Slow start

Almost a week on from getting back from Seattle, and Leo is still struggling with mornings. This was him on Mummy's 4th attempt to get him up - "I want to sleep Mummy" - at 8.15am.

Fortunately he had a brilliant day at nursery and was very proud that he'd baked "fairy cupcakes".

Back in the swing of things

 I kept Leo away from baby groups again today so he wouldn't spread his germs. It probably wasn't necessary because it soon became apparent that he was back to his usual happy self. He had a fantastic time on the swings in the park.

I'm not sure chewing the seat was a good idea..

 It was lovely to see him smile (yes he does still have porridge all over his face from breakfast - oops)!

The lunch is greener on the other side

Leo is still recovering from being a bit under the weather, so today we stayed away from the baby groups and went and met Ben for lunch. Leo thought Daddy's lunch was much more interesting than his own..

Leo the explorer

Today I took Leo to soft play at Crystal Palace Sports Centre for the first time. He thought it was brilliant - he got so excited by all the new things to explore. It was lovely to have such a huge safe space to let him loose on!

3 meals a day

 Leo had a breakfast wrestle with his bib. He seemed quite fascinated by it today..

 Happy lunchtime face!

 Flashing his 5 teeth at dinner!

Bank Holiday Funday

Today was a Bank Holiday; Leo decided to make up for his 5.30am start with a relaxing nap later on in the morning.

 We went up to the Barbican Centre this afternoon and had some lunch. Leo loved sharing a Monday with his Daddy.

 For some reason Leo thinks his neoprene super-bib is very tasty.

Leo also enjoys banging his hands on the table at mealtimes.

Steamtrain Leo

The three of us went up to Granny and Grandpa in Amersham today. The sun meant we could enjoy the beautiful garden, even Nelly the elephant. We also enjoyed looking at a steam train puffing away and pulling a carriage from the 19th century. 

Spitalboy

We went up to Spitalfields today so that Sarah could get her hair cut. 

Here's Leo having lunch in his pram at a roadside coffee shop, and then back with Mummy after her cut at Pimps and Pinups. 

Finally, Leo doing the hokey-cokey before bathtime.
