minutes away but there is something very special about a paddling pool, I think so any way!
I have such happy memories of being in the paddling pool when I was little and so I was so excited for Arthur now having his own.
On Saturday I was Skyping my dad who has been working on a boat for the last two months. We hadn’t been able to chat for a while as the wifi on board isn’t very reliable (they are in the middle of the North Sea so you can’t expect it to be great!). Half way through the call we had a power cut 🙁 so we couldn’t finish talking which was sad. It got really hot in the house really quick so I jumped at the opportunity to get Arthur in the paddling pool!!
I only filled it up a little but he had SO much fun splashing and crawling around in the cool water.
Im not sure whether part of the excitement of the paddling pool for me being little was that it was only the odd day you could use it as its obviously a weather dependent activity!! However I hope that Arthur will continue to have fun in his and I know we will get lots of use out of it :). Arthur is a very lucky boy to have a life where playing in a paddling pool really can be an ordinary moment!
Happy Sunday

I’m a little late for this one but I’m linking up with Katie at Mummy Daddy Me for the Ordinary Moments again! Today (Monday), Arthur had his monthly weight check. The nurse asked me if we had seen the dentist yet. I explained that I had asked […]
In the Seychelles, if it’s your first baby you go to Mahe (the main island) to have your baby (we live on Praslin island) three weeks before the due date. Now for most people this isn’t too much of an issue, as they will have friends or family living there that they can stay with. Well, we didn’t have that option and so we had to find accommodation for me to stay in. My husband would have to stay on Praslin as he would still be working. Luckily for me my mum and dad were coming over so I had some company and some help if I needed to get to the hospital. Of course also for just general help while I was a big ball of a pregnant lady! So accommodation booked for 5 weeks (3 weeks before and allowing up to two weeks after due date before I would be induced)
Ive been tagged by both my petit canard (who came up with this lovely new tag) and YouBabyMeMummy to share my definition of what love is 🙂 So here it is 🙂 Love is…….. Family time; an evening walk on the beach, swimming, or a […]
