Amelia Poppy and Oliver James Steele

Oliver has discovered chocolate cake [ much as his big sister did in the past ] and the result is equally messy.

Oliver finally moved into his big boy forward facing seat in the car. He made the move a couple of months earlier than Amelia. I’m starting to think he’s a bit of a crumper.

The photo above is one of a series of six taken of him. In every one he smiles and poses for the camera. I think we have a potential model in the family. Amelia on the other hand already hides her face from the camera a la Mummy…

Amelia fancied being a tiger for the day whilst we were at centre parks.

We spent quite literally minutes building a robot head so that Amelia could wander around the house saying “take me to the chocolate”

Oliver and Amelia having fun on the swings with cameo appearances by Emma, my office and the back of my house.

I think it’s compulsory for every child to sit in a washing basket and have a photo taken of them.

Milly Moo and Mummy made an Easter bonnet recently, and then Amelia wanted to make another one for Charlie. I’ve yet to get a pic of Charlie in his. I’m sure it really suits him.

Amelia and Daddy recently did some planting of veggie seeds. Somehow Amelia managed to get covered in soil and water. She then proudly told Mummy “I’m a proper gardener now!”

I’m thinking Oompah Loompah takes a cruise

It wouldn’t be a trip to Ikea without Amelia spending some time on the climbing frame.
