Recently we were sent some presents for Marcus in a box. The box has proved to be very popular, given it's boy-like size!

Yum yum lunch!

Marcus is a very good eater. His favourite foods are: apple; mandarins; marmite and cheese sandwiches; MealMate biscuits; baby carrots; Weet Bix for breakfast; and Dad's roti breads. He's gone off raisins which used to be a favourite.

Last week Marcus had his second Christmas. He got lots of great presents and was spoilt as I'm sure all two-year olds are. The lovely presents haven't quite overtaken the clothes pegs and the yogurt container lids as his favourites yet, but they're getting close!

Marcus' first haircut

Last week Marcus had his first haircut. It was a pretty momentous day and we had to take several weeks to prepare ourselves for it. Shelley had already trimmed his fringe previously but this was to really cut it at the back. Unfortunately, his powers to make mischief haven't diminished at all!

Well, it's been too long since we've put anything on the blog. We'll put some photos and talk on over the next few days.
Here's a shot from the Guy Fawkes display in Wellington last month. It looks like Marcus is interested. He was. For about 3 minutes. Then he wanted to play with all the stones next to Te Papa for the next 20 minutes!
