Who can cook? Harry can cook!

Here are some pics of my little chefs. Harry and Zaccy are helping Mummy
make blueberry muffins (yes I know the bowl isn't Tupperware don't tell my
mother - but it was a Xmas gift!)

And more pics of the boys snuggling up ready for their midday nap... It was
sadly a short lived nap, so Mummy didn't get to have her midday sleep and is
feeling very cross due to the tiredness (and yes I do realise is is 12.02am!
And I'm still up - but most mothers will agree it is the only time you can
get things done!)

Harrison

Here is Harry wearing Zaccys baby bonnet, and "laxing" in the bath. That's relaxing for all those that don't speak Harrison...

Harrison at playgroup

Here is Harry with his friends at playgroup today. We went to one of those indoor playcentres!! And had an absolute ball!!! Harry, Zac & I actually went yesterday by ourselves to scope it out and Harry was up playing in the maze where I couldn't see him and just started screaming!!! So I freaked out and was calling Harry, Harry, come to Mummy!! But he still couldn't find his way out so I had to dump Zaccy in his pram and leave him with some poor women I didn't know and climb up inside this maze that goes 3 levels high and is built for children, to find him... Thankfully he had worked his way back to close to the start before he sat down in obvious frustration!!
But it was enough to give poor Mummy a heart attack!! We then played on the jumping castle for the rest of the day, until I had to bribe him out to the car, I tried dragging but it didn't look good dragging a child kicking and screaming out of a play centre by the arm!

Today however he had his little friend Lily with him and they had an absolute ball!! They would dissapear inside, as Lily's mum and I sat outside the maze stressing and occasionally catching glances of them through little windows!! After about 10 mins of running through the maze they would come rocketing down the 3 storey slide and then come running in to tell us what fun it was!!! Then off the would run again to dissapear in the maze!!

He is now sleeping off the exhaustion if only I could convince Zaccy to have a nap as well I would be set!!

Pictures of Zaccy





























I had it brought to my attention that it didn't appear that we had many pictures of our beautiful little Zaccy!! And I must admit to being a little slack as there is nothing like the number we had of Harry (my excuse is that our camera is almost broken, and barely takes the pic - and having less time!) But I have taken a few and here are some of them.
So do you want an update? Well Zaccy 14 weeks and is nearly rolling from him back to his tummy! (can already go tummy to back, but I'm sure I've blogged about that already). In fact last night he was on the floor and I looked over from cooking dinner and he was on his belly!! And I'm pretty sure he did it himself! Although can't be 100% as Harry has a habit of rolling him over lately (after seeing me do it)... Actually the other day I was out hanging clothes on the line and the boys were lying together on the floor watching Hi-5! I would hang up a row and then quickly glance through the window to ensure Harry wasn't sitting on Zac. And after about 2 lines of clothes I look in and Zaccy is missing!! And Harry is lying on his side where Zaccy had been!! So I go bolting in! And Harry has rolled Zaccy under the piano stool and onto his belly, has stuck the book "digginest dog" under his face and is lying there next to him (hence blocking him from my view) reading to him!! It was hilarious, I should have gotten a pic but was more concerned with telling Harry not to roll the baby over! Another trick Harry has developed is that he will grab Zaccy by the legs and drag him across the floor to where he wants him to be!! Again funny if you ignore the carpet burn factor!!

Other than that Zaccy is a real gabbler at the moment he loves to sit and coo and gaa! He had found his tongue in the last couple of days and is constantly poking it out!! And blowing raspberries, much to his own delight! His neck is really strong as well as you can see in some of the photos... He loves trying to hold on to your fingers and do sit ups from a semi reclined position. And finds his hands or fingers (or even Harry's fingers) to be a culinary delight.

Well that is all I can think of at the moment!! Will update again soon!
