Day 157

An unexpected play date for Barnaby allowed me to give Alexei and Felix the choice of supper tonight (there was no chance of them eating the fish pie I was making without Barnaby around to lead the way!). The boys chose to have cream cheese and ham sandwiches whilst watching telly! As Barnaby was off […]

Day 154

This one is definitely just for the diary of events! Panto at Oxford – a treat for Alexei’s impending birthday (but that’s just a convenient excuse really). What a lovely day out, though Alexei wasn’t sure about the Wicked Witch –  made him nervous! She was superb, however.

Day 152

Day 149

There was almost a disaster for my project today. I was so busy with ‘stuff’ whilst the boys were occupied elsewhere and I had no time to take pictures, that when, after  I had collected the little one from nursery, I saw the sheep in a field with the busy road appearing to almost running […]

Day 148

Well, as taking some self portraits was part of my mission for this project, and combined with the fact for every other pregnancy I have taken a pic each week to show baby growth, I thought I would combine the two. I am only just over three months, but being baby number four, I think […]
