We got the keys!
Just to let you all know that we finally got the keys to our new house! :-D Our very first guests were Emily, James, Thomas and Anita. The boys ran straight in to explore the house and garden! Then our new "neighbour" Uncle Mike came around a shortly after. (I think we'll be seeing a lot more of him now!) Now that the easy part is done (actually buying the house ;-)), here comes the…
Close to Completion
Another big bit of news that we haven't told everyone about is that we are buying a house! Just before my 6-week stint back in August at Amaze (in Liverpool/Runcorn), we started looking at houses, saw a couple that we really liked... so Lucy got the ball-rolling whilst I was away.

Who's a Cheeky-Chops?
We just had to share this photo of Anita... She's such a cheeky-chops! Last Friday night, Lucy got some pizzas from Asda... Baby Anita couldn't take her eyes off the garlic-bread - she absolutely loved it! Davey wasn't too impressed when Anita did a garlic-sick on him a bit later!…
