This weekend has been pretty epic, not only has it been my birthday weekend but I've been incredibly lucky to share it with all my favourites, you know who you are. I must confess I didn't feel as excited as I usually would this birthday, call it getting older or carrying round a baby the size of a coconut in my stomach but strangely enough I think it was my best birthday yet. It was perfectly chilled, full of amazing fodder and I got two birthday homemade birthday cakes, yes two.

To round off celebrations Craig and I made a trip to Bakewell for a country perusal, with our pooch Kez tagging along - he just can't stand to be apart from us! We started at The Pointing Dog & Duck, took a pew in their garden and shared a rather divine pizza (sadly we munched it far too quickly to take pictures). While it was pretty breezy the sun was shining and we were surrounded by honking ducks and a lake, just dreamy. After our pizza lunch we headed off to the green with a cookie monster to share while we watched ducks swim by and groups play boules and croquet. Idyllic non?

It's crazy to think I've only got 6 weeks to go until my due date, where have those almost 8 months disappeared to? I'm definitely starting to get sleepier now but with less than 2 weeks left at work I really can't complain. Next time we head back to Bakewell we'll probably have baby Wild with us, I cannot wait.

What have you been up to over my birthday weekend? Have you ever been to Bakewell?
