Seaside

At the Seaside from Robert on Vimeo.

In the past couple of weeks Lucas has gone mobile and he's now getting himself all over the house. He's not quite, technically, crawling but shuffling and pulling himself along, as you can see in this video. He's also fascinated by the kitchen cupboards and tries to catch the cats.
Ruby has completed her first full week of successful potty training and wearing, as she calls, 'big girls pants'. To celebrate, we went for a day out to the seaside at
(only because it's geographically the closest seaside to London) Southend-on-Sea.

Fun Fair

A few other pictures from the weekend before last. The fun-fair was in town.

The Goldwaters

We spent a really lovely time with Mike and Wendy a couple of weekends ago, in Muswell Hill, and it was wonderful for them to meet Lucas for the first time and get to know Ruby a little better. They treated us to a terrific brunch and we all went for a walk in Highgate Woods afterwards. I also got some invaluable photography tips from Mike.

Easter - Final Highlights

Here are a few last highlights from the incredible time we had over Easter and the Royal Wedding. Meeting up with Mark and Sophie in Holland park. Making pancakes, scones and ice lollies with Ruby. Sipping champagne while we watched the Royal Wedding (Ruby and Lookie looking really captivated). Lookie having a cuddle with Roger. And Ruby just being utterly adorable and reading, out loud, the book 'Guess How Much I Love You' to My-My, the thing she loves most in the world. The photobooth strip we got at Pizza East.
Over those glorious 11 days in April; Lucas got the hang of clapping, waving and his vocabulary is rapidly expanding. He calls the cats 'ada' and I'm pretty sure we can confirm his first words were 'daddy'. He's moving about a lot now but not quite crawling, he's ever so close though. Ruby has been mastering the potty, wearing 'big girls pants' and collecting gold stars for successful potty use.
