The Treacle Market...

On the last Sunday of every month, Macclesfield holds it's Treacle Market. This was the first time we went along and it was lovely.

To commemorate the event I treated you to a wooden racing car.

Barnaby Festival...

Every year Macclesfield puts on it's Barnaby Festival. This year Uncle Phil and I took you along to see what all the fuss was about.

We watched the Morris dancers (although we didn't really have a choice as they were right in the middle of the high street blocking it!) but you didn't like them and started to cry. The town is decorated in bunting and there are a few market stalls to peruse. Unfortunately, the weather was horrendous and we got soaked!

On the train...

A couple of weeks back we went on the train to Manchester. It was just a shopping trip really but we met up with your Dad at Starbucks for lunch.

Lunch with Auntie Becky...

Today we went for lunch with my friend Becca to John Lewis and you were as good as gold.

I bought you a boat to go in the bath and a bouncy dinosaur and Becca bought her son Marcus some pirate duplo.

Tatton Park...

Last Sunday was glorious, so you and I and Mum and Phil spent the afternoon at Tatton Park.

We wandered around the gardens and followed the art exhibition which was there. Afterwards we stopped by at the tea room before heading home. There was a mini fair there as well and I won a blue monkey for you haha.

First time on the swings...

It was a beautiful day today! We were at my Mum's as we had to let the floor man in to fit her new floor, but afterwards I took you and Luke for a walk and we stopped off at the park.

You were a little wobbly to start off with as you wouldn't hold on, but once you got the hang of it you were having a great time!

Feeding the ducks...

It was glorious again today so Hannah and I took you both to feed the ducks for the very first time!

First Mother's Day...

Our first Mother's day was today and we had a lovely time. I was spoilt by you and your father - I received a card from each of you, a gorgeous spotty tea pot, a purse, a 'Special Mummy' bracelet and tulips and daffodils which are my favourite!

Unfortunately Daddy was under the weather today so he couldn't join us at Gran's which was a shame as uncle Phil and I really outdid ourselves!

Phil was in charge of decorations and went a little mad with the bunting and I was in charge of the food.

The theme was an indoor picnic with a ploughman's for lunch with a choice of chocolate cheesecake, scones, vanilla slices or Gran's Victoria sponge for dessert!

After we had eaten, Phil was playing with you blowing some bubbles Mary & Patrick brought and you were trying to catch them - I didn't take any photos of it, but have it on video to show you.

Reservoir walk...

With the lovely sunny weather yesterday, I decided to take a trip up to Langley and have a wander around the reservoir.

Although don't let that sun mislead you, it was jolly cold!
