After a visit from a lady from SeaFish at school, Nathan took it upon himself to taste as many types of fish that he could lay his little hands on! That boy is really dedicated once he picks his cause! Following much cod crunching, prawn munching and squid slurping, we all got a bit fish-ed out! BUT it was really worth it, when Nathan was awarded the pupil of the week certificate for knowing the most facts about fish. It was also worth to see Nathan in his chef jacket, the kid is so cute I could eat him up!
During a lovely summer day (don't see many of those these days do you?) Esaias went to Narnia (the garage) and was awarded this huge metal shield by a wise Narnian (ok, it was Uncle John!). I caught sight of Esaias sneaking this up to his room and called out to him, "Hey! Where did you get that from.?" "Narnia!" was his reply, as if that was the most normal thing in the world, and he carried on walking up the stairs. Moments like that make my life seem a little surreal!
A good time was had by all at Chris's birthday party. We particularly enjoyed his cake, which was just incredible! The cake was topped with chickens, a cabbage patch and even a row of carrots that could be pulled from the "mud" (chocolate frosting...yum). While we were there Mum and Chris gave us some chicken and quail eggs, so the following morning we had boiled eggs for breakfast. Free range eggs are really so much more delicious.
Phineas has quickly become far too heavy for me to hold him in the bath, and so we bought him a shiny new bath chair, which he LOVES! He has just turned 7 months, and gets really cross about laying down. He much prefers to be sat up and will strain to move into a sitting position if he is laid down. Such a funny little boy!
