When you don't have a proper microphone there's always something that can improvise...like this curtain pull

Birthday Season

As you know there are two main birthday seasons in our family: one now and one in July. This week we were celebrating Nanny and Daddy. Daddy got his usual - cheesecake which we helped to make and decorate

Unpacking

Lots of our stuff came on Tuesday. There wasn't much room to move for a while!!

Ah, that's better. Open spaces!!

Entertainment

I LOVE Tom and Jerry and have found some useful techniques to experiment with...

Youtube!!

Help

I just love to 'hep, hep, hep' and sometimes I'm allowed so I was able to help Daddy take apart the table

A new view

Well, we're in Scotland but our camera is still in N. Ireland!! So no photos until later. We haven't changed too much and haven't got a Scottish accent yet but we'll let you see soon...

Girls day out

Rebekah, Hannah and I received some VIP treatment this week.

I was very excited to get my nails done and sat as good as gold. My colour choice reflects something of my personality...

Proper ladies...just look at those beautiful nails!!

Re-united with the boy and glad to see that Uncle Wesley's fish are no longer trapped underneath and ice rink!!

Eva and Samuel

Eva has my Annabel...but I have her Samuel

Oscar has a turn and shows his tender side as he kisses and strokes Samuel's head

A new face...and a new phase

Very excited this week that there was a lady painting faces at Cheeky Chimps. Missed a LOT of play time by waiting my turn. There was no way I would leave that line and miss risking the possibility of getting my face done. Once I got in the hot seat I hardly moved a millimeter to give the lady the best chance...

Madame Butterfly and her superhero

Oscar and Emily in that familiar car... no longer is he 'bogo-boy' The soother/pacifier/dummy is a thing of history and it has been a surprisingly smooth transition.

Frozen beach

Look at this! There is snow on the beach and the sand is frozen!!!

I'm sooooo cold!

but it's lots of fun

and there are rewards to be enjoyed!

Happy Birthday

It's birthday season again. We were celebrating Nanny's birthday early as she is off to India now where she will have her actual birthday.

Nanny needs a lot of help to blow out her candles!

Cousin time

Our time with our cousins was great fun and it was prolonged a couple of days because of the bad weather

Tumble time

Never an argument....

Now please don't worry Nonnie, you are in the best salon in town!

More fun in the snow

Inspired by Happy Feet

So yummy I could eat it all...

yuk, you're welcome to it!!

Cheeky Chimps

No-one was pushed in the making of this photo... after we got out of reach...

Oscar has a caring side.

Meeting Mr Tom

New Year's Day was very exciting. Big presents from Aunty Caroline and Uncle Simon...

but of course what we were all looking forward to was seeing our cousins.

I think Tom likes me

We've got work to do buddy. I've all kinds of mischief to teach you...

Daddy directs us all in a whistle symphony between courses

We all know TV is much more entertaining...

Or even some Boowa and Kwala!

Activities

We've been making use of our new activity table this week.

Say hello to my hand Tiger. A present from my Tias in Mexico and brought alive by me.
I wondered why there was no arm in the kit and took some convincing that that part had to be supplied by me!

At the farm

We went to Rebekah and Hannah's Uncle Ron's farm this week.

A mini cow

Too slippy to walk so clever Uncle Ron came up with a plan. He calls it a bora (we think it's a barrow...)

Now for the speedier option

Can you see me?

Oscar gets a turn...and was completely fascinated by all the buttons to press.

Photo Shoot

Aargh!!! Watch out everyone, Mummy's got a camera...

Hahahaha...she wants a family picture. Could take a while!

Best smiles everyone. Oh Oscar...
