Second Little Little on the way


If you haven't already heard from us on this then sorry that you are hearing about it this way. Our second baby is on the way and due sometime around the 6th of July (leaving his dad in tears holding 2 tickets for Genesis on the 8th). So far the little one, Code named "Socrates" or "Hamish" depending on your level of gullibility, is doing well and is either a girl and plumping her pillows regularly like her mum or a boy and doing regular squat thrusts like his brother.

 

First Real Christmas..moving to a 3 car family




We've called this Christmas Callum's first real one as he really wasn't that big last year and this was the first chance he'd have even a clue about his presents, tinsel, lights and dressing the cats with reindeer antler's (a family tradition). Callum wasn't disappointed with his new car and his new drum kit (so he can stay off of dad's for 5 minutes) and spends most of the day moveing between the 2.

 

What 2 visits from Santa in one year




Not only did the little guy get to meet "Farmer Christmas" in his first real Christmas but he managed to pack in a further visit at his nursery just to mae sure he got his request. Grandma and daddy came along for the visit and spent a lovely afternoon being plastered with sand, pasta and various bits of bread covered in soft cheese as a result.

 

Another visit to Farmer Christmas




At the beginning of December we once again trekked off to Norfolk to visit Father Christmas or "Farmer" Christmas as we now joke. This year he was not only a jolly chap but took plenty of time to speak to all of the children and clear up any potential Health and Safety issues with stray toys he could slip on with the kids as well. A big surprise for Callum was a guest appearance by Thomas' coaches "Annie and Clarabel".

Callum Shows off his walking

At the end of November we had another lovely visit from Callum's wee Gran Little and Joe's sister May (not only her first flight on a plane but her first visit to us). Callum had only just started walking the week before and being the little guy he is was quick to start showing off by walking nearly the length of Virginia Water Lake.

Callum's first Halloween




A long time since the last blog but we's been busy. First of all in October Callum had his first Halloween at Tootsie's his nursery. Mummy bought him a lovely pumpkin outfit for the day and he had a ball with all of his little friends. Daddy missed it all though as he was over in Washington D.C. speaking at a conference on Serious Games. But he took the opportunity to spend Halloween evening with his American mom and pop Laura and Arnie. Prior to visiting we had a lovely weekend in the midlands where we visited Caroline and Yvette as well as staying at Pearl and Paul's before heading off to Mosely to see Sally become a godmother again to little Harriot Whitehouse, the daughter of her good friend's Jo and Tony. November was also eventful as we took some time off to get the downstair's loo redecoration completed and Sally's study redecorated whilst being visited by wee Gran and Callum's Auntie May (her first time on a plane). Callum is now sporting a good 10 teeth and is close to speaking but he finally cracked walking at long last and from this week he's moved up to the big boys end of nursery.
