Here's Basil helpfully conducting a durability study on Le Creuset homeware:


And here I am looking very pretty:

And I love to sniff flowers - these flowers are all grown by Traolach and Fintan - aren't they beautiful?

Basil walking

Basil standing

Basil has started standing up. THe other day he even took a few steps...

He is also getting increasingly fond of the swing:

He can be my co-pilot any time

I'll drink to that...

Wray Crescent

Time for one last visit to Wray Crescent Open Space before we sell the house:

On Friday it will be all done!

More sicily photos

Visit to Sicily

Here I am with my buddy Soren in Sicily. We are little archaeologists. I call this image "Towards a Hermeneutic Re-evaluation of the Theater as a Social Signifier in the Late Hellenistic Period". Errors are the author's own.

Dad and Basil swing in a hammock:

One word: Gelato.

Basil offered to fly us home:

More photos soon!

Springtime for Lucy

The nice weather has arrived at last, which means I get to spend more time in the swing park.

Basil really likes the bouncy dinosaur:

I have also been to lots of birthday parties recently. This one was for Alex:

And my new friend Arwen lives across the street and she has lots of dressing up cloths. I'm a cowboy!

a day out in the country

Basil spending some chill time on a bench:

I saw some deer:

Easter fun

Happy Easter everybody!

My grandparents sent me lots of Easter Goodies to enjoy. This is Lucy the Lamb. She's my friend who is a sheep made of chocolate. I'm going to eat her!

Basil got a chocolate duck called Basil the Baby. It looks just like him!

I helped Dad with the cooking. I had to be VERY CAREFUL with the SHARP KNIFE

This is what we made: Baked apples. Dad said it tasted better than it looks!

Then it was time for an Easter egg hunt. Basil was very good at sniffing them out...

I found another egg! Would you like to share it with me?

Happy Easter!

Happy birthday to me - again again

So, three years old. The big oh three. Thrice around the sun.

Good news is I get to wear my party shoes and meet Dad for lunch.

Where did this present come from? Looks like Grandma Sherry has been in the gift shop at Mediaeval Times...

I get to climb on the climbing frame:

Basil decided to have a go too

And mummy got me a snuggly lion. I call him Leo. That's short for Leopold. The Lion.

Party on Sunday
