Steve, Abbie, Alistair and James' Blog

Today Alistair had a chance to play with his second cousin Charlotte,
and to meet the newest member of the family, Edward.

This include a visit to the play park where Alistair had great fun
with Granny and Grandpa who have come to stay.

Alistair has been having fun playing with his new train set
which was a gift from his Uncle Greg and Auntie Hilda…choo choo!

Today had the opportunity to explore all his new toys and books
     
and have a story with Auntie Katherine before she headed home.

Its amazing to compare how Alistair has developed since
last Christmas – just take a look for yourself:

Alistair certainly enjoyed his Christmas dinner this year,
particularly the parsnips and then pulling everyone’s cracker!
  
We were joined by Abbie’s sister, Katherine,
who also had to share her cracker with her nephew.
Watch the video: What a cracker!

After the Queen’s speech it was time for pressies -
and what a lot of them there were!
   
It took a long time to get through them all,
especially as Alistair wanted to play with each one!
 

Steve, Abbie and Alistair would like to wish all
followers of our blog a very MERRY CHRISTMAS
  
We have summarised our year in our Christmas Letter
which you can download by clicking above.

Alistair is getting very excited about ‘anta coming to visit and so
this weekend he helped to put up the Christmas decorations.
  
   

This year Granny celebrates a special birthday so we had a special weekend in Cornwall.
  
Alistair had fun with Auntie Katherine, Uncle Greg & Auntie Hilde
and even met his Uncle Ben for the first time.

But Grandpa was definitely the favourite and Alistair learnt a new trick…
