Happy New Year 2011

Hi! We had an interesting year already but Reuben has taken it all in his stride. He is happily back in nursery and enjoying his routine...(we do too). Tonight he said bye bye to daddy in his farm animals pjs and has been a lovely help to mummy as daddy sadly is in hospital.

"Daddy is poorley and we need your help" this is what R had to say to granny in the phone when we rang to tell her the news. Granny won;t be coming down to stay but she will visit but mama from Romania is arriving tomorrow to give us some support while J is healing. When we visited daddy today after his operation Reuben went into the shop and decdied he needed a Drs bag with various tools as he was needing to be a dr....I hope he will become one although I can see him more into something more adventurous and more physical.

His Godfather Matt has also visited us which indeed was lovely. Matt and Reuben seemed to have hit it off once again. He was only able to stay for the day but it had a lasting impression on Reuben especially when R watched his Godfather's wonderful and scary skating.

R seemed to have really taken likeing to crafts and especially sticking and stapleing and off course painting his nails....:)))we made a kind a crown (should have been a Christmas time activity ...) and he wore it very proudly.

Reuben decided to do his own facepainting....with markers....so we covered up like this the terrible art...:))) was supposed to be a bunny rabbit but I am no good at these things so....also a ladybird in making on his hand...

MOre art....with Zac in toe...:) Always amazez me how Zac and Reuben want to do same things. Reuben does not mind most often Zac infact we have recently noticed that Reuben is copying us and trying to chatter to Zac in baby language and such...its cute and so sweet.

So far so good he has been a bright little monkey...enjoying so much his time at home and at nursery. He has been asking to go to Thomas Land...and also to the farm to see animals and he alsohas been telling me more and more in more and more words about his dreams....his life at nursery and his aspirations. I am loving out convesations and lovng to see his interests and how he recognises people. He comes out with amazing and lovely things to say, loves saying Sorry, thank you, please and all used really well and approprietly. HE is eager to make me coffee in the morning (which I love and scuff down in an instant) he also loves meeting u with best friends Georgia, Nicholas, Livy, Zoli and nursery friends. Life is good I shall say for now. I feel blessed and I am loving every minute with my beautiful boy.
