Last month my parents came down and visited their 8th grand-son. It was a great chance for us to get a family photo! Oli last week turned 4 months and is developing well. He's as lovely as we've said previously, doesn't sleep much, as we've said previously, and is loved by his brother, as we've said previously! Marcus is great and developing well - his reading is surprising us every day - we bought the book "One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish" last week and he could read about three quarters of the words in it. How much he comprehends I'm not sure but he's doing well.
They're both gorgeous and doing really well.

Last weekend the weather was fantastic in Wellington. We spent well over an hour at the park and Marcus had a great time going on the blue slide, then running over to the big slide (those who know Island Bay park will know what I'm talking about) and rolling balls down for us to chase and then going back down the blue slide to start it all again!
