Wheelbarrow fun

Amelia getting the hang of doing the wheelbarrow thing, roll on sports day when this early training will pay dividends, assuming we haven’t all moved to some namby pamby nanny state where children aren’t allowed to compete and everybody gets an award for “trying their best”…oh hang on…

A breakthrough in feeding

Amelia never did this! Even when she was old enough to understand us saying hold it yourself; she never would.

Oliver on the other hand is an instant success at self feeding which is great. It means Mummy and Daddy can get on with making breakfast whilst Oliver feeds himself his milk. Marvellous.

Gradndad Dave and Nana Sue were looking after Ethan for the day and they came to visit Amelia and Oliver.

Amelia had been going on for weeks about how she wanted to hold baby Ethan. She finally got her chance.

Pocket money?

I’m not entirely sure what Amelia is up to here but I suspect it’s a sight I’ll get used to as she reaches her teenage years…”Dad, can I have some money for err sweets or something”

Amelia and Oliver playing in their “popup” tent that actually needs poles…and takes about 45 minutes to get down and pack away.

Masterchef 2010

Amelia was recently helping Daddy to make some Burritos, or Enchiladas, I never really know the difference. She was very good at adding sauces, tomatoes and rice.

My little boy has started crawling

admin — Wed, 16 Jun 2010 18:22:33 +0000

The easy life is over now that Oliver is crawling around and generally grabbing everything he shouldn’t have. Wires, drinks cabinet, phones and all sorts is now his personal property. Oh dear.

Amelia and the carousel

admin — Fri, 11 Jun 2010 21:00:15 +0000

After a very frustrating hour or so at Gullivers World when Amelia said “No” to everything she eventually plucked up the courage to have a go on some of the rides. The first ride she took to was the carousel above. She subsequently went on the Carousel horses, the Carousel horse that moved, the Carousel horse upsatirs and another Carousel horse a bit later. After this there was no stopping her. Log Flume, Haunted House, Aeroplanes, Tea Cups, Cars, Trains and Planes. The list was endless.

She had a good day. As did Mummy, Daddy and Oly Bolly.
