Look who livened up Boxing Day proceedings!

A very handsome William David was born on 27th Dec @ 3.24am weighing a lovely 6lb 9oz, many congratulations to Kay and Pete xxx

New arrivals

I finally found Leo a fish tank as promised. We had lots of fun window shopping, especially the £2000 monster koi behind him here.

We plumped for something a little bit smaller (and cheaper). Leo has named them Spotty and Tickly which are very cool names for goldfish that aren't very gold.

Everyone knows....

The best bit about baking is getting to lick the implements after! Mmmmmmmm

Odds Farm outing

Leo had a fab few hours at the farm, naughty daddy even got away with saying Leo was under 2 for free admission! Leo found a friend to help carry his mat up the slide a million times and there was even a puppet show which Leo loved as it starred Postman Pat!

I did it!!!

I completed my 1st ever marathon on 8th Nov in Nice in a very creditable 3hr 58min, not bad for nearly 40! Was I glad to see that finish line though. I can see why I like half marathons now!

Rain man

Leo has to be in charge of the umbrella even if it is a little unwieldy for him......bless his little wet socks

An old one from August

John and Ella hired the best bouncy castle ever for Harry's 1st birthday!

Pictures from the weekend!!

It's definitely autumn in Wokingham and we went to Dinton to see cousin Nick fishing, feed the ducks and have a big play in the playground all before most people were probably out of bed. The clocks went back this weekend so Leo was up at 4.49am bless him!

Smiler

Leo is definitely a morning person, getting up at 6am and instantly bouncing around like a nutter with a snake in his PJ's.

A few recent snaps

Leo loves to feed the ducks but not as much as seeing steam trains, but does he like ice cream more? It could be close. And just look at the air under him on the trampoline! Going to the park these days it's often a surprise (and a bit sad) to see him using new apparatus every time where he's getting bigger and bigger. If you look carefully you'll see the tongue aiding concentration!

The BIG Sheep

We had a great day out at the Big Sheep with Nanny down in Devon. Riding the train and the tractor were my favourites as you can see but you should have seen the slides in the playground, scary!

28th Aug - Gramps's Birthday

Leo was in charge of choosing the cake, hence the beautiful Peppa Pig offering! It was very tasty all the same, yummy.

Nevermind

Leo loves music of any shape or form, here he is listening to some Nirvana! His hair is getting long, but not that long yet.

Two cool cats

Enjoying some time in the shade during the recent hot spell (OK, the one day hot spell).

Windmill Trip

It was a hell of a hill (in flip flops too) but we made it to the top! Leo's first ever windmill, he loved it and the chips after in the pub!

Whizzy new park

We discovered the park at Sindlesham is very snazzy, especially the dizzy buckets for Daddy!

That's not my boy!

Can't believe how old he looks here, next thing we know he'll be........

Bubble-tastic

The street vendors in Reading made a little boy very happy with his new toy!

Big news

Leo decided to catch chicken pox the day before we flew home so him and I had a bonus 5days! Always buy travel insurance, we did by the way. He's in the lurgy pool here.











He was never "ill" just a little spotty but we had lots of fun choosing our favourite ones!



















Still cute as a puppy though!

Almost there

Here he is about to go skiing!

More hol snaps

Leo had an action packed day when in "school", i never even went on a catamaran!

Lemnos cont'd

No one could believe Leo was only two, his speaking is amazing , he won chattiest sea urchin award in kid's club in wk1!
Wk2 he would have won the coolest dude award but the only award he collected was the spottiest kid as he got chicken pox on the last but one day!
