It’s week 9 of Project 365, and the days are getting longer. Â Yay. Â That in itself is confusing N, so we have lots of conversations trying to explain that we can eat tea when it’s not dark! Â So we’ve been getting outside a bit more, if only staying round the farm and local.
Sunday, we went for a scooter and bike ride round the park in town, and I spotted the catkins out.
This week’s had a lot of Lego going on. Â We got sent some to review, so we had to build the first set on Monday. N does really well with the building side…the looking out for the correct pieces isn’t his forte.
Tuesday was a bit of a loony evening. Â N and his dad decided to build a den in the corner of the living room, so I grabbed a few photos of them mucking around. Â The photos weren’t great because of the light and distance using my phone, but I just love N’s cheeky face in this.
Wednesday was an evening of paper crafting. Â N always comes home from nursery with tonnes of paper, and maybe one squiggle on each page. Â So I started making some paper goodies for N to play with. Â Hours of fun.
Thursday I had to get a photo of N’s new shirt for Trendy Tot Thursday, but he wouldn’t give up playing with the paper bits from the day before. Â A few days later and they’ve got a few more bits of colouring on them, and are still intact.
Fridays are the only day that I pick N up at 3pm from nursery. Â It means he’s just in time to catch the men having tea break before going out with his dad for a bit. Â But yesterday, we missed them going out so I had to trudge (still in my decent shoes) down to the yard to catch his dad before he drove off in the tractor. Â Needless to say the calves all came to see us.
Saturday and N had a birthday party to go to, of one of his nursery friends. Â The party was at the business park down the road from us on a farm site, in one of the units. Â The kids had a great time, and when a real tractor was brought over for them to have a sit on. Â I’m not sure N was that excited given it was the same as one of the tractors at home, but he did have a couple of sits on it later. Â And I really enjoyed meeting several of the nursery mums. Â Usually you just know the children, so it’s nice to get to know another of the mums of a child that’ll likely go to the same school as N.

Fab photos! Looks like you had a great week x
I love your Thursday picture, love how he’s so absorbed in his task.
Looks like a great week. You can’t beat a trip to the park and a farm visit. We always get left carrying the bloomin scooter! #365
I ended up carrying the bike while he used my scooter. Today was better because he just took out my scooter, and then was happy to run alongside while I had a go.
awww i love the catkins .. spring is on the way Emma! 🙂 lovely photos this week 🙂 x
Yep, spring is hopefully here (well, after the snow showers that might arrive this week)
I’d seen a few catkins out but yesterday I went into the garden and our neighbours tree is suddenly full of them – I’m sure they appeared overnight! Roll on spring….
I am so excited about the days getting longer! It’s so nice to see spring on the way!
I think Monkey would have been very impressed with that tractor. He got that Lego set for his birthday, give it a year and N will surprise you with building it to instructions #365
Awww, his face at the end…tractor?! Meh! 😉 So nice to see the catkins out, hooray for Spring 🙂
Awe, my two would love the tractors! Awesome! How cool to have a party to attend on a farm!
Well, it was on the business park really, which is owned by the farmers. It was a tad muddy walking to the unit, and a bit muddy. But nice to have the tractor come
