Review of 2012 and forward to 2013
Ok, so I got a bit waylaid yesterday in doing my 2012 review as we had a longer than planned car shopping/research session (boy, are some car salesman totally missing working out what a customer is actually asking!), a cheesecake disaster (should have stuck with my failsafe version I usually make), and an early ‘off to family’ tea. So just doing a quick look at what went on in the last year with N, and what I’m expecting in 2013.
From left to right, top to bottom
- Jan – N’s first birthday (and no, the cake wasn’t really THAT big compared to him)
- Feb – a couple of months of walking, getting a lot steadier on his feet
- Mar – Some good weather, and loving being outside
- Apr – Easter bonnet (he wasn’t keen, it was a bit girly) at our NCT Easter get together
- May – discovering the great things at the park and more outdoor play
- June – helping out Dad. Guess what, more opportunities to get outside.
- Jul – a trip to Sea Life Centre (I just love this pic)
- Aug – road trip and first time on the beach. Shame it was cold and about to rain, so no real playing
- Sep – chicken pox and annoying me while I’m trying to work. Thankfully such a mild case it was hardly in evidence.
- Oct- first proper haircut (shearing) at the barbers (and loving helping me cook)
- Nov – first trip to London with a visit to Hyde Park Winter Wonderland
- Dec – First christmas where he began to get excited and a trip to see the displays at Milton Keynes.
2013 will see N turn 2, move up to the next room at nursery, hopefully me find a new job quickly/that’s nearer home and more time spent together as a family. Oh and more blogging, plus I hope to get to Britmums Live (bought my ticket, just need to work out logistics).
My word, look at how he’s grown! A year at this age makes such a difference in their abilities. Love February, July, September and November, and I’ll see you at Britmums!
Thanks for linking up
It is amazing how they grow. Definitely hope to meet you at Britmums.
A lovely collection and so many fun ones from outdoors. Hope to see you link up with my weekly Country Kids linky with some of your 2013 outdoor fun.
Hope to. It’s all a bit farm/home based at the moment thanks to the weather.
