Oh Isabella..

A gorgeous day at Isabella plantation on Sunday afternoon. We saw the azaleas and rhododendrons in full bloom. Many different varieties in different hues.

I didn't quite like my hat on, so each time mom put it on, I took it off.


This is a "Broom" , Cyctus in Latin.
A lovely day for a picnic by the ducks and the pond. Taro even brought proper scones with clotted cream, strawberry jam and tea, although I had none of it.
Putting on a different hat now. A little too big for me still.



Hannah's like a big sister to me. We saw fallows and deers. Leaving Richmond park now. We had a swell time!

Grandma's last day

With all the sunny weather, the tulips suddenly sprung out of the ground, and the buds flowered. It always amazes me the many arrays of colours in creation.
We spent the morning in Guildford, one of our favourite places in Surrey.
There is a castle ruin with a lovely garden filled with flowers at the moment.
After that, we did some shopping. Then the stomachs beckoned us to Nando's. Grandma kept me entertained whilst we waited for the chickens to arrive.



After a heavy lunch, we took a walk in the nearby woods, Newlands' Corner. (daddy's fanciful photo taking bit..)

On the way home, we stopped by Clandon Park. It was afternoon siesta for the little one who was pretty tired by then.

Pottering around..

Life is full of things to do and see. Tumbling around with grandma, we had a swell time.

Spring flowers to smell (and pluck..). We have been having a nice warm spell of sunny weather, albeit dry. A little rain now would be good.

People to call.. Hello, grandpa.. are you there? I can say "Da da" now, and wave bye bye..

Ducks to quack at. A bit different from the ducks in her bath tub though.

Canals to explore..

There's just so much to do.

A time for everything!




After more nights of teething pain, seven now and more to come.
Apparently the canine teeth are the 'killers'..which are yet to come. But that means more types of food to experiment with now.

Another birthday.. Mom's!

It was such a lovely sunnyday. Dad brought us to Wisley. Not many flowers were out then as the weather was quite
cold before that.
Here's me and my grandma. We are enjoying the beautiful English gardens.
I took a little stroll. Have to practice my walking.
Then there was the Alpine house, with lots of desert like plants. Very beautiful indeed.

Here's mom blowing her birthday cake. It looks like she's turning one too. It will soon be my turn, I can't wait.

Partying..

Amelia just had her birthday party at the Little Gym. There were lots of fun and games for us babies. We sang songs, tapped along, walked on beams, swing on hand rails and did head stands.
There was even a parachute for us to get under and also lie over. I didn't fancy that much though as it started moving before I could sit up.

The best part which I enjoyed was the food bit, I must say. We have earned our feed.

We even had balloons to bring home.
That was a tiring affair.
