{Weekending}

Joining Amanda at Habit of Being for "Weekending"

She had just thrown her whole cheese sandwich to the ducks.
Well it kind of plopped about half a metre away from her feet and swilled around.
Then she wobbled ever so slightly and plopped herself  right next to it.

I love one year olds.

If the girls can find something to climb, they will climb it.

Matilda is my little dreamer.

She loves to live in her own quiet world of imagination.

I love this picture of her.

I love the way her gold green eyes gaze off to faraway places.

 Yesterday we took a trip to the beach.

It was lovely and warm with a cool gentle breeze blowing salty through the air.

The girls love searching for beautiful shells and stones and digging boats shapes into the sand.

It was perfect kite flying weather!

This little lady is becoming such a character!

She loves to do everything the other girls are doing and get herself really involved in whatever the activity of the moment is.

She took her trench digging very seriously indeed!

She also loves my sunglasses... and everyone elses shoes and hats, much more than her own of course

:)

The girls played in the waves till their lips were purple!

We are still enjoying our lazy Summer. I think today will be a quiet day of washing towels, hoovering sand, warm baths and garden play.

  2. I do adore seeing all your seaside photos. I find being at the beach touches something deep inside of me giving me strength. Silly I know, but true. Is the water cold there? I ask because you mentioned purple lips,; our water has been a steady 84 degrees, which I think is a little too warm.

  6. it sounds like a great way to spend the weekend. and i know about the growing up and growing independent bit. my oldest is spreading her wings and wanting to spread them further and further and this mama is just a bit breathless over it all.

  7. The water is cold Tracey :) But you get used to it pretty quickly. sometimes you can forget how cold it is and stay in a little too long :)
