Burton spent the weekend with my Mum and Step Dad to help me out while Daddy was away rallying in Wales. It was really lovely for him as he has a wonderful time with them, and I was able to catch up on my domestic duties and spend some time with Jenson.
While he was away my Step Dad emailed me several times with photos of what my son was up to with some amusing comments and I thought I would share them on my blog, because they not only made me smile but they enabled me see what Burton was up to while he was away.
Just so you know, for the purpose of this post:
*Burton had not had any naps last week for one reason or another and was knackered when grandad picked him up Friday after tea.
*I had packed some chocolate buttons in his case for grandad, as he had a bad back
*The wording after each photo is what I was sent with each photo
