we found avnew park near our house, it is REALLY neat, not quite finished yet but will be truly great when it is, has free bbqs and lots of fun stuff....



EVEN SCULPTURES!!!!! big wow!



and a skate park





well i have been busy looking at other peoples blogs every day hoping there will be lots of pics for me to look at but uave been very lax in putting any up myself! in my defence, i have been very busy seeing as ihave now gone back to work, 3 shifts a week and mum and ruthie have been here (YAY) and i have also been organising jannahs baby shower, soooo now that i have a little time today i thought id catch up!!!!!

he looks too little!

so wee zeke is getting so clever, he has liked to sit up on your lap for ages now and recently would sit there unassisted as long as you kinda proped him up with your legs, well last nigh, on the nice soft spungy surface of our bed, he sat, and sat and sat and sat!!! even on the floor he sat for a good minute or so but i certanily woldnt leave him there yet cos if he gets too figerous in his reaching or playing he falls over!!!!

un real!

"nice 'bawberries' mum"



3. eat.



2. sit down at you chair, make yourself comfy....



1. remove the heavy plate, just about as big as yourself out of the fridge and lift it onto the bench which is over your head, get a small plate out of the cupboard and put ALL 3 pieces of cheesecake onto it....





this little secquence of events JUST happened.
i paid no attention to rubes going into the fridge cos i heard him saying " i want some 'bawberries' mum" i tell him, nah we're going to have dinner soon, and think he's gonna get some water cos he was talking about the berries in the freezer this is what happens next........

a whole bunch more of His Cuteness

no teeth yet that i can see!







purse those lips!



THE VERY LASTEST THING I CAN DO!!! along with blowing raspberries!!















lots of differnt little vege plants growing!!



rubes said to me the other day, " mum come look his leg sticking out..."
he can REALLY talk now, every thing is "actually" and "i know", "get outta my way" "remember" "i do it" " whats the time?", "dont smack me"" i did it the other day...." " in a minute" and even yest morning when i told him off, "dont talk to me like that mum"!!! hmmmmm maybe it is better when they cant talk!!!
