95. Easter Sunday and while there are more arty photos from this day, I just had to choose this one which sums up the gorgeous chocolateyness of the day. Once I checked the screen on my camera, it instantly reminded me of Easter Sunday four years ago.
96. We took my nephew with us to Dyffryn Gardens for what was a fairly badly organised Easter egg trail, but the boys had great fun there. Afterwards we headed off to Southerndown for a good splash around in the warm air, spades and buckets were ignored in favour of making sand meatballs and piling them high up into the waterflow down the beach.
97. An ordinary day playing in the garden in the brilliant sunshine, are there any better days of childhood?
98. The Boy dressed himself today, he decided on a pair of shorts and a short t-shirt, of course they were paired with long socks, because he's 5.5 and can wear what the hell he likes. He's really perfecting the 'hanging upside down and scaring the hell out of his mother' lark.
99. We headed to my sister's house with our sister-in-law and for a catch-up between all four cousins. They decided to spend part of the afternoon in the hot tub, which The Boy absolutely loved!
100. Yesterday The Boy and Mr. TBaM had been trying to make a raft from the bamboo around the water feature, and today The Boy decided to try and continue making it. I love his coopy-down stance and the little shorts, grazed knees, long socks rolled down, and the floppy Summer hat; pure childhood.
101. Trying tapas for the first time; very proud of him!

It looks like he's had a brilliant week off school. Love his droopy goggles over his face and the concentration as he tries his tapas.
Love the hanging upside down photo – he looks like a little Spiderman there! Great chocolately photo too!
Lovely photo's as usual and well done to him for trying Tapas. I wish my two were keen to have their photo's taken! I love seeing your pics each week!
A lovely week of being a boy in the sunshine! I would hang upside down if I could! I'm a bit little yet x
Good to see that he's having a great holiday – love the joy on the face of that hot tub pic.
Love the photo of the boys making sand balls, and that bottom picture really does sum up happy childhood – he is so engrossed in his task!
It looks like you have had some lovely time together in the sunshine this week. I love tapas.
Great photos, looks like someone else has been enjoying the fantastic weather =D
Yes, simple days in the garden ARE the best and I need to tell myself that more often!! 🙂 Love tapas! Must check out Lidl more. Keep smiling this week x x
Certainly looks like a top week! Lovely photos x
looks like a great half term
Looks like a great week made even better by chocolate Easter Eggs 😀 x
aaa so much fun being had and how cool does he look in his sunglasses!! Think the hanging upside down photo has to be my favourite this week x
I love the bamboo shot too. So engrossed. Looks like a great week of adventure. Tapas too, wow. #365 x
aww i love that he tried to carry on with the raft! .. if looks like you guys have certainly made the most of the holidays 🙂 x
WOW! Chocolate, shades and goggles – what could be better than that! 🙂
i guess he was going for the footballer look with the shorts & long socks combo?
Loved photos – great one on the beach, and love the goggles one. Looks like he's loving life just as children should.
I'm dreading the day when N takes over choosing his clothes. He has no idea of what colours go together, would live in jogging trousers or scruffy jersey shorts. Oh dear. Going to be interesting.
I am loving all of the outdoor play! Our week was also dominated by the sun and garden. My favourite picture has to be the first one with the chocolate egg 🙂 x #project365
My 5 year old also dresses himself with slightly dubious fashion sense but as you say, they can pull it off at that age! I'm jealous of the hot tub too!
Great collection of photos from
This week. The sun makes all the difference. Looks like The Boy has had a great time x
I knew at a glance he was building a raft!
what lovely photos, looks like the boys really been enjoying the lovely weather we had this week x
Fabulous! So much sunshine, just wonderful. Love the shots of The Boy in the garden, especially that last one x
The raft building is a classic – he clearly watched not only how to go about building but how to act while doing it. Brilliant
Fabulous pictures in glorious outdoor light. You capture such lovely angles and moments. Love the recalling of the younger picture with the egg!
looks like you had a lovely week x
I love how he's outdoors in pretty much all the photos. I love the Tapas photo he looks so grown up
Awesome photos as always. Thats a whole lot of eyewhere!
I look forward to the day my kids get a bit more into different foods…not just fish finger sandwhiches!
The Boy has such cool sunglasses. My two never keep theirs on!
what a shame it was badly organised. glad they enjoyed it anyway. love the upside down picture
Love his face devouring that chocolate. I think Z has taken after me, he doesn't really eat it, we have two full eggs just sitting in our kitchen!
It looks like summer came to your neck of the woods this week – yay! Loving the facial expressions and dare-devil antics on the climbing frame this week 🙂
Looks such fun, chocolate, play, hot tubbing-Happy Belated Easter. It was Greek Easter on Sunday just gone.
Great photos – the essence of childhood captured! 😀
I love his cheeky face with the chocolate! And hot tubs are one of the best things ever!! x
oh the innocence of childhood, and if you are going no further than the garden why worry? Love the meatball making, great imaginations. Nice to get together with their cousins, and well done on trying the tapas
Sounds like a great week, Love the upside down one,
Little boys are so fearless aren't they, my Monkey is the same!
Great photos 🙂
Yeah the hanging upside down and getting into precarious situations are done purely to get your heart in your mouth!!
'Coopy-down' – I've not heard that expression for years.
Ooh love tapas! My eldest prefers to dress himself nowadays too!
