Kings Meadow


General

Elliott was good for most of the day, though towards the end of the day he seemed a little hot and bothered, but after bath time he seemed much better again.

Activities


In the morning after some indoor playing we went to Kings Meadow and did some more Ben 10 biking and lots of playing in the playground there.  

In the afternoon we went for more biking along the path by the Thames near Rivermead and he also played in the playground there as well. When we got back we watched some Ben 10 and he was a little naughty about tea but as described much better after he'd had his bath.

Ben 10 biking at Ludgrove


General

Elliott was good all day today and went to sleep really well despite the heat. 

Activities


We had a lazy morning playing and then went supermarket shopping where we had elevenses. 

After lunch we went to visit Andrea in Wokingham and took his Ben 10 bike. We went bike riding down a private road in Wokingham that leads to the prep school Ludgrove, where you're allowed to cycle and walk but no driving. He did really well with cycling. After we'd done some cycling we then went to Palmer Park and played with a football and a rugby ball which was nice in the late afternoon sun. Then Andrea came back to help with tea, bath and bedtime.

Swimming at the central pool

Birthday lunch

General

Elliott had a few bad moments today in the morning but nothing too bad. Just a bit of not listening or purposely arguing for the opposite. His eating today was much better though.

Activities


We spent the morning playing with Granny and Grandpa before we drove back to Wokingham for lunch with Andrea's family as it was her Mum's birthday. After lunch we went back to Andrea's parents house where Elliott played for ages with Harry, Andrea's nephew, and they seemed to be having a great time. They played shops but they also went outside and played football and hide and seek. He was very tired by bedtime though and went to bed nicely.

Bournemouth beach


General

Elliott had a few bad moments today, mainly centred around not eating. He had a time out before his breakfast because he didn't want to eat it and similarly before his tea. Though he did eat well at lunchtime picnic by the beach. He also procrastinated a lot at bedtime today, going to the toilet twice after bedtime.

Activities


We went to Bournemouth beach with Granny and Grandpa and spent most of the day there. There was a playground by the beach and we took the scooter too so there was plenty of playing, scootering and also some paddling in the shallows. The weather was really good and it was a really nice day out.

Wokingham May Fair

General

Elliott was good for most of the day, though towards the end of the Fair he had a few moments and got very upset when a balloon he was holding blew away. He had had a very busy day though, and I think he was quite shattered by the end of it.

Activities


In the morning we had a lazy morning and then went to visit Andrea for an early lunch. 

In the afternoon we went to the Wokingham May Fair with the Allens, Dave, Fi and Alice and Andrea, her brother Graham, his partner Babs and her nephew Harry. This was really good fun and he went on quite a few rides - Bouncy Castle, Bouncy Castle slide, tea cups, a swinging ride plus the nearby playground

Milly's birthday party

General

Elliott was really good today. He seemed quite tired towards the end of the day but this wasn't surprising as he had a busy day. He let me put vaseline on his lips nicely and the sore bit is clearing up.

Activities

In the morning we went to Milly's birthday party at Pinewood Gymnastic Club. This was really good. There was a small children's Gymnastic room with lots of padded equipment quite similar to soft play environments. There were about 20 children and 2 grown ups from the Club got them to play lots of games, run around, etc. There was also a birthday lunch after the activities which was good fun and Elliott had fun with Olly and Oscar who he'd just met.

After the party we went to the park in Wokingham with Andrea and did some scootering. Then we went back to Reading and had coffee with Graham and Anthea who were down visiting and he was really good and talkative with them after a little shyness initially. We also watched some Tree Fu Tom and he really joined in with the spell casting bit which was fun.
