Holiday High






I've been on holidays for a week now and my time with Cooper and Peter has been divine. Being on holidays together reminds me in some ways of the time we had last summer when I was on maternity leave and Peter was off for the summer. It as a crazy time at points because we had a "newborn" but it was also a lazy time - we really enjoyed the simple life last summer!


This holiday is a good mix of fun and relaxation. We headed to the beach first for a couple of days at the Oakwood Inn with Nan and Gramps. They were thrilled to have us come, and I am thrilled to be able to share my childhood holiday destination with Cooper. We had a great time splashing in the pool and digging in the sand. Overall a great time!


Cooper really enjoyed the pool and was great with wearing his lifejacket - no fussing what-so-ever! He likes to "jump" in the pool (from seated position) and kept saying "gan...gan...gan" which we finally figured out means "again!"


He was a complete ham in the restaurant and really mastered the art of the "high 5" during dinner...as well as the "cheers" between sips of his bottle. He was a riot and a really great little traveller. He slepted beautifully and overall we had a wonderful time and look forward to many happy memories in the "Bend" with our happy family!
