boogie

Tuesday, April 29th, 2008

So, Ollie has started saying “boogie” which I remember Thomas doing too. I tried to get it on camera, but he found it too funny, so it sort of disintegrated into giggles. Still it should be a good pick-me-up for those in the family that are ill…

“hardwear”

Friday, April 25th, 2008

Yes, that is a pun, not just me not being able to spell.

I just wanted to sing the praises of my wireless card. It is a Linksys Wireless-B Notebook Adaptor, model: WPC11 ver.4:

You wouldn’t know it, but the whole laptop has been dropped on it several times, it has been chewed on, dribbled in, [...]

The above is David’s, and therefore also Thomas’ favourite quote from Finding Nemo.

I just wanted to moan about being ill again. Is it possible to have some sort of immuno-deficiency where you get ill all the time? I’ve recently been tested for HIV, and thyroid activity, which I would’ve thought were the obvious [...]

Happy 1st Birthday!

Monday, April 21st, 2008

So today Ollie is 1. I’m so grateful for this milestone, as round about this age is where the real fun starts.

Ollie is nearly walking, and I think if we had put the effort in of encouraging him to do so, he would be walking. However I have seen him stagger a couple [...]

Ollie milestones…

Thursday, April 17th, 2008

So I should have made a note of this a few weeks ago, so, around 3 weeks before his 1st birthday, Ollie finally starts to get some teeth! His bottom two front teeth are coming through, very slowly. I’ll try and get a photo of them to show you. This hasn’t stopped [...]

Some random photos

First, Thomas gets stuck in at his favourite eatery…

Here he is, chomping on something else… nice. They should make shoes and socks that toddlers cannot remove.

My mum likes to keep mealtimes interesting…

Ollie tries out his bounce at toddler group:

Ollie tries out some wax control…

Milky milky…

And finally, I like [...]

Snow snow snow

Sunday, April 6th, 2008

We wanted to go and potter around on the Hog’s Back (the A31 between Guildford and Farnham). We did manage to [...]
