Big boy bed!

Today we put away the cot and gave Leo his first grown-up bed, as well as a trip to buy a duvet set. Happy boy!

No more nappies?

When Leo got up this morning he was very clear that he wanted to wear pants, not nappies, like his friend Ffion. And so, potty training has begun. He did very well and delights in putting on his Spider-Man and Cars pants. 

Although when he had a camera pointed at him he thought it would be very funny to take them off too. 

Topless dinner

Leo decided he needed to take his tshirt off for dinner

Mr Leo

Leo has recently discovered Mr Men books. He has done this both through listening to a CD from his cousins in the car and from books Daddy had when he was a little boy, like the one pictured. 

Smiles

When we got home Leo was excited to see his 5-year old neighbour in a big princess dress and tiara. 

Vroooom

Bank Holiday Motorsport at the Palace was a good afternoon out, watching old sports cars. 

"That one's black"

And a spot of wrestling

Greenwich Leo Time

P is for my perfect boy

We went to meet Granny and Gtandpa at the London Aquarium, where there was lots to see. And then on to Greenwich by boat

Granny and Grandpa treated Leo to an ice cream

And Grandpa treated Leo to some giggly playtime

As a bonus, he got to play with his friend Ffion when he got home. 

Brrr

Daddy felt lucky that Leo didn't get up until 6.30am, at which point he was in fine form with Mummy's glasses

And giving Daddy a pedicure

We went the Battersea Park children's zoo this afternoon. The best parts for Leo were the fire engine

..and building sandcastles in the playground

It was a much colder day than we expected and the picnic blanket came in handy. 

Haircuts

All three of us get haircuts today

Early start

Leo couldn't get back to sleep at 5.30, but (unlike his father) didn't seem too troubled about being able to get up for some early TV

More bathtime smiles

And this time, with added flannel 

Snailwatching

Do you like rain Toto?

I think he said no Mummy!

Bath laugh

A selfie sent to Mummy to cheer her up as she was stuck in train delays trying to get home. 

Carousel

Surprise!

Hobbledown

Leo and Mummy woke up this morning in the mood for an adventure..

We decided to go to Hobbledown Children's Farm near Epsom.

Leo liked making soup in the magical house..

He loved the huge indoor soft play.

He met some wallabies (and stroked a rabbit, guinea pig and rat).

He was very excited by the baby pigs!

And he loved bouncing up and down on the trampoline!

There was even a massive sandpit for hunting for treasure!

Leo went rock climbing!

"It was a busy day Mummy!"
