Spa Time


During our first week at the hotel I had to visit the Spa to have my nails done! Tim decided to tag along and watch.


Whilst there we took a look at all the services they had on offer. Tim was very keen to try a massage. So we booked for a few days later!!

From the long list we settled on a soft swedish massage!

He was very excited!


The room had dimmed lights,soft music and smelt lovely.

 
The massage incuded back, shoulders, arms and a head massage to finish off .... heaven.



Afterwards, Tim admitted a few times he nearly giggled as it tickled.






Tim and I had a very relaxing hour at the Spa and hopefully it will not be our last visit together.

Sleepy Head

When Tae needs to sleep nothing can stop him. He usually doesn't cry or fuss, he just quietly drops off. It can be in a car, on a plane, a shopping trolley or at the table!

During our holiday he was so active. He played constantly by the pool or on the beach. We would stop for lunch around 1-2pm. However on four occasions my little munchin could not make it. He would be full steam until he sat down.

Then this.......


The first time it happened, Tim and I were chatting and looked over to see he had quietly nodded off.

On this occassion he really tried to keep himself awake.




Yes, he is actually still trying to chew his food whilst half asleep.


 
My tired little man



Once we had all finished lunch, it was off to the room with a sound asleep boy.

Quad Biking around Boa Vista

Tig and Tim took the time to explore the island as part of a group on quad bikes. Tig did all the driving and Tim had an absolute blast holding on from behind!






Although the island is very barron it is still beautiful!!
















After some time riding around in the desert this is what Tim looked like - It took a serioulsy long shower to get all the red sand cleaned away!

Pool Time!

Im not a big fan of the beach, but I love pools. So, once the boys were tired of hanging out at the beach I happily took them back to the pool area!! The pools were great, four altogether and salt water.
 We tended to place ourselves at the one which had a shallow area so that Tae could potter in and out of the water.


Both boys had a blast around the pool. Most days at 11am Tim joined in with the water polo game. He was very pleased to often be a top scorer on his team! Both boys did not stop until sun down everyday. (someone was even known to fall asleep at the lunch table a few times:)




There was lots of playing games together, alone and with Tig and I!!! Its amazing the happiness a few plastic toys can bring.




Tae also loved the floaty suit we bought for him and used it most days to stay safe by the water:)






 Jumping in the water



Relaxing at my favourite spot!!



 Loving his boat.

Hours of fun


Getting really good at the bat and ball in the water

Happy in his ring

Catch time!


Chillin' out
