Gifts

It's our tradition to organise our family Christmas celebration around the time of Maxie's birthday in early December. So at our "birthday afternoon tea" today, with three teachers in the family, it seemed natural to do some list making (which other members of the family paid us out about!).

I was astounded to see 6 year old Ollie write this ON HIS OWN!

I love his breakfast menu ideas and will give a lot of thought as to how we can combine jelly, toast and chocolate cake into the breakfast buffet!

Speaking of gifts we had a short but sweet visit from London Davey this week, here for two friends' weddings and a few days with Canberra family. He collected almost a case full of baby clothes for little "peanut" and lots more admiration from the younger set, who seem to find him a magnetic attraction.

Although I don't know why!

Ella thought he was funny and adorable - and don't we all!
