Some are born to geekdom, others have to work at it. Despite writing software and wearing glasses, I assure you that I fall into the latter category. Here’s some proof. Until I had Oliver to encourage me I had only watched the first Star Wars movie. And I never watched Star Trek after the first […]

Later, Hayley and Oliver decorated the cake that Hayley had bought for her. Hayley then prepared a picnic while Lucy, Oliver and I played upstairs. Then we all headed off to […]

Lucy got her first proper Clarks shoes today. Her size is “3.5 G”. The selection of colours available had a touch of the “Model T” about it: she could have any colour she wanted as long as it was pink.

Walking: it’s the way forward
October 26th, 2006 · 1 Comment · first, first steps, walking
This morning before I left for work Hayley saw Oliver walk without prompting across the room for the first time. He was standing up against the coffee table and decided to go and see Mummy who was sitting against the sofa. But instead of dropping to all fours and crawling as he usually would, he […]
