I can't believe he's so grown up already O.o Time really flies, but he's adorable!

Believe me, James almost lost the adorable factor tonight.

I took the side off his cot today. Tonight it took almost
a good three hours to get him to settle and go to sleep.
He would get out of bed, I put him back into bed,
this happened over and over again.

However, he did eventually go to sleep:


As soon as he's used to sleeping with one side off, I'll remove the other side
of the cot and it will be his bed for the next couple of years...
Unless he has a really big growth-spurt before then.

At least James knows the truth about himself:

He took the label off the sweet and sour sauce bottle and stuck it to himself.
He then thought he'd look cute about it.

X- P Lol, that made my day.

Silly James.

We are a week an a half away from his second birthday. Wow, I can't believe my baby is almost two!!

At the beginning of the week, James and I took a drive to Levin (half an hour away) and we went to the Adventure Park (a huge outdoor playground). Here are a few of the photos I took:

Fireman James




I need to work on getting him to slide down feet first




He loved walking through the Thomas train


A very safe merry-go-round


He really loved the Thomas train!!


The baby swings weren't good enough for him,
though he wasn't happy about me stepping away to take the photo.

I took James in for a haircut today. My husband has been mentioning a number 3 for quite a while and the woman suggested putting the clippers over the sides and back, so I said sure, and then she suggested just going over everything because his hair is so thick and it would just have looked wrong to only do the back and sides so once again I said sure. It was after she'd already put the clippers to his hair that I had second thoughts (hindsight is a wonderful thing)

My baby now has no hair

The photo isn't good quality because it was from my phone and I couldn't get him to stay still - and the one I have of him not moving, he's screaming. I'm gutted that I did this to his hair (even if I wasn't holding the clippers). Hopefully it will grow a bit before Christmas.

[CaraGenie]

Ok, I slept on it and have I decided I hate his haircut (and hate myself for getting it done). I can't wait until it grows out again, and it had better grow out quickly.

It's spring here, and there are baby animals everywhere. Today James and I went to the Lagoon to feed the ducks today (ok, we went so I could see ducklings). It's been raining quite a bit over the last few days so James found loads of puddles to jump in.

James had to carry the bag of bread,
though try telling him that the bread is for the ducks.


Mallards, the mother wanted the bread,
but the babies wanted nothing to do with James.


Look at the size of that duck's foot!!!!
Yes, that is our bag, which I picked up as soon as I'd taken the photo.


These ducklings are the cutest,
and they didn't seem to mind James too much either.

As you can see, James' hair has once again got that reddish tint to it as it is growing back (thank goodness)

My baby turns three in a little under two months.

He's had the same bed since he was a few weeks old, the base has just shifted height and the sides of the cot were taken off to make it into a bed (*points up*).

However, he's been falling out of it quite a bit lately, so I decided it was time to upgrade his bed. We had a spare queen-sized bed in the spare room (also known as the den), and it had been put against the wall because the cat was ripping the bottom of the base. I took James' bed apart and moved the big bed into his room. Here are some photos of him in his big bed:

He spent the first part of "bed time" doing forward rolls on his new
bed, and this is him after he crashed out with his two giraffes
and dog (she's tucked under his arm)

I tucked him in

I don't think he was too impressed with the camera flash.

Wow, haven't updated this in the longest time!!

Here's a photo of my little 5 year old in the outfit I got him for school photos:

Sorry about the messy bed, I should have made it before I took the photo, but with James (at the moment) it's either take the photo when he's in a good mood or miss out - even if I did have to take four because he wouldn't stop bouncing.
