A walk in the woods

Like most 2 year olds (or nearly two year olds) my little boy is a (small) bundle of energy so yesterday we took him for his first walk in the country. The part of Cheshire where we live has some lovely walks and as it was a fine autumnal day we decided to head out and see how he would cope. Two hours and 3 miles later a very tired Alex was fast asleep in the car as we headed home, having managed most of the walk on his own and having played with as many sticks and stones as he could lay his hands on its fair to say he was tired! It’s great to see him so active (he started swimming lessons a little while ago) as it means we can go for walks as a family with the added bonus that he burns off some of his excess energy!
