The Snowdrop Walk - 2014

It's become a bit of a tradition at this time of year to do the snowdrop walk - but this year there was a little bit of a difference. Due to hectic social calendars, we couldn't meet up with our friends, the H family, but we did have the addition of our mutt to keep it entertaining.

 

It's becoming ever more difficult to get pictures of our three loons together. I noticed today that the eldest does that thing his dad does where he tries to shrink to fit other people. On the one occasion I did ask him to crouch down, his littlest brother decided to copy the body position, and therefore ruining the shot. I guess this is why they say never to work with children...

 



 

To explain the last picture, C would not let go of that dog lead for the whole walk. Even when he was falling on his face in the park afterward, he was still holding it as if his life depended on it. That'll explain the state of his knees.

 

R got a special Saturday night treat too - he got to stay up and watch telly with dad for an hour after the others went to bed. Won't be too long before we are going for a beer....

It's Official...

...Roary the Racing Car trumps Thomas the Tank Engine!

C is rather triumphantly showing off his Roary "big boy pants" before bed time, which, for the first time (we are on day four) are the first pair that have lasted a whole day. He's clearly feeling rather proud of himself, and why shouldn't he be? We went to Toddlers this morning, had a walk in the park straight after and another walk in the woods with the dog before school pick up. That's a successful days potty training in my book.



Back on Day 1, which seems a long time ago, we sent mum this selfie at work, which rather appeals to her. It's only right to include it on the blog for the book when it comes.

Days 1 and 2 consistently mainly of this...puppies are great for passing the time. How exactly did I do it with the other boys??
