It seems a miracle but we had 30%C in England this weekend. The week that has just passed we ad four at least really hot days....we had to reinstall the paddling pool and hide in the Vines for picknick....:)) boys were enjoying it and I think we did too. Sunday we had gone to the seaside (as well as the rest of London and South East ...yes we were stuck in traffic with brilliant kids) and we had our first proper swim in the sea!!! He was so excited and in love with this murky sea that he kept going in all the time...once even fell over and nearly scared the life out of us....but still that did not stop our little Zackie prevailing in getting into the big sea.
Wondering how can he get closer to the sea....love love his love of sea something he must have gotten from his mummy.
Mr. running towrads the sea....love his pink swimming nappy from aunty Elena. His friend Andrei also sporting one of these cool pink nappies! I love love them.
This kid can pose ....he loves being photographed. Loved the sand too and helped very happily dig the biggest thing on the beach. We had three very very competitive men and about 6 older kids as well as some 4 younger ones....so everyone was at the digging stage....I think Zac was having a rest here.Talk about Zackie being a monkey?! Well....in the last two months I have noticed huge changes he is making huge progress in speaking and he is becoming very cheeky. Although terribly clingy he is always after some nice mischief just like his brother. I have to watch out as he reads Reuben's mind way too well. Reuben only has to move towards an object and Mr raeady to snatch it off him arrives all equipped with flattering eyes and smiles and rapid movements. I am finding this stage a bit hard. he still wakes really early about 6ish and Jonathan keeps being the bestest dad ever and takes him down and entertains him while I have a lie in....still. He then comes with me to school to take Reuben there and I think this last week we had managed to move towards one nap a day....so often try and keep him up til 11ish but he then needs the bed. One or two days he has nearly fallen asleep at 9:30-10ish ....and although part of me thinks perhaps I should let him have two naps if he needs them the other part of me thinks....I just hope he would go just once for a nap and let me do things around the house. .....on that note I would like to mention its not easier since R has gone to school its somewhat harder as Zac does not get busy playing with Reuben while I need to do things...no he needs me constantly....
I am contemplating swimming lessons but as I am half way succesfull at a job interview I think I want to wait and see before making more committments. Its been generally nice weather, getting together with friends, some times spent together at home playing or choring:)) and off course we had started doing some singing at the library....will see what comes next. I think the four eye teeth are out (canines) and I can see just one more that looks that is on its way out. Sleeping is better but I could wish for just a longer sleep in the early mornings while its terribly dark and very very hard to wake for the adults.:)) But I cant compain as most evenings most boys are in bed by 7:30 which means I can get an evening to ourselves.
