Reuben's First Birthday
















A year has passed! He is a big bouncing boy, not quite walking but a force to be reconed with, a fast crawler and a formidable holder on to toys when older children think they can take them from him.
Yesterday, we had a relaxed day as a family, did the card and present opening in the morning. After sleeps we drove to Newmarket to pay in Reuben's birthday cheque into his savings account. We were planning on going on somewhere else but by the time we'd got out the house, we had ran out of time. There was a lovely tea party waiting for us at Nana's and we didn't want to be late for that. It was a lovely party for Reuben and with the fabulous weather, we all got to sit out in Ellen and Dan's garden and enjoy summer with them. Reuben is coming on fast and will stand for a few seconds now without holing on to things. Leon is of course, very chuffed with all of Reuben's presents, we did get Leon an unbirthday present too, a Ready Bed for the holidays.
