Today we have been swimming at Leith Waterworld. Its a great pool for kiddies as it is nice and warm with a sloping beach. Noah loved splashing around, kicking his legs and jumping the waves when the wave machine came on.

After a bite to eat at Pizza Express it was back to our apartment for tea and short bread, a nap for the boys and then more fun and games. Noah is crawling everywhere now and is particularly attracted to all the things he should not have such as cables, the remote control the telephone. He has also been pulling himself up to standing and wrestling with daddy and Gerard the dog.

Grandad visits Edinburgh!

It was a lovely to see Grandad yesterday. He was invited to St Andrews to watch the golf and stopped off in Edinburgh overnight to see us. We played games and read stories and when the little man went to bed, we enjoyed fish pie (lentils for me) and a box of chocolates.

Happy birthday Pops!!!

Dude, where's my car?

Where has mummy hidden my car? Ah, I see it! I go get it!

A day of music and art

Today we visited the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art.

The grounds of the Gallery are lovely and I particularly liked seeing the Henry Moore sculpture.

Noah however prefers natures sculpture and was facinated by the trees, leaves and daisys.

Scottish adventures

We are currently adventuring in Edinburgh. We have a beautiful apartment in the upmarket West End of the city, just a short stroll from Prince's Street. Edinburgh is a fabulous place to have adventures, it broadly comprises of the Georgian New Town and the Gothic Old Town with Prince's Street Gardens running through the middle

Noah and mummy like travelling to Edinburgh by train. Here Noah is enjoying his lunch.

Noah loves to play, laugh and have fun. He is now sitting confidently and loves rocking back and forth on his hands and knees. He does 360 degree circles on his tummy and can move great distances backwards.

Noah and daddy love messing about together. Here is Noah teaching daddy a thing or two! Still, daddy can't help showing off and going the extra mile with his 'scissors'!

You may have noticed how much Noah has grown. He loves his dinners. He especially finger foods and feeding himself with his spoon. He likes most fruit and veg and also likes chicken, fish and tofu. Mummy cooks him lovely yummy meals.

He is a determined little fella and lets us know what he wants. Today he was wrestling mummy for the spoon. He won....but also flicked a good dollop of watercress soup on himself...ok, it may be a bit thick but he liked it...mummy's special recipe!
