Katie and her friends

We have shared a couple of pictures of Sophie and her friends but Katie attended a wee get together for all the mums and babies who got together at the original mum's and toddlers group almost 2 years ago. Not everyone made it but if u look back u may recognise some faces from old old posts.

The holidays!

It's the start of the holidays so hopefully this will result in a bumper amount of photos. 

here is Sophie enjoying a wet day down the park with Dad - just before she ended up falling into the muddiest of puddles - she laughed and so did I although I had to carry her home and I got soaked as well.





 
Here is Sophie having some fun - and pretending to be a bit of a diva on the front doorstep. (whilst eating a cracker of course)

 
And then........ there is another adventure in town - Sophie is hopefully going to have a wee brother or sister on or around August 20th (all being well) - we have just had our 20 week scan and everything is going very well. I never fail to be amazed by these scans - they are so detailed and clear - I could watch them all day. 

You may have spied a previous post about our announcement that disappeared but that was only on for two days before we decided to keep it to ourselves a wee bit longer.

At the moment Sophie is such a caring sort she will love the company but at the same time - how will she cope with someone else having some of the spotlight? Only time will tell.....

Happy Easter

A busy old week this week ended with Good Friday and Easter Monday holidays which were much needed.

This weekend we have been swimming, visited Cammy the turtle at Sealife centre again, been down the park and Sophie had a sleepover at Gran and Grandad's which let Katie and I go out for a great meal, head out to the movies and spend a day getting the house a bit more organised.

Here we are altogether at the cafe after Dad got to attend Monkey Music for the first time - a great way to spend a Friday morning.


Cheers Mum.


In this week's local newspaper we are trying to work out if Sophie made her first appearance - we think she did but we cannot decide for sure and we can't work out where the photo was taken - we are happy if it is her but we will be asking at nursery to see if she has now been having her own adventures when we aren't looking! Supporting charities and all that - quite the philanthropist.
 


The rest of the time we tried to chill out as much as we could - even when we were just lounging around the house.


And then on Easter Monday Sophie got to have not one, but two Easter egg hunts!

First of all Auntie Nicole and Uncle Paul provided a really brilliant egg hunt at Gran and Grandad's - then when Sophie got home the pesky Easter bunny had hidden some treats in the front garden. Sophie had a great time hunting down the treats.


                                    



 


She also had a great time eating a wee chocolate egg once we got back into the warmth of the house.
 



We have another quick week this week and then it is the real holidays - which this year they are calling Spring Break because Easter has already been. The world has gone a wee bit mad.
