The rest of November

November was the end of the settee in the garden. We had really enjoyed having it there and throughout months in the summer it never rained and it was fine, but by November it was raining most afternoons and although the settee would be scorched dry by the fierce morning sun it was really suffering. It was falling apart as you can see. Still Michael loved it and spent a long time clambering around on it.

He is getting better at feeding himself these days. He eat with enthusiasm and concentration, although accuracy could still be improved.

Michael is practising his romance skills. He already has the part with the rose all worked out, he's not sure about the part with girls yet though.

I like this picture of Mike and I although it shows the results of his not being careful climbing the chairs in the hallway.

Day 496 Mum's birthday 8/11/2012

Of course the most important date in November is Rocio's birthday and we had a party at the house for it with Rocio's friends. Mike had a great time with lots of people to play with and lots of dancing. Here he is doing the other thing he likes, watching the world from the comfort of the manta on mummy's back.

Day 470 A day in October 13/10/2012

I've just got so behind on the blog thst I think I'll post a few quick photos and videos to try to catch up. Here is Michael with Rocio in the garden at a wedding that I was playing violin at.
