Lately... in instax

22 Aug 2012












I cant believe there are only 2 weeks left of the summer holidays already and Elizabeth will be starting 'big girl school' soon. Its just gone crazy fast!

I have really noticed the evenings getting darker the last couple of nights and lots of creepy crawlies appearing. Autumn is on its way! We have been trying to make the most of the remaining hols, spending time outside at the beach and in the garden whenever the weather is nice enough.

 
Thank you so much for all your lovely birthday messages on my last post. We are going to London for the day on Friday, as a birthday treat from Em. He has had it planned for months, but only recently let slip where we are actually going. I'm very excited, it'll be the most time we've spent together alone since before the kids I think!

  1. I agree with you - the hols have just flown by and I don't believe that I still haven't been to get a new uniform for KP! Love the photos!

  3. Have a lovely time in London .. it's so important to get a little time away without the little ones now and again ... it is lovely to spend them together and you will come back refreshed and contented ... Bee xx

    PS We have a saying here ... getting your head showered ... I think it sums up having the time to just be you again for the day .... xx

    1. Thanks Heather, I think we will be doing some touristy stuff as I had said to him ages ago I would love to go and do this! I always just seem to have gone on the tube straight to where we are going when I've been before! Think there might even be a tour! xx

    1. Thank you. Mine are actually ok, I thought they might be hurty but they were really comfy from the start. Are they Salt Walters, it said on my box if they rub you can wear them when damp and this will conform the leather to your foot. Have not tried it though! xx

  9. Ooh, have fun in London! Great photos, especially the one of the spades. We've noticed the nights are drawing in a little, it's dark by 8.30 now. And cooler in the mornings. I quite like it though. We are off shopping today for school shoes and uniform. How quickly the holidays have gone! x
