That's our girl...

Sherbert Dip Dabs - pure heaven!

Our little man...


...more photos for Grandma to see.

Craig and Lisa


J was asked to be a witness at this brothers wedding.

Jed 'The Ring Bearer'


As expected our little man did a fantastic job as ring bearer. Mummy and Daddy were very proud!

Jed going back in time...


...J's brother Craig got married at the end of August and Jed was the ring bearer. He had to wear a 1940's outfit!

Granny with all the Grand Children


Daniel, Anya, Jessica, Granny (91 nearly!), Jasmine, Jed, Alan and Sophie.

J loves this photo, as it is so Anya. Not content to sit at a table, or even on the floor - she has to climb on the sofa to eat her snack!

Granny and the Great Grandchildren!

Jed looking very pleased with himself...


...building again!

Snack Time!!!

Me and my shadow...


Anya is such a Daddy's girl. Come to think of it Jed is such a Daddy's boy! What happened there then? Guess I am useful to have around sometimes... maybe :0).

Jed going one better!

Edmund Hillary in the making...


...Grandma's new nickname for Anya, as she has no fear and the higher the better!

Jed setting his sights high...

A rare cuddle with Uncle Gary...


...not because he is not a cuddly uncle, because clearly by the size of his belly, you can see that he is cuddly :0)! Only joking Bro... it's because you live so far away. Too far actually!!!

Daddy is so good at explaining EVERYTHING!

Blonde, curly girl... How did that happen?

A day out at Didcot Railway!


Like most boys of 2 1/2, Jed LOVES trains, planes and automobiles! We took him to see the trains at Didcot Railway station and he loved every minute of it. Anya and I talked about hair and make up, whilst Jed and Daddy talked about...hmm not sure really, steam and engines? Yawn.

Cool Dude!

Up to no good!

WOW!

The new "Bubble Wig"...


Anya is so fed up with having no hair, she decides to opt for the new Bubble Wig.

Jed and Anya's cousins...


...Becky (11), Laura (11), James (11), Sophie (17). Uncle Adam - well, say no more!!!

Anyone for a lift?...


...Jed impressing the ladies with his preferred mode of transport!

The Three Musketeers!

Having some fun with Uncle Adam. 1 year on and it has flown by. You are such a joy - our lovely daughter! Happy Birthday :0).

A visit from Grandma!


Grandma is here from sunny Tenerife... yeh!! That means all we hear for two weeks is "Play, Grandma, Play!!!!!!"

DOUBLE TROUBLE!!!

Champers all round!

It was my Dad's birthday too - so a huge toast to my lovely Dad - always in our thoughts, missed more and more each day.

All aboard...

Me and my big bro, with sister in law Sue looking on...


My 40th Birthday Surprise!


J organised a limo to take us into London (big surprise!) and then an even bigger surprise was to find Adam, Sue and Christopher waiting in the limo too. So off we all went into London and we ate at the gorgeous "Roof Gardens - Babylon" restaurant in Kensington - this is somewhere I have wanted to go for years! Wonderful food and lots of Champers flowing!
The final surprise was that J had organised a private tour of the rooftop gardens (they are 7 floors up and have been there for 80 years!). They are currently being renovated and will re-open in April. We saw the flemencos, which was breathtaking and it was lovely to finally see that iconic photo from the 60's come to life!... What a magical evening - thank you my lovely man :0) x

No win... no fee...


"Have you had an accident in the last five years, that wasn't your fault?, if so please call injurylines4you!!"

Bono...eat your heart out!


This is Jed wearing his posh hat and sunglasses, that his Auntie Lou Lou gave him for his birthday.
He was trying them on, in preparation for a visit to Grandma in March!

Oh my goodness...


...isn't this the cutest ever snowman!!!!!!
I nearly cried when I saw the final result (must be the hormones!).

It's "SNOW TIME"...


... Jed went mad at the site of all the snow a few weeks ago. We were out in it most days.
Here is Daddy making a snowman with Jed. What a lovely Daddy you are!

Phewww.... all this playing cars has tired me out :0)


All Jed says now is "Play Mummy, play" or "Play Daddy, play". He even says it to the Postman!!!!

Sleepy Daddy's Girl...


J with his favourite little girl!

Lots and lots of fun....


The Birthday Boy - what a cheeky chap!


Happy Birthday to me
Happy Birthday to me
Happy Birthday dear Jed
Happy Birthday to me!!!!!!!!!

Whooops.... I nearly forgot


Jed had his 2nd birthday (yes, 2nd birthday - can you believe it!!!).
We had a joint party with some of his other little friends and then we had a family bash afterwards and on the Sunday.
Thank you soooo much to Sandy for making Jed the Iggle Piggle and Waka Paka or is it Makka Pakka??? figures.
