Memories.

Went for a drive out to Stansted House and gardens this morning, mainly to get some fresh air and escape from our house pre-baby spring clean. The house was closed, but the cafe was open (very nice food too) and to Olivers delight, the light railway was also open. I think we were the first passengers of the day, but as we finished our ride, there was a small queue of eager passengers waiting to get on.

Last time I was here, Emma was days away from giving birth to Oliver. We didn't ride the train last time, simply preferring a wander round the lovely grounds. Days later, Emma was induced and ended up giving birth by emergency c-section. This time, we are just over 2 weeks from Emma's due date and we all rode the train. Could that make a difference. Lets see!

Over on flikr are a few more shots from todays trip out.
