To the beach…

A day out for everyone (except Steph) to the seaside resort of Southport, commonly known as the Riviera of Merseyside! We fancied a change from West Kirby and North Wales before this rubbish summer finishes, and Southport is only about 1hour 15mins away. The sun was out, and the Fish and Chips were decent.

Record breaker

No wonder Oscar (and Yvonne) are looking so tired. He’s been hard at work feeding, and feeding again, and then feeding a bit more just for god luck… That’s how he’s managed to put on 1lb in just 9 days!! You little greedy guts!

Awake

It has been a busy, but very enjoyable couple of weeks for all of us with little Ozzie. He is awake and alert a lot more now, well wouldn’t you be if you had a bird right behind your head? We have had a lot of visitors coming to see us, including Dylan and Jarvis, … Read more

A bit more stuff…

I have been asked for more photo’s of little Oscar, so here goes. I shall try and wrap some interesting text around them. (Don’t hold yer breathe! Seriously!) This is probably the first picture of Ozzie, pretty soon after he was born. Babies feet tend to be very wrinkly, which always makes for a good … Read more

A little bit more Oscar…

Well, that certainly wasn’t the weekend we were expecting! Two big surprises, first our new baby arrives on it’s due date – the previous three were at least a week overdue. Secondly, we get a baby boy! The mathematicians amongst you will quickly deduce that there was a 50% chance we’d have a boy – … Read more

Hello World, I’m Oscar!

I’d like to introduce the newest member of our family – Oscar. Born this afternoon (sat). Mum is very tired after 13 hours of labour, but in good spirits. I am just a very, very proud new Dad. More photo’s and stuff to follow when we’ve all had a chance to recover!!

Summer with Charlotte

Charlotte is really enjoying the sun, she loves playing in the garden. She has just had a water and sand playtable which she loves; she mixes the water with the sand and then eats the slushy mess!!! We have just returned from a weekend in sunny Basingstoke where Charlotte got to play with Granny and … Read more

8760

Yes, it was a mere 8760 hours ago that Charlotte was born, (you knew that was a year – didn’t you?!), so it’s time to jump on the Birthday Bus! I could say all the usual stuff about fast this year has gone etc, but really, it’s all just been great having her with us… … Read more

New garden, old animals

We are getting the first signs of life in our new garden. Which I’m sure will cheer up the herd of old animals we inherited from the previous owner.

Birthday 1

Steph recently had a sleep over for her 15th Birthday. Cake, music and friends – who could ask for more! Everyone seemed to have a good time, even Lottie who is turning into a bit of a party girl, She even found time to try out her new “Catalogue Girl” pose! Good work Lottie!
