We went to IKEA twice, to get some toy storage for the living room sorted, and a new chest of drawers for our bedroom, and just because it's a great day out (really, it is, J-cub loves all the play areas and I could spend a fortune in there).
He especially loved the cot layouts, I think he would have fallen asleep there if I'd let him...
We spent a day scrubbing the garden furniture and toys, J-cub helping by cleaning his car (and emptying my buckets of soapy water as fast as I could fill them)...
We spent rainy days inside huddling under umbrellas, which also make excellent boats...
We learnt that J-cub's all-in-one waterproof is just that - he stuck both his arms up to the shoulders into a bucket of water and was as dry as a bone underneath...
Saturday morning laundry provides me with 50 minutes of peace as J-cub sits on an upturned nappy box and quietly monitors the washing machine...
I learnt that I can sit atop a toddler swing relatively easily...
We took a poorly boy to soft play to cheer him up, and he conquered his fear of ball pools...
And we replaced the faithful Jumperoo with a rocking dinosaur called Dorothy, who J-cub fell desperately in love with...

Aw, love it! Does J-Cub REALLY watch the washing machine for 50 mins??? He's a funny boy, eh?! Lovely pics. Wish we an Ikea in the near vicinity. Bah.

Well he used to - he's kind of got used to it now and just goes about his important work of checking all the cupboard locks are functional; shifting magnets from the fridge to the dishwasher; 'encouraging' the cats to eat their food; and sweeping the floor, with periodic checks that the washing machine is still doing its business. He does love a good spin cycle though ;)
