We bought this little football goal with blow-up football about 6 months ago and we've just begun to play with it. So far, throwing the ball is favoured above kicking, but when he does choose to kick, he's pretty good - very straight and neat. :)

... more fun to have Daddy kick it for him though!

Max has been belly laughing a LOT!

Playing quietly with his bead puzzle (a Christmas present from Sally, Alec and Jack - thank you!)
Blowing bubbles outside Sally and Alec's with the bubble sword!

Jack having a go!

Snuggle time with Daddy

Snuggle time with Ninja! They are firm friends now. :)

At the zoo looking at the monkeys - this was the Langur enclosure.

Max's first trip to Monkey Mates was a definate success! We had a blast playing with the cousins. Max loved the ball pits and going down the slide with the girls. Thank you girls (and Cara!) for taking it in turns to watch our boys - Sally and I are very grateful! Monkey Mates is an amazing place, a massive climbing frame with slides and ramps and pits and a flood of children! It is very loud, but very fun. True to form, Cara was calm as you like and took Max to play in the toddler area right away, and soon enough my shell-shock faded and I was able to join in too!







This is a typical shot of how we end the day in our house before Max's bedtime. Max absolutely ADORES music and in particular, music on TV, so one of our latest favourite TV shows, 'Glee' is perfect for him. We let him watch 2 or 3 songs to wind him down for sleep. He either sits on the sofa next to one of us or (more often) snuggles into Daddy's shoulder perched on the arm of the chair. VERY cute. :) He is super affectionate and cuddly at the moment, and we just love it.
