Burton Beach 2013

 

Somehow for the past two years now we have spent Tom's birthday down in Dorset at his mums, but why not when it's a stunning location, great company and pretty much ideal for a energetic toddler.

We took a trip to Burton beach which is just stunning, we went there not so long before Wilf was born too, (you can see that post here). There is a little secluded beach on the other side of the hill that is just beautiful. Somehow without quite meaning to we have made this beach very special to our little family.  I would really recommend visiting!

We were so lucky with the weather, we even had a little paddle in the sea, which reminded me that we took Wilf for his first ever dip in the sea on that exact day the year before! Here is a little video of that moment (apologies for the phone quality and the fact it isn't horizontal, does that bug anyone else?)

It was a super quick little visit, but we had time for an ice cream (or yogurt as Wilf insists it is called). Wilf 'shared' mine, and by 'shared' of course I mean by toddler standards which is 'miiiine all miiiine!'. I was trying to think when was the last time I had swum in the sea (as the weather would have been perfect for it) and I realised it was three years ago! I will try and make it a effort to do more sea swimming next year (I wouldn't be surprised if it is at this beach same time, same place!)

Until then, just look at this grumpy little ball of cute!
