Holiday Monday and Tuesday

So you guys already know what happened on my holiday on Saturday and Sunday. So I am here to talk to you about Monday.  So on Monday me and Jake decided to go and explore the town that wasn't far from our park.  We had already walked to it on Sunday night but this time we decided to take David along with us especially as it was a nice day.  We wanted to take him along to the funfair that was near us as so far he hadn't been impressed by the baby rides that were in the amusements.

Socks off (wouldn't keep them on lol) and looking bored haha.
There wasn't many people when we went in through the gates so we decided to try again later.  Instead we went into the town that was near and go on a bit of an adventure.  Whilst walking up to the town there was some building going on and I walked along the pier telling David about the different kinds of trucks and building vehicles.  They were building a new marina and put up progress pictures which was pretty cool.  So after that we got into town and me and Jake were thirsty and it was time for David's lunch.  We went saw this little cafe and sat outside as it was such a nice day.  The cafe was sooo cute and it had crafts you could buy as well as lunch to keep boredom at bay.  We got David a "kids tray" and my god I was sooo impressed.
After that we decided to go back to the funfair and not much had changed =/.  Not only that but there weren't many people a the booths and I hate  funfair workers that go to another ride to chat to people I find it irritating as they are supposed to be working.  I did find this little train ride and although it looked a bit boring for wee man it had lots of scenery for him to look at.
So on Tuesday we went to the swimming pool with David. He got a bit freaked out at first but he soon got a bit more relaxed it helped when I pulled funny faces in his spider man doughnut haha. He got a bit restless after a while because before we went he was tired bless him.  So we took him out the pool and dressed him and handed him to my parents who were sitting down beside the pool so me and Jake could send time in the pool ourselves.  After that we took him home and put him down for a little nap and went out to play air hockey and mini golf.  Hehe good for me as I won both of them! Wooohoo girl power!

I of course had a celebration drink hehe.  After that fun we went back to get David to take him tot he park.  He had lots of fun going down the slide (even trying to climb back up it haha) and also mastered the rocking horse type thing (I can't remember what they are called) here are some pictures of him playing in the park. 



After that we decided to take man on another ride in the arcade one that he actually like as it was random and had buttons on! Haha, a video of him enjoying the ride can be found on my Youtube.  Later that day I went to bingo with mum and Jake as we had a bit of luck and boy did we!  Our table all ended up winning and not only did we get our money back but also what we had spent that whole day!  Bargain!  I was actually a bit scared that some of the grannies that were in the room would end up trying to kill me lmao.  I will post Wednesday and Thursday in a few days.

Holiday Saturday and Sunday

So right now I'm on holiday in Wales and I'm having the time of my life :D.  The first holiday I have had with my own little family.  What is great though is that my parents are here with us too which means not only do I get to spend an amazing time with my son but I also get to spend some alone time out and about with Jake my fiancĂ©e.  We got here by train as there wasn't enough room really for all of us and I wanted to bring the trike with us as well. I didn't mind though as me and Jake got to spend some time in London just the two of us.  We  managed to buy some Bubble Tea and Sushi which was fantastic!

We went to Regents Park too where there was a cute and over friendly squirrel. He/she followed some ladies about which was quite funny to watch.  We then headed to Paddington Station, I've never been there before but it was quite big kind of like Waterloo nice though.  I also spotted the Paddington Bear shop, I didn't have enough time to go in the shop whilst we were there but I will probably go in there when we go back on Friday. The train journey was very pleasant and I loved watching all the scenery as we went past it.  I love nature so for me it was a very nice trip.

My outfit for the day
We arrived at the station right on time and then decided to take a trip to Asda.  Everyone is so nice here so far and we have had no problems with people. When we got to our caravan it was nice to see how much space we have.  Plenty of room for David to walk around with his walker (even if he does try to run us over with it haha).  On the first day we were here we didn't really do much though me and Jake went around the amusements to play on some of the machine. We took David to the Splash Park, though he wasn't that amused and was rather clingy haha.  He kept wanting to touch it but I think he didn't like the feel of it which is a bit odd and he loves splashing with water. I think he was tired though as it was after 5 oclock and that's when he starts getting tired for bed bless him.


That was pretty much it for the first day.  On Sunday we went to the beach, it was lovely cause it was a beach that was hidden BUT it was also annoying cause it had loads of blooming pebbles and stones arghh lol.  David had plenty of fun though playing with the sand...eating the sand *facepalm*.  Also playing in the water, we tried to keep him standing for as long as possible but there was no stopping him from crawling in the water and sand but he had lots of fun and it was really hot so he still stayed warm.  After we then went to a Tea Room and Oh-My-God it was amazing!  Not only was the food served on vintage plates but the amount of food and quality was soo good.  If I lived in Swansea I would defiantly of gone there more then once a month.  Quite ironic though as were it was near where I went when I was younger when I was part of a youth group AND my sister had actually been in there herself when she was part of the same group when I was older.

2 servings but my god look at the size of that cake!

David checking our waitress bum ¬_¬ pervert!
At night me and Jake went for a nice romantic walk and managed to walk two whole beach lengths!  We saw that there was a funfair within walking distance so we decided to take him there the next day.  It was such a lovely night out and it didn't get cold which was lovely.  We also spotted a few more arcades as well which was good.  I could tell you about Monday but I'll leave that until tomorrow so I have stuff to talk about ha ha.  As you can see we have packed lots of things into all our days!  Never a boring day with us,  can't wait until Wednesday we are going to Cardiff to go to the Doctor Who experience.
