Reuben 6 months old

Reuben has turned 6months old...we are excited at what is going on....teething that seems to take for ever and swimming, enjoying longer times between naps....(aaaaahh maybe) sleepless nights (less enjoying there for mummy and daddy but serious excitment for R) and now the latest is not just turning from back to front and trying to sit up but also doing the cheeky monkey walk and talk and climbing on anything that we can reach with our hands. The serious look of mischief on his face when he figures out a way of nearly getting up on his feet or doing something that he thinks we have not anticipated....ahhhhh He loves when daddy arrives home in the evenings and we make a huge deal out of it. Daddy first has to see if he is awake then he has to ring the bell knock on the door and finally appear.....hurray its a daaaaaaaddddyyy! Not a boring old mummy! Anyway life its busy busy....

REUBEN SWIMMING AND WITH MUMMY AND DADDY 12th January 2008

Hello

We had a nice day....just relaxing, after therapy (mum;s) we went to swim in the afternoon and Reuben's friend Cameron came too! Cammy was a little shy of the water but Reuben showed off a bit...(having been before in the deep) and so in the end everyone had a good time....! UPs, except R at the end when mummy lost her ballance and dipped R in the water three times just like at the Christening...kind of well...it was scary but we have survived it!

Here some pics of today!

CHeering up my granny

Hello

Today Granny had an eye operation back in Romania. She is recovering well and she will be seeing so much better R now that her catharacts(ap?!) are removed! HURRAY!R has been enjoying this week pretty much but also had some trouble with constipation due to trying to get used to powder we should have done it more gently...he enjoys his solids and seems to sleep better fingers crossed!

Mummy is in the mids of her exams but excited at the thought that she is going home for a months with R and daddy (well daddy will be coming back after 1 week). Anyway, life is good...right now....Annamaria still with us enjoying Smith;s crazy world.
Mummy still enjoys the driving...when daddy leaves the car with us!

I think it is becoming a necesity to get a second car for mummy or being donated one?! Anyone who feels like helping do let us know!!!!

Hello and HAPPY NEW YEAR AGAIN

R has been teething badly but no teeth yet! We had an interesting first week of the year 2008. Daddy was off on Friday so Mummy drove everyone to Bwater (where else?) where we met with Helen, Andrew, Ana, Peter and Simon (Helen JOnathan;s sister and her family) we jusr realised we had not taken any pictures but hey ho will do next time. IT was a long day as we were there for nearly 8 hours but was good fun. Mummy and Annamaria even managed to get some stuff from the sales...
Then Saturday we had neighbours over and went swimming. It was rather refreshing but really interesting....and R has slept from 8:30ish til he needed his feeds and through the nights with a bit of belly ache at 6 in the morning. Today we went to church and then to Noeleen and Calv for lunch....yes, busy busy week. This following week won;t be any easier too...we have visitors and hope to go swimming too!

Here two of the most recent phothoes! ONe of R on his way out with daddy for a walk in the fresh air and one today Sunday am before church!

January sales

Anyone wants a teething baby? He has been cute and good really but sometimes he gets so frustrating its hard to manage even with the three of us. Today is bye bye daddy and hope his day back in the office is good and goes quick. We have seen Sian and Jasmin, Jenny and Jospeh at the normal Wednesday venue and were able to enjoy a quick chat. Reuben was a bit moody but eventually quietened down. NIghts are still interesting but we are hoping that the 6months age will change some things?!
Anyway, just a few pictures of mummy and daddy enjoying some COSTA coffee at Bwater (where else) and Reuben enjoying his outings. Its so cold here its discouraging going anywhere else. But at least mummy proved she can safely drive to Bwater anytime....and maybe daddy will get her a second hand car so we can venture out more!?(Wishfull thinkig).
