August has to be my favourite month of the year, even more so now that Dylan is at school. There is sunshine more often than not, there is so much to do, there are birthdays and cake and there is ice cream. We are all together, we are always outdoors and we have had such an amazing month.

The sun really has shone this month, and I don't think the temperature has dropped below twenty degrees in weeks. We have had so many late nights, afternoons on the beach, play dates with friends and mornings exploring. Everyone is looking a little tanned, their hair has got a little lighter and their legs all seem to have grown a few inches too.
August saw Dylan turning 5 and I celebrated my last 20 something birthday too. I can still believe that the return to school is ages away even though really it is only a few short days and we haven't quite finished our summer fun yet.
This month Mama is loving watching the sun setting over the sea, Cora's first smiles, all the family days and birthday cake.
Daddy is loving Folk Week, having more time off to spend as a family, drinking iced coffees and racing around the soft play centre with Finn.
Dylan is loving having all his friends at his birthday party, picking fruit with his friends, spending his money at the festival and learning the diabolo at Folk Week
Archie is loving stripping off at the beach and running in the sea, his conversations with Cora, staying out past bedtime and sleeping over at Grandma and Grandpa's house
Finn is loving walking!!!, dancing at folk week, cuddles with his baby sister and eating chips at the beach.
Cora is loving smiling at her brothers, growing into the next size clothes, Mummy and bathtime.
September is going to be a big adjustment with the earlier mornings, the school runs and the changing weather, but we have so many wonderful summer memories to keep us going.
