A Birmingham surprise trip | One on one time with Jacob

by StaceyUpdated on June 13, 2016June 13, 2016

A few weekends ago I was supposed to be attending a blog conference in Birmingham, but unfortunate circumstances meant I no longer had a ticket – or it seems, I didn’t have one in the first place (long story!). However, I had already booked a non refundable train and hotel, so no matter what, I was going to Birmingham anyway, even if it was just for an evening alone and a peaceful shopping trip! In the end, I decided to take Jacob and have some one on one time. I had been promising to take him on a train for ages, …

I no longer go to collect him from nursery dreading what they are going to feed back to me that he has done this time.

Little man J at 2 years 4 months old

It seems that I wrote J’s last update forever ago – maybe because I’ve only been doing it 2 monthly, and N’s updates monthly. Since then, he has developed a lot – he is learning so much. His independence is growing more & more. He now asks to wash his hands when playing outside and before he eats. He asks to brush his teeth – he used to hate it – though sometimes he does suck the toothpaste off rather than brushing! He is still a great big brother and becoming closer to N every day. He has started showing …
