Today we went to a birthday party. Little Miss Chatty was celebrating her 2nd birthday with soft play and then party food. When I was telling The Boy about this last night, he was able to tell me straight-away that you have cake and 'b(all)oons' at a party. We talked about the fact that there would be a bouncy castle there which he wasn't sure about, and that he'd give her a present.
As it so happened another work colleague was there with her little boy who is slightly older, Mister Rough and Tumble, and The Boy thought he was the best thing since sliced bread! Or since bubbles anyway, he doesn't really have an opinion on sliced bread. He followed him everywhere and had great fun trying to copy everything he did!
After he'd filled his Doodles with party food, we trotted off to Barry Island for half an hour playing in the sand building sand castles. It was a little parky and full of tourists. I think we'll be giving it a wide-berth on weekends until September!
Barry Island is real! I don't think I knew that x
William also loves older children, can't wait til he and Esther are ready for soft play x
but how lucky to have the beach so very close. I love the seaside and miss it terribly.

Glad you had a great time. Does he call balloons boons? That is the cutest thing ever. Can't wait to visit that beach! I'm sure my boy will look at your big boy and try and copy everything he does!! Cant wait!x
Great Pictures..
Looks like another fantastic day. I bet The Boy slept well that night! x
Sounds like a great fun filled day. Jackson's bay next to Barry Island is quieter.
Hi, thanks for the comment. I have heard it's quieter but difficult to get down to with a pushchair etc. We've just discovered the old harbour beach as well.
