This is what happens when you forget to pick your courgettes. Amelia could barely hold it up! It was going to go in the bin but I chopped it up into pieces and the chickens loved it. So in the Steele household there is Daddy and the chickens who eat courgettes so far. Milly Moo just isn’t interested. Sigh.

Big girl swing

Swing baby, yeah!

Swing baby, yeah!

Amelia has finally progressed from swinging in the baby swing to having fun in the big girl swing. Obviously as responsible parents who very much dislike unplanned trips to the hospital we don’t let Amelia swing too high, but she enjoys herself just bobbing backwards and forwards.

Windmill Farm

We all took a day off and went to visit windmill farm in Burscough. Excellent fun. Animals, train rides, climbing frames and a picnic.

Thoroughly recommend a visit

Carnival

Saturday, July 4th, 2009

We spent the afternoon at the Westhead Carnival. Hot dogs, cakes, cups of tea and a gymnastic display. All very English countrysidey.

Amelia was determined to go on the ladybird ride. All was well until it began moving.
