FAMILY TIME | WEST MIDLANDS SAFARI PARK

Hello lovelies, on Wednesday me and my boys went out for the day, if you have been to West Midlands Safari Park you will know if you go you get a free return ticket, so we found that out and headed of to Dudley. We regretted it so much when we got there, forgetting it was still summer holidays and everyone must of had there free return ticket, the que was humongous! We didn't even bother going around where you see the animals because we would of being in a que for hours so abit gutted we just went straight inside the main bit. Thank god we didn't have to pay for this ticket we would of been really miffed, we knew Oscar loved the goats last time so at least we knew he would enjoy something there. 

Oscar is a massive animal lover, if he sees a dog in the street he will wave it at he waves to the birds in the garden and if an animal is next to him he will stroke it instantly, it melts my heart. When we first got into the park we headed to the discovery part, I couldn't really picture the bats but Oscar wasn't keen on the dark room anyhow, then we saw the ants and the fishes, Oscar always say's wowww at fishes, no idea why but there we go. We found nemo anyhow and these lovely glittery fishes I can't remember what there called now, woops. After the discovery part we headed to the meerkats, I love meerkats they are adorable, I love the picture I got of one posing on a stump. After the meerkats we saw the penguins, one was showing of whizzing around the pool doing jumps and all sorts and the rest where huddling together for warmth I presume unless it was nearly dinner time. Then we went and saw the lemurs, Oscar tried to stroke one but the woman shouted at Dan and Oscar for touching so we got out of there pronto and went to Oscar's favorite part of the safari park, the goats! Oscar kept saying ahh and laughing when he fed and petted the goats, it was so sweet to watch I must of took 50 photo's and a little video! Check my facebook for the video it is so sweet, he could have stayed in there for hours he wasn't happy when we ran out of food.

After the goats we took Oscar around the fair rides, he hated them all! He cried on every rise bless him he doesn't mind rides when were on them with him but these were dinky rides I don't think it would of held mine and Dan's weight aha. At least we tried, after a lot of tears and a little tantrum we thought it was time for a picnic, so we got out dinner and sat at a nice bench, Oscar wolfed his pasta and snacks down and it was time to go before we knew it. As you can tell by the last picture he wasn't happy we had to leave but after the safari we were going to Merry Hill shopping centre, before you get to Merry Hill there is a soft play, it wasn't really the best but Oscar got half an hour play before they closed just to break the day up a bit and get a quick coffee in then we did some shopping.

Dan couldn't wait any longer after only going in one shop and demanded we go to Nando's I wasn't going to argue with him was I, so we all had a yummy Nando's and me and Oscar even did some colouring there with the crayons and picture they gave us then it was time to shop till we dropped, the best thing about Merry Hill is there awesome car you can go shopping with and basket! It is so perfect for kids, Oscar didn't moan once whilst we shopped, I need one of these for everywhere I go seriously. We got some bits from Lush, Next, H&M, Tkmaxx, Yankee and got some Millies cookies for the journey home, we didn't have a mad shopping trip it was just nice to have a whole day as a family out in the week, I thoroughly enjoyed it and I am sure we will be back there soon to do our Christmas shop, I want to try and be a bit more organised this year yet I say that every year, we shall see. 

Hope you enjoyed my very long lifestyle post, let me know in the comments below what day you loved this week and what you got up to. 

Mummy Monday - Family Day to West Midlands Safari Park.

Hello lovelies, firstly I'm sorry for the lack of posts last week, very rarely my fella gets any time off and he had a week off so I took full advantage of it. I'm rubbish with saved posts too, I never save them I just want to upload them all. But I'm back again with another Mummy post, so hi again and I hope you're all well and hope you enjoy my family day out post.

As it was Dan's week off we wanted to ram as much as we could in those seven days we had together with him helping his dad out down the road also. On Tuesday I decided for us all to go here as it's only an hour an a half away, I love animals and know Oscar does too, Dan's fond also aha. Me and Dan went when Oscar was in my tummy and I thoroughly enjoyed it so couldn't wait to go back. We got there and Dan decided it would be more benefical for Oscar if he was on our laps, I thought it was unsafe and stupid being the adult in the relationship aha, but you don't drive fast or irresponsibly around the park so I don't see why it would hurt. Plus he did get to see the animals more as he would have struggled in his car seat, Oscar was instantly shouting ooooh and cooool when we got closer to the animals. My stupid phone battery died after the drive around park bit though so you don't get to see the penguins, bats, meerkats, lemurs and goat feeding. I absolutely love the penguins I could watch them for hours, like fish I find them so therapeutic. The lemurs were amazing me and Oscar stroked them and he was laughing his head of at them bless him aha. Meerkats adorable as always and the goat feeding was fun, Oscar also laughed his head of at them also, I think there tongue's tickled his hands. But I do have some pictures of our adventure in the park where you drive around, the Giraffes were in there pen thing so you can't see them and the tigers were sleeping as always. I hope you enjoy the pictures and leave me a comment of your favorite animal at the zoo/safari below. My favorite animal at the zoo is monkeys! I really want one, but they don't have monkeys at West Midlands Safari I love staring at Tiger's though, they are just beautiful creatures, I just want to go and stroke them, but anyway enough babbling, here's our pictures.
