The second week of half term has been glorious.  On a last minute whim we decide to head off to see our family in Norfolk.  After catching up with as many friends as possible, we spent our third wedding anniversary together in Cromer.  The sun glared down on us, the light was crisp  and you loved all the seaside had to offer.  The waves were constantly a surprise to you, you ran in and picked up stones and then shrieked as the cold and frothy water chased you back up the beach.  You made your first sand castle and dug your toes deep into the sand before playing on the penny arcades and winning 100 tickets on your first attempt.
Those curious hands of yours are getting everywhere. You inspect everything with your eyes, then yours hand and then of course your mouth.  You are pulling things towards you, wriggling around and kicking madly. I even found you in your cot having turned yourself around 180 degrees the other day, I was quite confused when I went to pick you up.  You like all the different textures of things, especially the tickly softness of plants under foot and running through your fingers.  You continue to be as cool as a cucumber 99% of the time but have started crying when you are very very tired.  It’s a sure fire sign that you’ll be headed off to bed very soon.
