Two Months






Baby's first Ikea trip!






Despite his expression here, Paul really does like bathtime!



I love playing with his crazy hair



 Paul always gets excited when George is around!




















On the day before the last day of school, we had a teacher training day, so I got a little "trial run" of how it would be to look after both boys all day






Temple Newsam was closed, due to the lockdown, so we went on a walk to see lambs instead






George's first day of home learning

He's been doing a lot of building and playing with boxes

The teacher posts 3 videos each day--a maths lesson, a phonics lesson and a story. This was a shape hunt--George found a cylinder!

George found a circle!

We do a "number of the day" and come up with all of the pairs that could be added together to make that number

We've been getting into gardening, with all of this extra time at home!

George and I built this awesome den and he brought his stuffed animals inside for a "party"!

The COVID-19 lockdown started just a few days before Paul turned 2 months, but we managed to get a few fun things in before everything changed. We went to Ikea, had coffee out at Starbucks & Caffe Nero, went to Skipton and Ilkley, went to a La Leche League meeting, shopped at the garden centre--so many little mundane things that we can't do anymore!
