Happy smile

Snapped this pretty, happy smile this evening; just before she took 40 minutes of squirming to put down to sleep! She seemed to be much more interested in looking at and smiling at Daddy than actually closing her eyes. How sweet!

I want your breakfast?

I was tapping away at the computer this very morning, when all of a sudden, my tapping was accompanied by additional, much louder, tapping. Couldn't quite work out what it was at first. Thought that Pauline was walking rather loudly upstairs.

I eventually went to investigate and found a wee friend trying to break his way through the double glazed panes in the kitchen, woodpecker style. I managed to scare it away with a washing-up brush. My weapon of choice; burglars, look out

(incidentally, there's a flat roof out there for the gull to stand on. It's not hovering and pecking at the same time!)

Alice and animals

We haven't posted for a while. Here are a few more pics of us. Mostly with animals. Alice is becoming a lot more interesting and interested in items around her. She has started to chat with her wee animals when she's in her chair waiting for food. She has also started to smile at them too. Remember you can enlarge the images by clicking on them.

Alice is starting quite a sizeable collection of elephants. She loves looking at this mobile we were sent by some friends.
She also enjoys playing with and chatting to Cow.
Just a funny picture of her when we got back from church. The hat is a bit too big for her and so she didn't actually wear it.
Chatting to Hoopy Loopy; her new best friend.
A picture taken by a friend for an article she's writing about Pauline for a Christian women's magazine.
