New Year Visit To The Sea

We have definitely made it a family tradition to go for a walk along the sea front on New Years day. Both Darren and Ethan love to visit the sea and it’s nice to blow the Christmas cobwebs away. This year we had an added bonus, Ethan was able to take his scooter.

A scooter was something that we never thought Ethan would be able to own but on Boxing day he surprised us. I will blog about that surprise later.

So on New Years day we took the scooter with us and there was no stopping Ethan.

We have to keep a very close eye on Ethan when he is on his scooter as he hasn’t got the best balance. We have to stop him from falling back all the time, we did buy him a helmet but he isn’t too happy about wearing it at the moment!

Of course the boys had to visit the sea but scooting on the sand didn’t really work that well!

To finish our walk Ethan decided he wanted to walk along the wall. I’m not sure if this was the best thing to let him do as I’m sure he will expect this every time we visit!

It was great to get out of the house for a little while.

  1. He looks like a little pro on his scooter and he’s always so adorable with his big smile 🙂 Happy new year!!!

      Thank you. It felt a lot colder this year than I remember last year but we do look forward to our New Year walk x

  2. He looks so thrilled with himself, and rightly so. I’d pop along for a walk on the sea front if we lived remotely near the sea-such a refreshing thing to do. I think you may have to do the wall balancing every time from now on too 🙂

      I do love that we can pop down to the sea whenever we feel the need. I think you’re right about the wall walking ;0)

  3. It’s great that Ethan’s enjoying his new scooter, he looks like he’s loving it, even if he is scooting around a bit too fast for your liking. It’s great all the smiles on his face as he scoots around the beach, and walks along the beach wall. Thanks for linking up with Country Kids.

  4. Sounds like you had a wonderful time. My son likes the ocean too but he hasn’t been in a while. He especially likes when we swim in it and one of us, my mom or I, holds him and jumps the waves, lol. He does not yet know how to swim. He also likes to find shells in the sand.

      It sounds like you have lots of fun in the sea. I’m not brave enough to swim in the sea but we do take him there to paddle in the summer :0)
