After a few busy weekends and a difficult week I was in need of a bit of a break this weekend so Daddy very kindly agreed to take charge with Monkey on Saturday. After a conversation with his mum on friday night it was agreed that they would go to a lovely country house – Burghley House near Stamford.
I stayed home but Daddy and Monkey went, along with Granny, Granddad and Uncle Simon, and they had a lovely time!
Monkey climbed on some fab logs and trees that are there for the purpose,
Some have had steps cut into them for kids to climb up, which is perfect for our little climber.
Monkey had so much fun running around everywhere,
and knocking on trees (of course)
Come with me Grandma!
I love this shot of him amongst the Daffodils!
And they ended the day with some lovely lunch and a cup of tea 🙂
So I got to have some lovely me-time while Monkey ran his daddy, grandparents and uncle simon a bit ragged! They all really enjoyed themselves though!
Hehe I love how they just have SO much energy and will run people ragged. Looks like he had a very nice tea at the end of it all 🙂
Ha ha I know, so much energy in such a tiny person! Would love some of that energy! 🙂 xx
amazing place and he look like he had fun!

It definitely worked out well for all of us! Daddy was under strict instructions to take some piccies for me 🙂 xx
Little people have such an insane amount of energy it hurts my feels most days. The photos you got were just gorgeous and I do love the photo of monkey in amongst the daffodils too.
