Rio by name, Rio by nature?

If you've ever popped by my blog before you will know that little Rio is ball obsessed. Its what made him take his first steps, say his first words, and what 70% of his day consists of. Therefore you will have noticed we never pass up the opportunity to take a ball out with us for the day & to make the most of the nice weather before the much needed rain and thunderstorms, we packed it under the pushchair and headed for the park.

The picture above is what we were greeted with. Everytime i tried to slide it out of his hands he woke up, grabbed it tighter to his chest and nodded back off again in contented sleep. Me & Craig took this as an opportunity to chat and relax on a bench infront of the pond watching the little ducklings..before it was time to jump in the car and go do the dreaded Asda shop that is!!

Im linking up with PODcast's whats the story?:

Free fun in the sun: at the park

 

 Im a big believer in the best days out /activities are the free/cheap ones. So instead of splashing the cash this summer, why not splash in the sea or the pool in the garden instead? Whether its a trip to the local beach or park, your sure to have fun creating and capturing memories!!

 

Day out at the park

Rio has now mastered walking/running on grass so it seemed like the perfect time to take him for a kick about at the park.

 

I love these little family days, i work saturdays now so a full day all together is rare and we like to make the most of it ..sometimes i wish Craig took these kind of photos of me with Rio too though ;)

 

A year ago today: Craig went back to work after his two week paternity!

Making the most of the sunshine

It's no secret that sunshine in England is as rare as _______.. i want to say rocking horse shit am i allowed to say that on here? Urm, fill in the blank with something rare of your choice. So when it made an appearance today i popped Rio into his pushchair and took him on his first trip to the park. I know i know, 10 months old and hasnt been? What a bad mother. This one even has ducks..bonus! Two birds with one stone and all that.

 

 



We both had such a lovely day :) ..baby group tomorrow if we are up and ready in time. Why do they make these things so early and at the other end of yonder?
