A little bit of England

Today is Grandma Colleen's birthday. Happy Birthday!

For a day out on her birthday, Grandad and Grandma went to see the bluebell woods at Coughton Court. They sent us some lovely pictures of that we though everyone should look at to see the bluebells in England this spring.

Very Pretty!

More Teeth

Ewan now has 4 teeth, but the new pair at the top were not the ones we were expecting. Rather than the top front pair coming in, the ones either side have come in first. If the middle two don't hurry up we're going to have a little Dracula on our hands!

More Firsts

Since Ewan was born the we've managed to arrange things so that only one of has to go and do the grocery shopping while the other stays at home with Ewan. Today, Jen need to work on her thesis and so Fraser took Ewan to the supermarket for his first ride in a shopping cart. He loved every minute of it, being fascinated with everything on the shelves and all the other people in the store. The people he is always most fascinated by are other children and he had a few shrieks of delight for those that came up to our cart to waved and say hello to him. And being the charmer he is, he managed to get everyone in the check out lines to coo at him as we paid for everything.

Later in the day, as it was Easter Sundayour friends Tim and Whitney, invited us and a few others around for an easter dinner. It was a much needed break for Jennifer who has been slaving over her thesis, and Ewan got to meet and play with a dog for the first time. Daisy was very mellow and a good play mate, although there were a couple of moments when there was issue over the ownership of some of the toys in the room.

Good Morning!

This morning Ewan had a feed at 5am then went back to sleep. We got up at 7 am and left Ewan still sleeping with his bedroom door closed. While we were getting dressed Jen noticed the door to Ewans room was open.

"Did you open that, Fraser?" she asked.

"No, but I think I know who did....."

Sure enough there was a smiling little boy standing at the end of his crib poking his head around the door frame. "Good Morning Mom & Dad! Time to get up!"

So not only is he now standing and babbling when he ready to get up, he can apparently use door handles too.

Time to lower the mattress height in the crib to the last notch at the bottom we think!
