Another cold, wet day with the temperature gauge in the car showing only 2 degrees which meant that both walks today were as quick as they could be with my hop along leg - bruising now turning a lovely shade of yellow - and a dog who was very interested in chasing rabbits. The rabbits must be getting use to her and are very blasé,  only running away at the last minute, this only encourages her.

With all the gorgeous cuddles I've had from baby James over the last two weeks I couldn't resist having a wee look through our baby albums when I spotted them while tidying up. It's funny that this is how we stored photos 15 years ago, I have a couple of files started on the PC and keep promising to try to make photo books for both the children, maybe I'll get one sorted for Ky for her sixteenth. Ky appears in all these pictures, not really favouritism, I just loved her with her brother. Note the Percy engine that the new baby gave his sister, a far bigger hit than baby doll which we thought she would like to copy mum with. She never did take to playing babies with dolls but was a fantastic help looking after Josh.
