Here I stand!
On Sunday night, in the bath, Munchkin pulled himself up and stood on his own for the very first time!

Mary, Mary, quite contrary, how does your garden grow?
It is, at long last starting to look like the winter has left us. And about time too! Our three Clematis are in bloom as a result! The Sweet Williams and Lilies are also on their way, promising lots of cheerful colour this summer!
We are all very glad to see the end of what can only be described as a grey, dreary and wet few months. April showers started in February and didn't really go till late last week.
But this week, it has been a lovely. We have had some really nice days but have been hard at work so haven't really been able to enjoy the sunshine as a family. We are making up for it this weekend though. Today, we walked into Nailsworth for a few bits and bobs for a BBQ, which will take place tonight.
T has been workin hard in the garden, cutting the grass and tidying up the flower beds. He is trying to get used to the heat a we are off to Ah Ma and Ah Kong's in 2 weeks time. The excitement is unbearable.

Never trust your mum...
to get you dressed!
Mummy convinced me that this is a good look. She said that it would stop me from burning in the bright sunshine....but at what cost, I ask?
I look like what my Aunty Genna would call an Alan. Bet mummy thinks I look cute. How am I suppose to show my face in public again? Mummy says that thing is called a sun hat. Well, why can't the sun wear the aforementioned hat then?

Hurrah!
Munchkin is now 10 months old. He loves his food and he loves his Daddy. And everytime you say "Hurrah!"...you get this reaction!

Munchkin, party animal!
Tis I, Le Munch. This weekend I have mainly been going to parties.
It is the weekend when the Banks go on holiday. Wonder where they are going? I wonder if it includes building societies as well, cos they are sort of like banks. I wonder if they build sandcastles where they are going (not just societies)
On Saturday we went to Bristol for a birthday party. I fell asleep on my way there and when I woke up I was in a stange house. Lots of people were staring at me. I didn't like this so I DEMANDED that mummy lift me out of my car seat and give me a cuddle RIGHT THIS INSTANT! She did and after a little while, I decided that I had sulked for long enough and would join the party. There was a very pretty lady there. She gave me nice kisses and cuddles and she gave me carrots. Mummy said her name is Helen. I am going to marry Helen when I am bigger. She is purdy. I like her. I got lots of fuss and cuddles from Aunty A, Mad Uncle C and little e too. It was Niiiiiiccccee. I didn't like to leave but one must not overstay one's welcome. Boy was I ready for bed when I got home!
Today we went to Aunty Mo and Uncle Nick's for nibbles and drinks. I LOVE Aunty Mo. She is wonderful. AND she bought me the bestest thing in the world from Nude See? Land. A nice pair of Socks with sheep on it! What a treat! She must have searched far and wide for them as I think as that items of clothing must be a thing of rarity there. I gave her lots of cuddles and smiles as a special treat. We all sang happy birthday and I clapped my hands lots in the hope of some of that nice chocolate cake. Instead, I got a carrot. Hmm...expectations. I must make a note to outline my expectations to the parents before my next party. Cake, not carrot.
As we made or way home (mummy and daddy on foot and me in Aunty H's special contraption), we met some horsies. They were nice. I quite liked them but mummy rained on my parade and said that I was not to get funny ideas as horsies are like a black hole. What is that woman on? The horsie was evidently brown and quite solid. She must have had too much chat with Mr Al Kohol though I don't remember seeing him there. It is all a blur. Bath, Milk and Bed for me!

Thundercats are on the move
Thundercats are loose!
Our little Thundercat is on the move. Munchkin has been clocking up the miles this week. He is desperate to be on the move. Mary Poppins reports that he has been doing laps of the floor this week on his tummy. She is as we are, really proud of him. He is very proud of himself as well as he takes a pause, to clap in glee at his new found mobility.
Today he went a step further. He has been taking mini Munchkin steps whilst holding on to the furniture. I think this is called cruisin'. Perhaps this is a good time for us to get down on the floor to Munchkin level and peruse the hazards that lie in wait. Perhaps a pre-job brief i required and a risk assessment. And maybe a behavioural safety observation.....I have been in the nuclear industry for far too long!
