Summer is here and holiday - what's not to like!

Holiday - lazy mornings - sleepovers and dinner outside. Well, we've nearly finished the first week of holiday and the weather has been amazing. So the little tiny pool has been set up and we eat outside nearly every night. The children and I relaxe and have icecreams before lunch some days (don't tell the daddy) and they have a little swim in our tiny little blow-up pool. I watch Wimbledon and prepare dinner. Yesterday it was spicy chicken and roasted veggies. Yummy!
In 2 weeks time the daddy starts his holiday and we're off to England. We're all very excited.

She jumped.....

We went swimming again today.  Well, I'm just watching but the daddy, the little man and the princess did the swimming.  Both kids are now  confident swimmers enough to be in the deep end. Both loves jumping from the diveboards. You've seen the picture  of the little man jumping of the 1 meter. Here's the princess jumping off the 3 meter high divingboard.

He didn't like it for a long time.....

Now he has no fear and can't get enough... Oh, better mention what it's all about, don't I?
It's swimming. When the little man was little and up to the age of 3ish he did not like going swimming. He'd happily play in the bath at home but take him to the swimmingpool and he'd scream the place down.... Suddenly that changed and ever since he has been going often with the daddy. When he started school last year he started swimming every week. It's a totally fearless boy the daddy takes swimming now.

Finally....

Summer is here! Lets make the most of it then. So we did, today in the garden.

The 'pool' might be small but their imagination is big! They saw fish, crabs and things I've never heard of before.
Tomorrow, the weatherman is promising weather like today but even warmer. Do we dare trust his words!?!

Are you enjoying your summer wherever you are?

"Lets go swimming...."

"Yeah..." the screams were loud and long.... Bags were packed and off we went! The weather here today has been terrible. So cold, grey and rainy that outdoor activities were not what we felt like. Must say the screams of joy when the princess and little man were told we would go swimming instead, were delightful!

"1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10..... Please come up now!" She did, the princess, she loves diving and swims better completely under water!

Have you had a lovely Sunday?
