Josephine is into clapping.

Alf went down the big slide at the kite festival and ran away from the bears that live in the woods nearby (supposedly)

Alf's graduation from nursery

Alfie finished at the nursery he has been at since he was 10 months old. There was a saying good bye and he has now moved on to big school. Unfortunately his best friends Alfie Kimsey, Luke and Ella are not going to the same school.

Alf's friends all having something to eat




sorry, been a while with Johanna going back to work, Alfie starting a new pre-school and Jospehine going to nursery all has been a bit hectic, anyway here are a few pictures from the last month or so.

Katie's wedding

Hailey siblings.
Alfie did not mess about with his meringue nest.




Oh no, I ate all the pies again.




Katie got married last weekend. Camera worked on and off so have some pictures mostly of beforehand and a little afterwards.

Henry and Alfie went to try on their outfiits the day before, Henry was not pleased.

Was a really good day and the sun shone when it was supposed to. Joe and Jen also had a wedding party the next day. Unfortunately camera had stopped working by then. Another great day, all exhausted by the end of it.

Some fairly recent pictures. Josephine sitting next to me trying to help, if I put enough Cheerios on her tray it will keep her quiet for a few minutes. Alfie yet to get up although Johanna did find him holding a mirror in front of his face crying at about 8 last night, so he might be a bit tired. We are not allowed to close his door as he might get "lonely" and his eyes seem to be having trouble closing at the moment.

pictures include Alfie on a special safari wearing his microphones (aka headphones and eating peas from the pod in the garden.

Magnifique Holiday in France

It was a great holiday. The weather was fantastic, only felt a bit chilly in the pool the first afternoon. Then, it seemed to get warmer each day. The beach was 15 minutes walk or 5 minutes drive for us away. The campsite had pools perfect for the kids and football playing at the bar for Daddy. We'd definitely do it again but would love to have the kids in the same room. Josephine is a bit too noisy at the moment for that, I'm afraid. No trouble on the drive on either side which is amazing given that we arrived at 11:30 the first night and had to leave at 5am on the last day. The kids were absolute troopers.
