When I was pregnant with E, I gave a withering look to anyone who said that it was impossible to avoid branded clothes, toys and accessories. Why? Because my babies would be playing with wooden, educational, hand made, purposeful toys. They wouldn’t be bribed into getting dressed on difficult mornings with Buzz Lightyear underpants. No, that’s not my family…
Anyway, back to reality. Team Weston is now officially a Disney family. We’re wearing it, eating with it, watching it, playing with it and will shortly be using it to launch toilet training for W with a Lightning McQueen potty. And we’ve now had our family holiday with Disney. And it wasn’t cheap. Three nights in a three star hotel for £1,574. I don’t think Lovely Bloke and I have ever spent that much on a three night break hotels, so it was a big spend for us – and all down to Lovely Bloke, who insisted it was a good idea. I’ll write properly about it in future blogs.
I’m just going to put it out there. The experience our boys have had this week has been the most animated, excited, engaged, enthusiastic and basically the happiest I can see them looking for, well, I don’t know since when. And whether that’s a good thing or not, I don’t know. I just know that we’re all playing with Mr Potato head, in the nude, with Cars on in the background and we’re all happy.
Are you a wooden toys or Buzz Lightyear underpants family?
