First of all was Dave's dad and Margaret. Jacob had a great time, walking up their garden path with his Grandad, finding the family cat and discovering how wonderful Quavers taste like.
We also saw my Nan (Jacob's Great Nan), family friend Jean, Lewis & Ju, Dave's Mum and Bob and then a weekend was planned at my brother's house near Grantham.
We had a great weekend. The weather was fab on Saturday so we went out for a late breakfast, had a walk to a friend's small holding and introduced Jacob to some pigs, chucks, sheep and a horse but he was much more interested in the tractors he could climb into and 'drive'!
It wasn't so much leaving though, a full scale tantram happened. Anthony and I did well taking it in turns to hold Jacob whilst he was crying, screaming, squirming and generally being a toddler in the middle of a paddy. He didn't come out of it until we arrived back at Ant's and Lyn performed some sort of magic!
Jacob also learned about swinging between two people holding his hands (thanks Auntie Lyn and Uncle Ant), being on someone's shoulders (thanks again Uncle Ant) and started his love affair with Thomas the Tank Engine (oh and thanks again Uncle Ant). Which we've watched many times over the last four weeks.
