Norwich Castle

Elise has been wanting to visit a castle for a few weeks now, each time she sees a church or castle she says, 'I want to go in there.' We decided to go and visit the Norwich Castle. We had a great time. Elise's favourite part were the princess dresses they had on display. She also got to wear a princess dress.

Norwich Castle is a museum so it had lots of things to see. We searched for a few dragons when we came out too.

Searching for dragons

We have been doing the dragon trail in Norwich. With over 80 to find our chances are slim to find them all but we have founds lots :)

Summer is in full swing......

We have so much to catch up on. Elise did her last session at St. Helens. I was really sad as Elise has done so well there. The staff have been amazing in helping her to settle and grow in confidence. Elise has loved her time there and I am so proud of her. I am hoping I have made the right decision to change her to Ghost Hill nursery. St Helens have said she can go back if Ghost Hill doesn't work out. This is Elise's key worker Sophie. She was the first person that Elise clung to the first few weeks.
 
After lots of tears of thanks and goodbyes (from Mummy) we headed off to Winchester to start our holiday. We spent 2 nights in a Days Inn so we could spend time at Peppa Pig world. We had a great time as a family. We met Peppa Pig and family. First Peppa Pig pjs.

Elise was queuing for a ride with daddy when I saw Suzy Sheep. I quickly asked her to run to me so she could meet her.
As soon as she'd met Suzy she ran back to join the queue for the Windy Castle ride.
 
All of us girls on Grandpa Pig's boat ride.
We went on Miss Rabbit's helicopter ride. Maya was so happy to have her very own seat.
Two cute pics of Eva and Elise too.

 
The girls all loved the muddy puddle splash area, especially Elise. I'm so glad we took time out for them to experience it. Paulton's Park was great for all the girls and we will hopefully  be going back at some point. There are around 7 rides in Peppa Pig World and then numerous rides in the main park. Elise's favourite had to be the rollercoster and possibly the water raft ride too. I was amazed at how brave she was.
After day 2 at Peppa Pigs world we headed to Somerset to stay with Auntie Ann. We had a good time and enjoyed a trip to Swanage beach and bowling. Elise won the game.
I did a little experimenting with the camera outside Auntie Anns.


I love spending time as a family. I will update on more adventures soon. We have lots to catch up on.

Meeting Cinderella

On Saturday the girls were invited to Leo's birthday party. They were very lucky to meet another princess, this time Cinderella.
Auntie Carina did an amazing job. As well as Cinderella there was also a disco bouncy castle which Elise had a great time on too. Maya enjoyed the party food and waving at every one. Eva loved all the cuddles the guests were willing to give her. :)
