Fun in the Sun





Hi everyone! I know I have been incredibly 'slack' at posting anything lately - sorry!!! My time seems incredibly precious at the moment as we prepare for Baby No2's arrival and any spare time I get I try to lie down or at least put my feet up. Anyway, I thought I'd try to post a few photos of this past weekend when we took Reuben to the park. Nathan hadn't taken him on the swings before and the weather was so lovely that we took advantage of the opportunity. Reuben went on the swings, the see-saw, the slide, and a couple of other things and absolutely loved it! I took a video that I would've loved to post but I think I have accidentally deleted it from the camera and am not sure how to get it back - oops! Any camera gurus out there, feel free to give me some pointers on how I can retrieve it because it was very cute.
As for any other news, let's see... I am less than 3 weeks away from my due date for Baby No2, Reuben turned 10 months old yesterday and although he isn't fully crawling, he is desperate to get moving and I think he's a bit frustrated that he hasn't quite gotten all the coordination together that he needs. He loves his food, is as social as ever, and can take the rings on and off this cool little toy we have that has colored rings that stack up on a 'post'-type thing - don't know how to describe it but most of you would recognise one if you saw it. :) He claps his hands, can drink out of a straw, has 8 teeth now, and I often find him in all sorts of unusual positions in his cot when I go in to get him up after a nap. His personality is developing as well and he will let you know when he's getting frustrated. He also wants to help you feed him at dinner times and I've found I have to give him either finger food or a spoon or something to hold onto when I feed him, otherwise he tries to take the bowl/spoon out of my hand and that usually ends in a big mess! He's growing so fast and I must say I'm glad I'm having another baby soon because otherwise I think I'd be a little sad that my Reuben is flying through 'babyhood' and will soon be a little boy!
Well, gotta post these photos and then try to have a little rest before my No1 baby wakes up. I'll try to be a but more diligent about posting in the coming weeks but no promises. :)
