This week I ended up with more photos of Joseph so he's going to feature more heavily!
Joseph continues to receive far too many presents...this week Aunty Kate very kindly sent some presents for George and popped in a special treat for Joseph. She sent him "Byron the Bulldozer" from the Thomas the Tank Engine family. He's a bright yellow bulldozer and a welcome addition to Joseph's collections of 1) earth moving equipment and 2) Thomas trains/road vehicles. Byron has been such a bit hit that he's been to Bear Park for the day (although hidden in J's bag once the realisation that sharing would need to occur) and also been taken to bed and slept on. Aunty Kate has become one of Joseph's favourite people this week I think.

(he slipped on the floorboards onto his bike - resulting in the scratch on his nose)
Dan took Joseph to the library and we now have about 20 books out. A favourite from this visit is Richard Scarry's "What Do People Do All Day" - we thought this might be a bit too "advanced" for Joseph but he loves looking at the pictures and talking about them - it features many of his favourite things - trains, tools, ships etc. Luckily, I have a copy from my childhood so we'll be sorted once the library's one needs to be returned.

Last week we featured Great Aunty Aida with George, this week I managed to snap Joseph and Aida (reading Richard Scarry!!).

George has had another good week - taking a bottle each day and sleeping well. He's talking a lot more, smiling (very cute but hard to photograph), kicking his legs up and down, poking out his tongue and batting the toys hanging above him on the activity mat.

Joseph wanted to hold George a lot over the weekend - usually at the most inconvenient times (ie when I'm feeding). George actually looks like he's enjoying this cuddle!!
