Darling Kay, we have had the most lovely weekend together with Daddy! We had lots of rushing about to do on Saturday - we had to pick up the tickets for Daddy's trip to DeMoines in November, and then off to M&S for some lunch and some grocery shopping. The weather was great all weekend - very bright and fresh and dry (for a change!) and you loved being out and about, walking around, getting carried by Daddy, going in the trolley, and just generally taking in the world about you!
On Sunday morning we got up and ready and headed off to Newcastle for the morning. It was another gorgeous, bright day, and we had you all wrapped up in your lovely red coat and warm, fleecy hat! The last day we went to Newcastle was on your first birthday, 6 months ago. That day you were in your pram and quite happy to sit and soak it all in - now you needed to be up and about and moving under your own steam!! We walked along the front, and you picked a wee daisy which you carried about with you, until you discovered some pretty stones on the beach which you decided you would rather have! We have brought 2 home with us for your keepsake box so you can see them when you are bigger and we can remind you of this wonderful day.
Eventually it was too breezy for walking, so we slipped into a wee cafe for some coffee and buns to warm us all up. You were absolutely pooped from all the fresh air and walking, and you were asleep within 10 minutes of getting back into the car. Daddy took some great photos of you this weekend, and it takes my breath away how grown up you are getting! Next time we head to the beach I am pretty sure we will have to bring a change of clothes, because you were showing plenty of interest in the pools and puddles, and very soon you'll be dipping a toe in whether we'd like you to or not I suspect!!

You look wonderful, Fiona! Toddler Kay never has taken a bad picture, so it goes without saying that she looks beautiful. Her red jacket is so pretty. Is she eating that daisy, or smelling it?
No, no, daddy is not supposed to visiting Iowa. He is supposed to be heading south!
Cute uniforms and hat. I just finish 2nd book (Dicey's Song) in 3
days..Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. It is nice but sad part about their momma died. I saw on website, The Homecoming have movie, I want watch that movie if I can find in library. Did you saw that movie before?
Amelie's smile is lovely like angel's smile.
Dear Fiona, that sounds like such a wonderful time. Amelie looks so cute in her hat and coat. Mary loves to pick up stone and pebbles. That is such a great idea to save them! Have a wonderful day. Hugs, Elena
What a beautiful picture of the two of you!!! I love the hat!!! It was quite breezy today here as well!
You need to know what delight I take in seeing photos of you!! It makes you feel closer! This pic of you two is adorable, and the one of Amelie with the daisy is just priceless!! I'd enlarge that in the sepia tones and hang it on the wall! A real smile maker there!!
Love you, and hope your week is just lovely, like you, sweet friend!!
BIG HUGS,
Becky
What a lovely weekend. And you're both so cute. :)
How sweet you look together at the beach! I feel sure she will want to visit the water next time ~ such a fascination with anything wet seems to be a part of toddlerhood and into 3 years. Have a lovely week together.
It is so good getting caught up with your blog and seeing how your sweetie is growing. It's good to see you in front of the camera as well!
I hope you are well and fine, and I can imagine that each day is a new adventure, as it always is for both a toddler and her mum.
