As you can see Alice is enjoying her slice of home-made chocolate cake. Mummy and Daddy also enjoyed the chocolate cake.
On Saturday morning we took the opportunity that the beautiful weather gave to us and visited the birds at Washington Wetlands Centre. For those of you who live in or around Newcastle and haven't been, it really is a fantastic place to visit. Alice really enjoyed walking round and seeing all the different birds.
At the end of circular walk they have an activity playground. You can play with water and there were ropes and slides etc to jump, climb and slide on.
Alice didn't really like this platform which moved, she wanted off it immediately it started moving. We also got to see lots of wee baby ducks, we thought Alice would be really impressed with them, but she wasn't.
A little video of Alice at Washington. I think her walk here is very reminiscent of the ducks. It wasn't meant to be, just how she walks when she's walking fast. Then Alice and Stuart working the waterwheel. Alice loves to jump. Today she tried to jump over Stuart's roll for his back. As you see she is giving it a good go, but doesn't quite manage it. Kank, the Kangaroo (and Kong the Joey, the names she's given them) jumps rather well too. She is given rather a lot of assistance from Alice though.

Aw thats a lovely video, but the first thing that jumped out at me was how much her hair has suddenly grown! I love the way she tries to jump over the roll then when she cant make it just steps over - so cute!!
I know her hair really has grown loads recently. It's also getting really curly.
I think I might start adopting Alice's philosophy on life and just enjoy what you like, scream at what you don't like and then jump everywhere. It seems to be a wonderful existence.
She really walk like a wee duck didn't she:-)
Isn't it great to be wee and not care about chocolate on your face etc!
If you want her hair to grow faster and thicken up, then keep cutting it! My friend had to do that with her daughter, just to get rid of the baby hair. It's actually amazing the difference it's made - especially if you compare photos of a year ago!
Rhoda,what do you mean about being wee and not caring about having chocolate all over your face?
I'm not allowed to cut Alice's hair, given how long it's taken to come through, we want to give it every chance. Stuart also needs to learn how to put clips etc in with a squirmy target.
Hi Pauline - at last I have internet connection again and could see the video. I bought internet connection in France 6 pounds for 1 hour so I got a quick look at the pictures but didnt see the video - I was like a bear with a sore head in that hour, no-one was allowed to distrub me!! haha Love the pictures and the video - I also noticed the hair and I think she also looks sooooo like you even from behind, the shape of her head/hair - its amazing!!
Anyway we just got home again, had a great time so now I am on properly checkiing out everyones blog. bye for now
