Walk over Cadbury Hill
We live incredibly close to Cadbury Hill, yet we hardly ever make the time to go walking around there. So one Saturday morning we decided to go for a walk over the hill, head across The Star for lunch and slowly wander back. We knew that Cadbury Hill wouldn't be ideal for pushing Katelyn in her buggy/pram... so we brought out "the harness"! Unlike other harnesses I've used, this one has the baby on the back. I…
Katelyn's First Birthday
Since Katelyn's 1st Birthday fell mid-week, we thought it would be best to have a little party the weekend before, so that most people could make it. What started off an a simple get together for "tea & cake" slowly spiralled out of control. A few sandwiches turned into a buffet and the teas & coffees turned into beer and wine (and plenty of it) ... and there was still lots of cakes! I'd set-up an…
Snow in Sunny Yatton
According to the news, it's the worst snow the UK has seen for 18 years! It has been falling pretty heavy for most of the day. We were quite excited as this is the first time that Katelyn has seen snow, although she's a bit young for a snowball fight... but that didn't stop little Anita asking Lucy & I to go outside just so she could throw snow at…
Merry Christmas 2008
It's been a while since our last post. As usual, we've had lots on, but never enough time (or make enough time) to tell you about it (whoever still reads this). Katelyn is coming on loads, each week she develops something new. She's been trying to crawl, but seems far more interested in standing up and trying to walk (with assistance from us or the coffee table, or anything about half-a-metre high!) A…
Video Clips
We bought a new (small) video camera a couple of weeks ago. (For those who are interested, it's a Flip Video Ultra - it's compact and has a funky flip-out USB built-in; so we can upload videos from anywhere.) Katelyn seems to be progressing quickly at the moment... from her gibber-gabber to dancing in her bouncer and even starting to get more mobile (rolling around on her play-mat). We're dreading her starting to crawl!…
