Where were we?

Various factors have prevented us from being here for a while (lack of time, lethargy etc), but now we're back. Since we last posted we've had a Christmas in the UK, a 5th birthday party, one of us has learnt to crawl, the other 3 have learnt to use a Mac (iPad and iMac!), had lots of snow etc etc. We'll post some pics to illustrate these milestones in due course.

Matthew Medley

Matthew continues to try out new things. He has started to enjoy a bath after brunch every day. He mainly likes to make big splashes with his legs.

Scary Christmas

Sophie made the fairy to go on the top of the Christmas tree this year

This fella popped out of door 10 on the advent calendar

Oh how angelic

Spoilt Beast

What's this? Caviar on fresh salmon? The Beast definitely got lucky in the latest fridge clear-out.

Music and parcels

Sophie takes control in a game of musical statues. It's a good job the camera wasn't pointing in the other direction. Her favourite music is currently Vampire Weekend.

Every day Sophie checks the mailbox at the end of the drive and once in a while there's a parcel with her name on it. Way to go Nana!

Chillin'

Matthew is learning new skills. He can roll over and his dexterity is constantly improving. He's now taking more of an interest in toys ... in a chewing kind of way. At the moment he likes those squashy books best. Unlike his sister (when she was his age) he does not have a regular daytime sleeping habit and often refuses to sleep at all (... poor mum). Here he is chilling out on the sofa.

Bonfire Night

Food

...is something that Matthew enjoys.
