Halloween Party

This afternoon Alex and Oliver attended a Halloween Party at their new daycare. They start on the 2nd November, but Alex has been going during the afternoons of this week to get used to the new location and kids. He's been doing great settling in so far and had an awesome time at the party. He did a lot of running around but also managed a quick "time out" to do some reading.

Fun at the park

Sunday afternoon was sunny, so once Alex was up from his nap we headed off to the park. A great time was had by all.

Singing in the Bath

Alex's talking and singing has exploded in the last few weeks. We got these videos in the bath last night. He can do better, but it gives you the idea at least.

Bathtime Fun

Oliver can sit and play by himself now. We still have to hover in case he slips, but generally he's ok and loves playing with the toys.

Thanks Aunty Emma!

Alex's birthday present arrived last week. Dad was a bit confused about who it was from but Alex knew exactly what to do with the CD!

Big Brother Helping

Oliver tried yoghurt for the first time and Alex wanted to help. Mum the cynic thought it was because he wanted to eat it himself ... but no ... he really did help.

Look at me stand!!

Even when he's sick he's happy

I stayed home today because Ollie had a fever overnight and this morning it was still there once the paracetamol wore off. We're thinking that it's probably teething although he does have a really runny nose as well. If you saw this video without the background, you'd never know he was sick at all!

Thank You Grumpy and Hillary!

Alex's birthday present was delivered a couple of nights ago. He was already in bed so we left it on the couch and he found it the next morning. He brought it straight to the table and opened it after breakfast. The book is great and the gloves and hat will be really useful ... unfortunately we're going to need them both before too long.

Laughs!

Alex was playing with a roll of wrapping paper this evening. Oliver thought it was hilarious and their laughing had Duncan and I in stitches too. Please excuse the wobbly video ... it's because I was laughing ..... and the lack of trousers on Alex - we're all about easy access for potty training at the moment.
