We haven't see a huge amount of the standing recently, but it's getting slowly more frequent. Ok, so to be honest we rigged the last (and first) image of Cara standing, but that was only because she had been standing before we got the camera out and wouldn't do it again - it was "representative" of her first efforts. This is the real deal as is shown by the face.

Nook
Good to have the cats back living with us again. They're clearly enjoying being around us - shame it's only until the building works start on the house.

Cara on the phone
After speaking to Catherine on the phone, jonah and Cara started playing with it. This is a picture of Cara copying us, although when there is really someone at the other end, she just turns her head to the earpiece to see what's making the noise - which slightly defeats the object of using the handset.

Jo's Bike
Jo is really into his bike and is currently enjoying riding around and around and around the Saint's View carpark (which isn't that big). Still, keeps him out of trouble.

Jonah's portraits of Spencer from Balamory
His drawings are starting to be recognisable. It's interesting to see that most body parts are correctly positioned except for the arms which come out of the sides of the head.
Cara's standing
Cara stood up (in fact it was yesterday), she crawled up on my leg and let go. It must have been for a while, because I had time to shout "Meriel, Meriel, Meriel, Meriel, Meriel, Meriel, quick, quick, quick, come here, come here" and she did and she saw - I make that about five seconds. Cara was naturally oblivious to her achievments.

L'Ancresse age illustrator
Good Friday - a walk up to the rifle range at L'Ancresse (no shooting today). Couldn't resist lining the kids up against their (approximate)ages and stocking up on birthday invitation materials.
Meriel's Birthday
Me, Jonah & Cara made this card for Meriel for her thirty-somethingth Birthday - which was nice.

But deperately wanting to walk...
Lots of sore heads at the moment. Cara is determined to stand up... but hasn't really got the balance yet. So she topples a lot. Getting better by the day though - she's just started 'cruising' which is apparently walking along things whilst holding on.

Now Cara's got chicken pox
Cara's had chicken pox for four days now, so it should be coming to an end soon.
Anyway, the sun's shining and we were on the beach for a walk and loving it - it's so much like summer (apart from the jackets & hats) and we can't wait for that.

Jonah's got chicken pox
We deliberately exposed Jonah to chicken pox about 18 days ago. Sure enough he started getting some spots yesterday morning. So far he seems entirely unaffected apart from the spots. We're working on keeping him distracted from the itching. Chocolate cake seemed like a good start. No sign of any spots on Cara yet.

Cara crawling
Cara has started crawling and is very happy that she can get wherever she wants to. She has 2 red patches on her knees because she is crawling so much.
Meriel & new kayak
After 4 months of weekly trips out kayaking I finally bought my own gear. I took it out once the day after it arrived. The weather has been very cold ever since so its had no more trips. Maybe next saturday.
Jonah on his bike
Jonah LOVES his bike. He got it last June for his birthday and wasn't in the least bit interested. We collected it from storage a month ago and he's learned to ride it really well - he can even use his brakes properly. We've been out for walks with him cycling and struggled to keep up with him!
