This weekend saw the second of Sprog’s adventures to London and was a big contrast to the last one. This time it was cold, super cold and we therefore required many more layers and therefore many more bags.
Bright and early we caught the train (9.00am, I’m telling you there was some super organisation to get us out at that time!) and straightaway Sprog was fascinated by 2 things; the view out of the window and the people behind/next to us. Luckily for us, he is pretty darn cute so when he hangs his head between the seats the people behind are generally not displeased or grumpy to see his grinning face!
When we eventually arrived at our destination, Sprog ate a little lunch, was amazed by my friends Christmas tree and had a failed attempt at a nap. We’d been thwarted on our journey up as he had closed his eyes as we pulled into the station!
Our primary aim for the day had been to do the annual trip to do Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park, which I had missed last year as Sprog was too little still. This is a quick snap of him needing a run around before we went into Hyde Park.
Mulled cider…enough said!
This was one of the highlights of my day…melted milk chocolate on a warm Belgian waffle, it was truly divine and hit the spot of mid afternoon hunger.
At one stage, I looked down at my hands to see Iggle Piggle. How he got there, I don’t remember. How long I’d been holding him, I don’t remember. But I do know that I didn’t feel like a complete tit when I realised and it just struck me instead that my life was just incredibly different since the last time I’d visited Wonderland.
Not a Wonderland snap but Sprog was a superstar all day (apart from the small amount of screaming when he’d got so tired that he’d couldn’t handle it!) and to cap it all off, he ate properly! Not normally a big deal but for the last couple of weeks he’s been pretty fussy where he’s not felt 100% and he ate his pasta and…the mince! Cause for a small celebration!
I love Winter Wonderland, not been in so long as I always seem to have a newborn! Hopefully next year I can take the girls. So magical! x
We did have a lovely time although i think we may do something different for our festive london day next year, its just so busy with a very small person
This sounds like a really lovely day (and he is damn cute!). The waffle looks pretty tasty too….
That waffle looked amazing!! 🙂
Glad you had fun and he was such a good boy!!
Ahh, looks like you had a lovely time! I am a little jealous 😉 We have been meaning to go up to London too to see the lights and festive activities but toddler has been ill. Boohoo x
It was lovely, and I enjoyed seeing my girls but i think nect year we’ll avoid Wonderland as it’s very busy with a tiny person!
That waffle!
What an awesome trip =) #MagicMoments
I would love to go to Winter Wonderland. Glad you had a nice time and sprog ate! x #MagicMoments
I’ve seen several posts of Hyde Park on my Country Kids linky it looks really magical. I hope you enjoyed it.
Aww lovely! I’ve never been to Winter Wonderland before, but it sounds like it’s worth going just for the waffle 😉
Thanks for linking up to #TWTWC xx
