(One of two of)
The cutest little one-year-olds
Covered in cake and dirt
As he plays and snoozes through his very
First birthday party.

Today is sunny, and the house is making us crazy,
So the four boys and Mummy go to the Wildlife centre.
Afterwards we meet Papa and go to Balmoral
Where sleeping babies barely see a wave,
So enraptured in dreams are they.
After, Lowie helps Mummy with a Christmas wax!

There are plenty of hands to help Bastien and Lowan
Celebrate their First Birthday!
We love them so much and are so excited to see
The beautiful little men they are and are becoming.
Their presents: a ball each (much beloved)
And some lovely sleeping bags.

Today we see cousin Maia after nearly a year away!
And feel scared and needing cuddles in Aunty Julie's pool.
15 December 2012
Christmas lunch
And a triple birthday celebration
See the chaos of life
Rearrange into a beautiful symmetry.

Ordering at the cafe is kind of crazy!
Waiting for the food, even more so...
Bas and Lo take turns throwing balls out the door,
Keys skidding across the table, and standing up in their high-chairs.
Lunch is quick, though lovely!
11 December 2012
Now that Bastien is taking tentative steps,
Lowan gleefully seizes the opportunity
To use the walker exclusively.

Sandy cuddles at Clovelly with Mummy
As Basie chases balls all over the beach.
But all good sandy things must come to an end
With a very cold shower before bed!

Coveting the roses
And discovering Heart of Gold
On a Nanny daytrip to her beloved Swanes.

The chaos of Japanese at Broadway
Sees Bas and Lo spread a glorious rainbow
Of food scraps in a radius around our tables...
After, cute-face Lowan
Checks around to see no-one is watching
As he zeroes in on someone's abandoned Coke bottle.
4 December 2012
The crazy playtime minutes
Between bath, desperate escapes from towel and pyjamas,
And sudden realisation of dressing-gown and impending milk,
Turning the wild elation to frantic tears.

27 November 2012
Whenever the boys see an open door
They crawl helter-skelter to get there before it closes...
And what better reason to be outside than Purple Snow?!
26 November 2012
With Lowan and Bastien desperate to play trains with their big brothers
The phrase "GO AWAY LITTLE BABEESH!" can be so disappointing!!

24 November 2012
With exhuberant confidence
Lowan crawls into the water
And just ... keeps crawling.
Luckily Papa saves him
As he looks like he wants to stand up
As the rising water reaches his head
But doesn't know how to get there yet!

Walking is becoming more and more attractive
When interesting things fall over - just - out - of reach...
18 November 2012
The twins are becoming almost too heavy to hold together...
Particularly when they're joined by big brothers!

Happy surprise at Nanny giving him a flake of chocolate...
Cracks into the biggest grin.
Chocolate makes everyone happy!
