This weekend saw James and I have a day to ourselves.   We got up early and headed into York for a boys day out.   We had lots planned but first of all we jumped off the bus and headed to the Yorkshire Museum.   James was on top form and made sure we went into every room.   When we missed one, he would point it out and off he would go.   He loves the dinosaurs in there but most of all he loves the skeletons.   He is truly fascinated by them. 

After we had spent a good hour in the museum, James decided we wanted to go and play in the ruins of the abbey.   He loves climbing on the ruins, even more though, he loves jumping off the top of them.   If I was lucky I got a bit or warning, if not James just threw himself off, trusting I would catch him.   Never have I moved so quickly as he began climbing higher and higher!

After we had walked through the Museum Gardens we grabbed a bite of lunch.   We popped into Lucia’s, James choice as apparently mummy and granny take him there, and James enjoyed some fish fingers and chips.   All in all a nice meal. 

After lunch I asked James what he would like to do.   He announced he would like to go to the big church so off to the Minster we headed. 

James could not get over how high the ceilings were.   He kept staring up in amazement.   I promised him that when he was bigger we would climb to the top of the tower.   He was really excited by this. 

After the Minster, it was time to grab a little food and head home.   Apart from a rogue ten minutes where he was naughty, I had to drag him round M&S, he was a star all day.  Interested in everything.   We got home about six hours after we headed out and settled down to a hot chocolate and some TV.   Could not have asked for a nicer and more relaxing day with my little man.
