Tractor Ride

Lucy, Mummy and Daddy are in a trailer being pulled by a tractor around Brocketts Farm.

What a fine ride.

Daddy feeds Lucy to a Goat

End of the Pig Race

Mummy and Lucy are waiting for the pigs at the end of the pig race.

The athletes get to the end

Lucy looks on approvingly

The athletes deserve their prize

Horses

Mummy and Lucy are looking at a normal size horse.

But look at this - - little Lucy sized horses

She has a nice chat with the little horse.

Hang on, what is that noise?

That dog seems to be rather casual

Lolly!

Lucy is having a lovely lolly.

Mummy is having a lovely lolly as well.

Friend in the Tent

Lucy loves her Tent. But she particularly likes sharing it with friends. Who is about?

Come on then Boo. I hope you have brought your sleeping bag.

More Painting

Mummy and Lucy have got the paints out.

I think green is looking favorite

"It's bit hard"

This is starting to look like a frog

This clearly needs a bit of Orange.

Ice Lolly

Lucy is slurping down a lovely ice lolly.

Much improved when she is released from her push chair prison and can sit on Dad's knee.

On The Wire

Out of the blue, Lucy was suddenly able to walk the tight rope bridge in the playground.

Perhaps a job in the circus is in the offing?

"Yeah, Lucy done it."

Scooter in the Park

This is Lucy's cool scooter.

Lucy looks pretty determined

That's it.

Barry Sheene would be proud.

Lucy in a Basket

Yeah!

Sausage

I'm eating a sausage.

Painting

Lucy is doing some painting.

It is a bit windy so she is using some of Mummy's weights to keep the paper on the table.

"It needs a bit more purple".

Bad Hair Day

If this hair style had been created using loads of gel and styling products it could be considered quite cool.

It wasn't.

A Bit Scary

Lucy and Aunty Pink are watching a film together (Finding Nemo). As you see at this point it is getting a bit scary but Lucy is man enough to stick with it.

However, Lucy is now sufficiently scared that in true Doctor Who style, she is hiding behind the sofa. What hideous vision has caused her such trauma?

Ah!

Little Cow

Lucy is riding a bizarre looking cow at Brocketts Farm.

She loves it.

Lucy and Great Grandad

Lucy enjoys spending time with Great Grandad Don and Nana Moo.

"I'm off "says Lucy as she hunts down Jim to play more football.

Playing Ball with Jim

Lucy is playing catch with Jim.

"Yey, Lucy catched it"

Time for Lucy's best throwing.

Gardening with Nana Moo

Lucy is helping Nana Moo do some gardening at her home.

The gardening needs watering so Nana shows Lucy where the rain filled water butts are that they use to fill the watering cans.

"Worry not Nana Moo", says Lucy, "I've got it" she says attempting to lift a watering can about twice her own weight.

Plants are getting a bit tedious to Lucy. I wonder if there is anything more interesting we can grow?

A Lucy Tree! Where is that watering can?

Nana Moo reads for Lucy

Nana Moo is generously reading Lucy a story. A rather ungrateful Lucy appears to be checking her spelling and grammar using a dictionary which she has mysteriously acquired.

Are you sure you mean take rather than bring Nana?

Tea and a Book

Back home from the Fair, Lucy has fish fingers and peas for her tea.

Whilst we were at the Fair, Daddy spotted a stall which was selling children's books. Better still, the stall was manned by the authors of the books. Previously the only books that Lucy has had signed by the famous author are the works of Jennifer S Porter aka Grandma. But now she has The Catnapping Cat signed by author Judy Allen and When Lulu Went to the Zoo signed by author and illustrator Andy Ellis. Lucy managed to charm the authors by thanking them personally. Both books have become firm bedtime favorites, Aunty Pink reads Lulu to Lucy for the first time. You can see for yourself how enthralled she is.

Busy Day

After an exciting day at Barnes Fair with Aunty Pink and Mummy and Daddy, Lucy takes a break in her push chair.

Horse's Head

In a desperate attempt to stave off demands for a Pony later in life, Mummy and Daddy get Lucy a "Talking Stick Horse"

"It appears a bit skinny" observes Lucy.

It certainly looks more sensible when Aunty Pink demonstrates how to ride it. Ish.

Carousel

Lucy goes to have a look at the Carousel. She has a go on it with Mummy a little later.

Swing Ride

At Barnes Fair, Lucy and Jelly Bear decide to go on a swing ride.

It is a bit dull waiting for the ride to fill up.

But then we're off!

Weeeeee. This is 'citing.

Lucy and Jelly are having a thrilling ride. Although the little girl on her right does not seem quite so impressed.

Pub

Lucy visits the beer garden of a nice pub in Whitton. She tries to force feed Mickey the pig a gingerbread man.

Mickey needs to cleanse his palette.

Lucy and Mickey put on a show for everyone.

Claremont Landscaped Gardens

A nice day out with Pink and Stew to Claremont Gardens. Lucy likes the adventure playground.

It has some fun rides to play on.

And a little house. Lucy goads Aunty Pink for being left outside.

Daddy and Uncle Stewby take a stroll round the grounds. Lucy takes the easy route!

Even so she still needs a sit down.

Water Lilies in Kew

Mummy and Lucy are in Kew Gardens. They are in the Water Lily House.

Lucy is fascinated by the water lilies

But clearly the Lily Pads are the best bit. Where is Jeremy Fisher when you need him?

Piggy Back

Mummy gives Lucy a piggy back ride

I could get used to this.

Mummy Gets Her Chips

Lucy thinks that it is very funny to feed chips to Mummy.

Just to be sure she pushes it halfway down Mummies throat.

Ice Lolly

Mummy and Lucy enjoy an Ice Cream and Ice Lolly looking at Barnes Pond.

And very lovely it is

As indeed are the two ladies.
