It’s Friday, so it’s time to link up with the lovely Jocelyn from The Reading Residence and decide on my Word of the Week #WotW.
This week has been a bit strange, apart from some bad teething moments, it has been quite good and yet I have felt quite low at times. In an attempt to shake off the blues we have done lots of;
We have played in the garden; exploring her new space and her new paddling pool. We have taken a bike ride to our fabulous local playground, had a couple of drives out to explore some new parks and had fun with our friends at the big park in town.
I love that a simple trip to the playground is such a great event for Baby. It reminds me to cherish the everyday things, that you can take for granted. She gets such joy from running around, swinging, spinning and climbing. She even met the most wonderful dog, who she didn’t want to leave. She loves speaking to strangers, which teaches me to be braver.
I love watching her take in all these experiences. How she gets braver the more she grows. Watching her interactions with the children she meets, the unashamed confidence and joy that only the smallest people have.
So what have you been up to this week? Which word would sum it up?
Enjoy my posts? Why not
Why not check out my previous words.

Free fun is always a winner in my book! I am glad you have been having fun also hun. Have a fabulous weekend xx
Looks like she had loads of fun 🙂 It’s great how a simple park is so fun for them! My little one could sit on the swing for absolutely ages and his smiles still as big as when he first got on! #binkylinky

Baby is the same, she adores the swings, we often have tears when it is time to come off x
That’s the best bit about having a baby isn’t it? They make the little things so very big and amazing and special. Lovely pictures xx
Author
Thanks hun, yes definitely seeing the joy in the simple things xx
Children can have so much fun playing in the park!
What one word sums up my week? Universal 😉
Author
It is like a major event for them 🙂 Wow great word! x
It can be hard to stay happy all the time, but the sunshine makes a difference,.
Author
Some days are just low, but I guess thats the nature of the beast. Sun makes such a difference x
A lovely word, though I’m sorry to hear you’ve been feeling low. My kids love going to the playground, too. Always a great source of excitement! Thanks for sharing with #WotW and I hope that next week’s a better one for you x
Author
Thanks hun, sure I will feel better soon. We are just about to hit another playground, when Baby wakes up that is! X
Great word! Oh wow! It sounds like you’s have been busy!

Author
Thank you so much hun, it’s the weekend nearly so that always makes me happy xxx
Playong is a great way to banish the blues. Hope you’re feeling happier, lovely photos!
Author
Thank you hun x
Such a lovely age 🙂 You will love having this record of her early years when she has grown up!
Author
I am so grateful to have this x
Great word, I think as adults we don’t do enough playing and make the mistake of thinking it’s just for kids. More play, more fun for everybody, makes life worth living.
Author
Definitely more play for adults is needed here! x
Looks like playing was lots of fun, I so need to start this linky again
Author
Lot of fun, it is such a good linky x
Awww love your photos!! I took my 2 to the park yesterday and they had 2 hours of outdoor time and lots of fun! 🙂
Author
Thanks hun! She had such a ball. Glad your had fun too x
Ah – this is lovely – so many gorgeous photos! I think the word that sums it up for me is ‘battles’ unfortunately…
Author
Thank you. Oh no! We have had a few of those too x
wow looks like a fun week but sorry to hear you have had low moments. Such beautiful pictures too, great memories. #WotW
Author
Thank you, sure it will pass. x
Ekkk so cute just look at them playing 🙂
Author
They are so cute, little partners in crime x
Aww I agree that such simple things make little ones so happy! I took mine to an expensive play centre the other week which was rubbish and I actually just wished I’d gone to the park. The Kids would’ve been just as happy and I’d saved a ton of money!!
Playing would sum up our week too! Got to love the Summer hols 🙂
Author
Such a good word 🙂 x
Looks like you had lots of fun at the park, pictures are great!
Author
We did thank you x
My toddler loves going out to play too! That’s all they really need to have a good time.
Author
Simple days are usually the best x
What a great word of the week – I think we should all take some time to have a bit of fun. x
Author
Thanks, yes you are right x
We are struggling with teething here too – taking him out does seem to distract him a little
Author
Same here, hope it passes for Sebastian soon x
Just the best word for when they are little. So much nicer than say, cranky 🙂
Author
She just has so much fun when outside playing x
I love parks! Sadly we don’t have any decent ones within walking distance and we don;t have a car at the moment so not getting out to them very often. Hope this week is a bit better for you x
Author
Ah that’s a shame. Thanks hun x
Playing is what we are constantly doing too in our household. From the most simple things to going out to the playground and having a blast. This weather is really giving. Making playing more fun and more enjoyable to my kids and obviously to your as well =) #wotw
Author
Yes a sunny day makes all the difference x
Sorry you’ve been feeling a bit down, but that’s a great word for your week and it certainly looks like Baby has had a lot of fun 🙂 #WotW
Author
Thanks hun, she does love a good park! x
Such a cute post. We were at the big park this weekend – it’s quite nice there on a sunny day isn’t it. I find babies and children brilliant for pushing the bravery boundaries too. Xx
