Fresh air, muddy shoes, grass stains, and lots and lots of toddling. You can tell that the weather has vastly improved this week, as five out of the seven photos were taken outdoors.

At the playground. Call it a belated Mother’s Day shot, as I forgot to get any of us together on the actual day itself.

Sweet dreams at nap time.

Holding my hands up, I forgot to take a photo until right at the last hour.

Just pottering around with no trousers on, as you do.
So, I know I was going on last week about Arlo not being able to use the garden in its current state. But I let him out there as I was hanging the washing, and he really surprised me with how well he manged in what I had described as ‘a health and safety nightmare’.
It’s definitely not baby proofed, but perhaps I was being a bit too over cautious before.

I wanted to attend this one-off parenting group thing that clashed with Arlo’s nap time.
I thought I could get him down for an early nap. No chance. I thought I could get him down on the train. Hahaha, no chance. He spent the entire time bouncing up and down, saying, ‘Ooooh, choo choo!!’.
Here we are, just down the road from the venue, and he’d just fallen asleep. Typical.
Needless to say, that nap didn’t last very long.

Gardening day.
Those grass seeds are now planted, I’m really hoping we have a lawn in time for Summer.

I was kicking myself for forgetting to grab my SLR before we left for the garden centre. The late afternoon light was amazing and I could see so many potential shots.
Arlo had loads of fun toddling around all the pots and plants. It must have seemed like a giant maze to him.
