Sunday 18th July

Today we visited friends in Suffolk for a catchup, BBQ and swim in the pool. The weather was superb and the BBQ lamb was cooked to perfection.
Besides being constantly baggered in the pool by the three children (E, T & L), I then had to (at the request of the youngest), bounce on the trampoline with them. It was very enjoyable although dangerous (with someone of my weight bouncing with children!).
George was a little unsettled today, although he did enjoy the other children's company. In fact, Claire has started to encourage him to walk by holding his hands and making him 'stand' and hold his own weight on his legs. We were surprised at his progress in just a few hours!!! More exercising for George to come .....

Everyday our little 'bubba' causes enjoyment for us. Today was especially funny as I got home from a busy day at work, in time to put him to bed. So during my final preparation of getting him into bed, Claire and I were having a quick casual chat to catch up on our respective days experiences. George whilst in my arms, decided to lean across to block my view of Claire and gave a huge smile as to say, "I'm here Dad; talk to me!" This cracked us both up and he then giggled and started to lean in to my face with his mouth open - this is how he kisses loved ones.
