^^ he told me I was his best friend the other day and when I kiss him goodnight he tells me 'you are the best mummy in the whole wide world'…I'm cherishing this time when he is a mummy's boy ;) ^^
^^ Wilf has a new ride! Review post coming soon ^^
^^ a little cosy spot for his dinosaurs ^^
We had a fairly chilled weekend this weekend just gone. I took a break from deadlines and hung out with some friends on Friday evening which was much needed. With a slightly fuzzy head on Saturday we decided to just stay local visit the park, explore in the wood and head home for naps and a lazy afternoon.
On Sunday I visited a vintage wholesalers and picked up a few bits for the shop (yep I'm sharing this time not just keeping for myself ;)) so I'll be adding those as soon as I have a spare minute! We had coffee/babyccino's at Bocca Bar which was the first time we had visited, it's a great space, I'm looking forward to returning and trying out their eggs benedict. Wilf took a few of his dinosaurs which came in the box of old toys my parents sent us, seriously this child has more toys than a playgroup these days! He's really gotten into imaginative play lately and uses his dinosaurs and plastic animals in various scenarios, I love hearing the little conversations he makes them have with each other.
After coffee we headed into town to meet family and grab a bite at the MShed before headed home for the afternoon. Lately I have been feeling utterly exhausted so I even napped on Saturday and Sunday when Wilf did. Maybe it was a sign as he has refused him nap ever since, I'm so not ready for him to drop them!
I've had a few questions lately about the camera and editing I use for my pictures. I actually upgraded from a Canon EOS 550D
to a 700D 
last week, mainly because I want a DSLR that has video capacity too. I loved my 550 but I have to say you can really tell the difference in quality with the upgrade!I use RedLab* to edit all my pictures :)
If you want to hear about some of the apps I use you can see my little video here

Glad you liked Boca Bar, I need to give it another go. The one time we went, a Sunday, it was overrun with children, in fact it was like a soft play with roast dinner.
What a lovely idea, seems like you had a weekend full of fun and quality time together!
I love that apron! Looks almost like a dress! Beautiful.
What lovely pictures you take Fritha. So full of colour and character. I just love coming to your site

I love this post and you always take the best photos. We have only been to Boca Bar once and loved it so I must go back. You always make me want to get out and take more photos! :) x
Your photos are always so beautiful. I always have little plastic dinosaurs in my pockets and bags! Ebony is really into imagination play too at the moment, it's lovely :) x
I've never looked at Anthropologie but I will now! Liking the idea of that little bakery book :)
Gorgeous photos as always. Sounds like a chilled and yet productive weekend. :-) x
Sounds like a lovely weekend! That's such a sweet thing for Wilf to come out with, the other day the proclaimed (loudly!) "Mummy, you're a superhero!" I was pretty chuffed with that!
I would be happy with any of these for Mother's Day!! Might have to leave this page open as a big hint!! ;)
looks like a wonderful time! I'm loving that stroller too :)
Beautiful pictures! I love the one of you and Wilf in his new ride (which looks fab!) looks like a lovely weekend x
I love Anthro too. I am currently lusting after their bedding.
Wilf's new pushchair looks very snazzy! I love seeing what people have done over a weekend - so nosy ;) Sounds like my kind of weekend. I so want your camera!!
looks like a perfect weekend :D I'm thinking of upgrading my camera too, this one's old and getting a little unreliable, having video option on it too would be amazing
I daren't look at anthro full stop! ha!!
Love the intense color in these pictures!

Swoon, have never heard of them and am trying to resist going and having a look as I know I will just end up buying everything! What a gorgeous collection you have put together here x
Beautiful pictures and I adore the crocheted chair covers.
I love all the pictures! Wilf is such a dude, what cute things to say. Bless him. We could start our own playgroup too with all Baby's toys x
Some lovely choices! x

aww, the bit with what wilf said to you ..so cute! :) i have a 650d myself, and i love it. at this point i don't see the need to upgrade to a new camera any time soon, but i'd love a good 28mm lens! it's all about the lens!
I know I already commented from the MAD linky but love these ideas and decor absolutely stunning. Popping over again from #loveyourhome

Love the plate. Lovely colours and now I want one!
Those pictures really are stunning, the colours really pop. I've never been to Bocca Bar either so that is on my list now.
I can never resist a trip to Athropologie, thankfully I have no money to splurge when I'm there though!

Gorgeous gorgeous photos as always. Love Wilf's new ride too and his home for his dinosaur! I have a 550D but it's not going to be replaced just yet - especially after the macro lens I bought. The 700D sounds like it's awesome )
I love the circus and farm prints for children, but the sunbird floral bedding is especially gorgeous! Such unusual & exciting prints :)
They all look amazing!
The ribbon striped horse bedding is my favourite, but it took me a while to decide! xx
