We had a lovely holiday in France but I am glad to be back home with reliable wifi and a comfy sofa, and back in our big bed! I’m going to write a post all about our holiday but Toby was a little superstar the whole time we were away, he didn’t seem phased by living in a mobile home for ten days, eating al fresco or anything else. We had lovely weather for the most part too despite how it looks in this week’s Living Arrows photo. This one was taken alongside the harbour in Vannes after a tasty lunch and a wander round the shops.
We’re on holiday in Brittany this week and the campsite wifi is intermittent at best so it’s only a quick post for week 23 of the Living Arrows project. Toby has been a star this holiday, after three days of driving to get here and then lots of late naps and unusual meal times he seems to be coping much better with the changes to his routine than he did when we went to the Lake District last month.
So anyway, here he is, looking like a super cool dude in his new holiday cap!
All being well we should be on a ferry to France when this week’s Living Arrows post is published (I know, the wonder of the internet!). The last week has been one of last minute organising and packing (and yes, Toby’s passport did turn up in the end) and trying to remember that it really doesn’t matter if we forget something – they do have shops in France after all.
So anyway, I’m just going to give you this week’s picture without further delay – here he is, mon petit singe!
I can’t believe another month has gone by! Since last month I have finished (and passed!) my Spanish course and turned 36! We’ve been going to all our usual groups and classes – Toby is still doing well with his swimming, he’s enjoying plenty of space for crawling at Parent and Toddler group, and he’s now the biggest baby at Baby Sensory and I spend every week just chasing after him! This month for Toby though has been all about crawling and kneeling. He’s just started pulling himself up to standing too – my little boy is really on the move!
And today we are setting off on our first overseas family holiday, although today we’re only going as far as Blackpool! We sail to France on Monday morning (Toby’s passport finally turned up on Thursday so we can go after all!) and we have 10 nights on a camp site in south Brittany. I’m really looking forward to it…I’m just not really looking forward to the journey! Fingers crossed Toby doesn’t have a screaming fit in the car like he has done on our last few long trips.
So anyway, here we are, our May family portrait – all packed up and ready to go…
It’s been a fairly quiet week this week. Toby is STILL teething although one of the new teeth has cut through now and he doesn’t seem to be struggling quite as much. We should be getting excited about going on holiday next week but I can’t get excited until Toby’s passport turns up – it’s so stressful waiting to see if we get it in time! We’re ringing every day for updates and fingers crossed it will all work out OK. As long as it does then this time next week we’ll be on a ferry to France!
And so to this week’s photo in the I Heart Snapping Living Arrows project. Another close up this week – I just can’t resist his little face! Over the next few months I really want to try and take the camera out and about with me more – from looking at these Living Arrows photos you’d think we never went anywhere as they always seem to be taken in the house!
We’re now into week 20 in the I Heart Snapping Living Arrows project. This week has been another one of teething but Toby is being a trooper, as long as I keep him dosed up with Calpol and Nurofen. He’s also had a couple of days at home with Daddy this weekend; on Saturday I was in Dundee all day doing my Spanish exam and then yesterday I had a four hour dance rehearsal in the afternoon. So this week’s photo is one taken by Barry – Toby really doesn’t mind being in his play pen (thankfully!) but he does look a bit like he’s sad to behind bars in this shot!
