A day with the family

My brother Anthony turned 40 on the day of our return to Australia, so we had a family celebration the weekend before.  As you can see, the weather was grey but it didn't stop us having some fun at the local park.  Jacob loved it.  He loved all the time on the roundabout, the seasaw, the swings and the roundabout again and again and again.  We managed to get a few family photos too.  A great day for me but a extremely sad day too.

Our trip to Spain

As you will see, we spent most of it on the beach ...

More UK photos

I know I'm a little slow in getting these phots on the blog but we've been sooo busy since our return. Here's a selection of photos from a trip to the monkey forest with Lewis and Ju, time with my parents and time with Dave's dad and family.  Lots of fun and some great memories.

Talking to Daddy

Most mornings we would have a chat with Dave and Jacob loved getting the phone off me and chatting to Daddy. Most of the time it was a one way conversation but sometimes Jacob would join in with telling Daddy what we've doing or answering Daddy's questions "what noise does a pirate make?", "what noise does a duck make" and "put your arms up Jacob" and then I'd have to tickle him!

Old school friends

(Beth and Jacob)

I was lucky enough to get some time to meet with a couple of school friends Clare and Alison. Both friends brought their girls with them and Jacob had great fun with Beth (just a couple of weeks difference in age) and found that playing on the Air Hockey was the best.

I'm on a big trike now

My parents kindly borrowed a trike for Jacob to use whilst we were there, unfortunately though, it was a little big for him. It didn't stop Jacob climbing on and having a play though.
