Stair Gates!

It´s time!! I found an ever more adventurous Aidy at the bottom of the stairs today, trying with all his might to get up the first step. So its back to the days of the constant opening and closing of stair gates! Although it is quite amusing listening to Ben trying to work them after a night out on the mead!!

Cranium Fort

One of the great many presents that Wills received for his birthday was Cranium Fort. Much fun is being had creating many different modes of transport -- The ship is proving to be a real favourite.

Young Aidy is very much enjoying the demolition part of the game!

Happy Birthday to You!

Wills had quite a few pressies to open on the morning of his birthday.. We had the usual 4 year old´s reaction to clothes and then the great reactions to toys such as his new light up scooter!

And every 4 year old boy needs a Lightning McQueen birthday cake!

Littlehampton

As Williams 4th birthday approaches, we decided to take him to the seaside for the day! Unfortunately the park was closed and this was pretty much all that was on offer. It started out well but the noise was all too much and the sensitive sole wanted to get off! We moved onto the beach to from here where much more fun was had by the boys!
We topped the day off with a little park up on the M25 - We did end up with a lovely meal for him at a lovely little pub not far from here, so all was not lost! Now he has his little party to look forward to next week.

The New Car

The new car has arrived -- we´re over the moon with it! The kids have lots of room and there are endless cup holders for Wills to store his abundance of beakers!

We did wonder whether it would be worth looking into some sort of sound proofing between "us and them" but there´s nothing better than a family sing song on our long
journeys!

Aidy's cracked it!

Young Aidan has cracked it - he is now a fully fledged crawler and getting his hands on all of Wills' toys!!

Football School

Wills has started a new term at football school - he was particularly excited this term as his best mate Josh has joined up too. He is also modeling an early birthday present from Nanny and Grandad up the hill..

Aidy´s on the move

Oh yes! A week before he is 7 months, Aidan has decided that Wills´ toys are just too tempting! He´s rocking and rolling.. Wills crawled at exactly the same time, which is quite mad.

Back to work...

Its been a hectic week - I have returned to work.. Here is young Aidan all ready for his first day in nursery. http://www.deerlandsdaynursery.co.uk
He enjoyed his first day with his new pals, although he did cry when I first left him -- I then spent all day feeling very guilty!
Of course, Wills was on hand to look out for his little bro! Wills has been a regular at the nursery since he was 10 months, so was more than happy to show him the ropes.
