We took the triplets (and Oscar) to Center Parcs Longford for what was meant to be our first proper little family holiday, and I vlogged the whole thing—packing chaos, check-in, activities, and all the real-life bits in between. We squeezed in pottery painting (note to self: don’t book anything on the first day around check-in), Oscar’s off-road mini jeep experience (absolute heaven for him), a treat shop stop, and swimming. We also had the grandparents with us for extra hands, and honestly I was so looking forward to that support and—yes—the spa. But then it all went a bit wrong. Ireland moved into Level 3 restrictions overnight, and the park cancelled stays from the next day, so we had to leave after only two nights. I shared how disappointing that was, especially after the week of list-making, washing, and packing it takes to get out the door with four little ones. We still tried to make the most of our last hours—especially a slow forest walk with Oscar where we found moss, pine cones, “animal signs” (and a quick lesson on not touching poo), and just enjoyed nature’s playground before heading home.
