recently...

it hasn't stopped raining, thank goodness we live on a hill. though it's not the weather for washable nappies... 

i realised we have a growing collection of red, yellow and orange vintage vehicles. i love toys that have been through the mill of love, so much nicer than shiny new things somehow.
wee baby j has been smiling in his snooze, bless. and i've brought the orange knitted trousers out of the loft.

o-o has been making use of the big box which our new orange bin was packaged in. here his companion mademoiselle o puts on a brave face for the camera. in other fun o-o is reluctant to wear clothes, he looks like a wild boy, naked and usually covered in a mixture of paint and melted iced lolly.

i should have been doing something like this (via design scouting). instead i have been sitting on the sofa, drinking tea and listening to o-o's eclectic spotify mega mix.

the zoku quick pop maker arrived yesterday. it may just be the best thing i've ever bought! works a treat with fruit juices and yoghurts and you can make stripes and include slices of fruit, hurrah and trice hurrah. here's o-o enjoying a mango and kiwi combo (his choice). the fabulous hawaii five o(-o) shirt was a recent present from uncle simon and auntie anna. thanks guys.
