The workbenches are getting smaller.


Daddy made our workbenches from the old doors that were in our house before we decorated it. Once I couldn't reach the worktop, but now I don't fit under it! They're quite deep, so I love to hide under them, especially if daddy is chasing me and saying "don't touch". I post things through the holes where the door locks were too. Daddy does make a fuss when he has to move everything to get something important back!

I like to site next to daddy while he's typing and draw. My favourite thing at the moment is to draw around the outline of my hand. Daddy will only let me have a pencil. When I ask for a pen, he takes me on a tour of the house and shows me how I've used a pen in the past. If I see daddy using a pen, I hold out the back of my hand and ask him to draw a star on it. I've often got stars drawn in pen on the back of my hand when daddy picks me up from kindergarten. I don't think daddy approves.

Oliver's shirt and tie


Nanny sent the shirt in the post, so here is Oliver, wearing Nanny's shirt. Oliver's bigger than I was at his age, but daddy says that he slept better when I was a baby. Oliver always wants to eat, and wakes us all up at night.
