A year in pictures – Day 20

Friday

Another Friday off work and another lovely walk around the coast with my sister, Ralph the dog and The Little Miss.

It was such a beautiful day but the air was chilly. I do think though that it would be possible for this to be the middle of summer because it is so sunny!

A year in pictures – Day 19

Mug

A nice new mug from my best friend. Thought I would take it into work so that it gets plenty of use and hopefully it won’t get nicked!

Fat Eric

I love my bed and so does Fat Eric.

He is so heavy these days though that you certainly know about it when he is lying on your chest!

A year in pictures – Day 17

Little FishyToday I got a phone call from the childminder and it was The Little Mister on the phone telling me that he had managed to swim 5m and get his badge.

He was so proud of himself. He is a proper little fish these days although he seems to prefer swimming under the water rather than on top of it!

Still my babyNo matter how big he gets, sometimes it is nice to have sleepy cuddles.

He will always be my Baby Boy.

A year in pictures – Day 15

Cinema time

This afternoon I took The Little Mister to the cinema for the first time. It was a special showing of The Secret Life of pets and the local animal shelter had animals to stroke and look at before the film started.

I have to admit that I laughed at the film – The Little Mister enjoyed it but I think I enjoyed it more!

A year in pictures – Day 14

The Climber

The Mister and I spent a bit of time in the garden today and we were chatting about what we were planning and turned round and The Little Miss had climbed right to the top of the stepladder. She is amazing at climbing which is rather heart-stopping at times!!!

A year in pictures – Day 13

Pre-school art

Having two children at pre-school means that we now get two lots of creative junk art delivered home on a regular basis.

This is The Little Mister’s latest offering. I like the way it is nicely even, he seems to have placed the pieces of pasta in a well thought out way. Maybe we have the next Tracey Emin on our hands.

We tried to offer this piece to Grandpa as a gift to take home with him. Sadly he declined.

PonytailThe Little Miss’ hair is growing really fast and it is now long enough to put in a ponytail.

Sadly it doesn’t stay in for very long!

A year in pictures – Day 11

Stefanie!

This had to be today’s picture!

About 6 years ago (I think!) my cousin Stefi came to live with my parents in Guernsey as her parents are missionaries out in South America. So, my Mum and Dad gained a teenager who was about to start her post 16 qualifications!!

Stefi is awesome in so many ways. She is funny, dippy and not very organised at times, creative, amazing with the kids, kind, generous and loving and generally the most fantastic littlest cousin I have. She is also one of The Little Miss’ godmother. A role I know she takes enormously seriously.

She has become more like a little sister (quite an annoying one at times) and I am hugely grateful that she has been present so much in our lives over the last few years.

Today she graduated with a First Class degree in drama (I think!) which for someone with dyslexia is a massive achievement. She asked my Dad to go to her graduation and he was as proud of her as he was of me and my sister. Of course she had to trump us both by getting a first whereas Louise and I only got 2.1s!

My Mum would have been extraordinarily proud of Stef. She loved her like she was her own daughter and she invested a lot of time in her, helping her educationally and giving her confidence in the process. Mum would have super-proud and so am I.

We love you Stef. Great job. x
