A chance to chill in the sun with my boy ❤️
Knit number 8 went to it's new home this week! It's a hufflepuff scarf.
One year ❤️
Oh wow, what an amazing day! @naythorpe and I baptised our lovely Sophia and we are amazed by the love and support from so many people!
Yesterday, our shared leave ended. We've got enough holiday built up to look after Sophia together until she starts nursery in September, but this season is officially over. Yesterday, we had lunch at the pub with friends, Sophia and I napped on the sofa together and then we all went to the park. It was perfect.
Last night, @naythorpe and I went out properly for the first time since Sophia was born and it was absolutely fantastic! We went to the 275 year celebration of St Peter's Formby and had a really great time. It was lovely to catch up with so many people!
