Taking a stand and catching up with the Boys!

Little Maddie has decided that it's time to take a stand! She is discovering the wonderful independence that comes with holding on to tables, couches, cots and what ever else she can get her hands on to stand up. She is also looking suspiciously like she would like to crawl. While it is amazingly exciting to see her attempting to wriggle her little body across the floor, Simon and I are hoping that it will take her quite a while to master the art! A baby on the move means 24 x 7 supervision.... no more popping her on the floor to enjoy her toys and trusting that she will be in the same spot when you return!

Maddie had a lovely weekend catching up with some of her favourite boys... she had a lovely pub lunch with her little buddy Lucas on Friday (Bronwyn and Nick's adorable little boy who is 4 1/2 months old and absolutely heavenly!), and a trip to Spitalfield's Markets in East London with Simon Dunstan, Barney and Howie. Barney and Howie are desperate for Maddie to be intelligent, so they buy her a book every time they see her. This weeks book is called 'Your Different and That's Super' by Carson Kressley from the American version of 'Queer Eye for the Straight Guy'. It is so sweet! Granny Roo (Rozzi Roo) also sent her a wonderful book called 'Where is the Green Sheep?' which is proving to be a bedtime favourite.

We are off to the premiere of The Simpsons Movie on Wednesday night and planning a weekend away to The Big Chill Festival in a few weeks. Lots to look forward to.

Lots of love to all xxx
