Play time!

I got to play with 2 babies this weekend! And Duncan even played with one of them! Vicki & Steve came round with Joe who is 9 months now. He hardly ever sleeps apparently and he doesnt stop moving! Which was tiring enough for an evening! I dont know how they manage it! Our house is also not baby proof as DVDs started to go everywhere! The other baby belonged to a friend of Duncans from work who we met at a BBQ on sunday. Lucy was nearly a year old and also v. cute and into everything. I salute all parents! 

Mia's naming ceremony

After getting my car fixed on saturday (yay!) we went up to Harrogate for Mias naming ceremony which was lovely. We even got Pimms & lemonade beforehand, and sandwiches and yummy cakes afterwards!! Mia was an angel and didnt make a noise. She looked very pretty in her lace dress which had been made from her grandmothers wedding dress! On the journey home only took 4hrs which is pretty good for a sunday night!

We're back!

Had a lovely time in the lakes. It only rained one day which was handy, so we did about 7miles walking a day, up & down steep hills! But it was worth it. The views are fantastic and I got fit! Although maybe all the sticky toffee puddings may have negated all my good work! We saw lots of sheep and I got my boat ride on Ullswater. And the best sticky toffee pudding we could find was at the Brackenrigg Inn in Watermillock. We'll do a link to photos soon.
