29th January

It was Emily's baptism today so we were all dressed up. In true Douglas fashion, there are no photographs with all of us on so here are the girls posing afterwards!
 

28th January

Banana on my foot? No problem, I'll eat it off!

Once you pop you cannot stop. It's certainly true for Oliver who found our (not so) hidden Christmas tube of Pringles!
 

26th January

Oliver charging along to the swimming pool. He knows the way!
 

25th January

Three wise monkeys!

Lucy (the fish in middle of this photo) is no longer 'hiding in the submarine' so we're back to 3 fish!
 

23rd January

"Mummy, I've put my hat on because the sun was is my eyes". It won't be now, Maisie!
 

22nd January

It was Benjamin's birthday party today (birthday tomorrow). Everyone has great fun!
 

21st January

Bath fun this afternoon! I can't use other photographs (swimming children, half submerged children, dancing children...) as they're not suitable for the internet so this is the best one!

Soft play fun after school!
 

19th January

Maisie doesn't often get 'alone' time with Mummy or Daddy and she certainly enjoys it when she does!

18th January

Messy play at toddlers this morning. Maisie and Oliver spent most of the time eating the messy play!
 
 

17th January

Jessica's homework this week involved doing a science experiment (any!). She agreed to make a volcano and loved it!

16th January

Oliver loved his walk to school (from the car park). He's normally stuck on Mummy's back so loved the slight freedom. He managed to borrow one of Jessica's friend's scooters and walk it around the yard while we waited for the bell!
 

15th January

Daddy made it to Church this morning!

14th January

It snowed here yesterday and we had just under an inch. Maisie enjoyed playing in what was left of the snow today. When asked what the snow felt like, she said "it felt like snow"!!!

13th January

Another day, another appointment. Today was Oliver's hearing test. He didn't play ball so we have to have it repeated in a few weeks!
 

12th January

Oliver was prepared after swimming. He ate his raisins but made sure he'd moved the brush alongside him first to clean up afterwards!
 

11th January

Mummy was at The Botanist tonight for a friend's birthday. The dome is amazing!
 

10th January

Maisie and Oliver playing with the stacking cups together at toddlers!
 

9th January

Today, I think I'll wear my inside out pants on my head!

6th January

Minus 2 degrees this morning and wet yet Jessica still wanted to scoot to school. 
 

5th January

Maisie was being independent on the walk home from toddlers today. Refused hand holding (other than crossing the road). She's growing up!
 

4th January

This little tinker had a blood test this morning and even that didn't stop the smiles, well, it did for about 2 minutes!

Happy Birthday Daddy! We've not eaten nearly enough cake this season so let's make and eat some more!

2nd January

The last day of the school Christmas holidays. We've all had a sickness bug, a cold virus and now high temperatures but we've mostly enjoyed the holidays. Jessica is still not well so Daddy took Maisie and Oliver for a walk (well, he carried Oliver!). They enjoyed the fresh air and the chocolate lolly!
 

1st January 2017!

Happy New Year! We didn't have the best of starts to the year (or end of last year) because Jessica has been poorly which cut short our night out, however, the girls had great fun having a spring clean today & enjoying their Christmas smelliest! 
 

31st December

New Year's Eve! Mummy and Jessica went into Newcastle this morning to spend some Christmas money. Here is Sunshine Care Bear!
 

30th December

We popped in to see the Doughty family this morning and Jessica enjoyed her play date with George!
 

29th December

After a busy few days, we had a quiet morning at home. Jessica loved watching We're Going On A Bear Hunt which we'd recorded on Christmas Eve.
