Christmas Morning!

Christmas morning was a frenzy of wrapping paper and cardboard! Lots of "Wows" from Wills and lots of paper eating by Aidy!

Young Aidy opening his "Thats Not My Car" book from Santa.

After waiting very patiently for Wills to wake up, a lazy 8am start, he came down to a lovely bundle of pressies; including his Ben 10 alien spotting guide!

First Step!

Young Aidy has managed his first step this week! We've had no more re-runs as yet but he is spending as much time as possible standing up and walking around the furniture.

Our Little Joseph!

We attended Wills' Christmas Happening today, apparently it's called this as they never quite know what is going to happen! All the parents filed into the hall eagerly trying to spot their little cherubs. I was starting to panic as I couldn't see young Wills anywhere, until Ben pointed out that he was smack bang in the middle playing the part of Joseph. Oh yes, it doesn't get any better than that! We were so proud, although he showed more interest in waving his crook around than participating in song actions!

How could we?!

We as parents have done something unforgivable; we left Nanny and Grandad Crispies last night without Wills' beloved Ben 10 watch. Tears were averted last night as he fell asleep in the car on the way home -- however, Wills' first request this morning was for his watch. A very quick thinking Daddy advised a very teary Wills that Grandad was going to fit it with a new battery. This left him somewhat less battered but still visibly upset.

All in all he is coping quite well without his right arm accessory but he has asked me "Mummy, how can I rescue people now?"

Those alien powers really are all in the watch!
