Little Miss had Friday off, one of the inset days at school. After getting rid of a pesky headache that sprung out of no where , we all decided to take Dextie out . Little Man goes to school nearby so we decided to go to Aberporth beach and afterwards collect Little Man from school.
It was crisp but none of us had coats on, just warm tops . We have driven through Aberporth lots of times but never been on the beach. First as we hadn't had lunch Little Miss asked for a bag of chips, well we had 2 bags that we shared , so they warmed us up nicely. The fresh air blew the last bit of the headache away and it was nice for both of us to spoil , tease and have fun with little miss. She loves and adores "baby brother" but as we do we like to have time to just have special times with each of them . Last week DH has little man to himself and me little miss...and today she had both of us!!! She is nearly as tall as me now and I'm 5'9 and not 12 until December. Her feet are bigger than mine , already a size 7 , and I laugh and show mock disapproval when she "steals" my scarfs and necklaces. She is such a girly girl and DH says when he hears me moan "not again" ( laughing of course) when she wears something of mine , he just thinks what the "best" doctors told us to expect for her, their prognosis wasn't worth the paper it was written on. She is everything they told us she would never ever be. She talks, she walks , she can understand, write, read... She is her own person and well words cannot describe how wonderful that is.
I have to say this beach at Aberporth was rather lovely. A lot of beaches around here are stoney but this one was very sandy. The cafe is open every day except Monday's and Tuesday's (out of season)
so I think we will be coming here a lot more in the future, especially if on cold days you can grab a
coffee and admire this, whilst pupster does what pupster loves to do which is run and run and run!

A coastal path.
We didn't do it this time but this path is apparently
a lovely walk
and is safe and fenced off
I think we will explore more next time
Pupster in action!!!
A buoy , and we found it like this
Though it did look like
Dexter had had a chew!!!
I can only imagine what that house is worth on the cliff
(Top left of the picture)
Wow what views that must have...
We were there about a hour and pretty much
had the beach to ourselves.
These are the views from the car park
Afterwards we collected Little Man
from school for a change
his school is 19 miles from home so he is taken daily by
taxi so a nice surprise for him.
Oh he smiled when he saw me waiting for him
I got a huge kiss and hug xxx
"Oh sweetheart you've come to get me"
was his greeting
.........simple pleasures....
It was a nice treat for me too,
nice to see his teachers and see some
other parents ,
something you do miss when you
don't do a school run any more .
Of course as kids do Little Miss teased
Little Man that we had chips whilst he had been
at school !!!
So of course he wasn't happy about that
so to restore peace to our
household we had homemade chips and battered cod
for tea.
chips twice in one day is
very naughty
and not something I think we
have done before ??
Never mind we all had a lovely time.
See you soon
