Christmas 2013

Hiya,


We have come to the end of Christmas Day 2013. Here is a video we filmed over the last week that includes our Christmas Day with the boys. Alby and Charlie were asleep before their heads hit the pillow tonight so we have had a peaceful evening! Please excuse the length of the video - I tried to keep it short but there was so many funny moments that I just had to include.

We hope you have had a marvelous day and are enjoying your time with family and friends whever you might be.



Love and big hugs from Anna, Don, Alby, Charlie, Rupert and Baxter.

Its been a while...

It would seem having 3 children under 3 is keeping us pretty busy... So here is a catch up from the last month.

Rupert is generally a very calm and happy baby. He is doing really well and even letting us get a bit of sleep!









Charlie is his biggest fan. Constantly wanting to give him kisses and cuddles. Very sweet and sometimes a bit much!


Walks in the park have become a bit crowded... Luckily all three manage to fit in the pushchair- just!


But the park has been beautiful with all the autumn colours and leaves to throw.


We had an outing to the playground...



And when the big boys aren't fighting they play really well together!


We had a few drainage issues last month - the boys directed from the window.



I had a lovely birthday in November. I was very spoilt and got given a very wonderful coffee machine!


Charlie quite likes to make coffee...


To get into the Christmas sprit we took the boys to Santa's grotto and to meet 'Farmer Christmas' as he is known in our house.






We also put up the our Christmas tree. It no longer looks like this as the decorations are no longer present from Charlie hight down...


We have had a few visitors to come and meet Rupert.

Aunty Georgie came and played in the leaves.


Uncle Mark read some stories.


Isaac had a bath.


And Rose watched some TV.


I made this photo of all three boys to show how similar they are - Alby and Charlie are about 4 weeks in the photo and Rupert is 8 weeks... Which one is which?!


It's been pretty cold over here so we have to rug up pretty warm to go out...


Alby thought my boots might keep his feet a bit warmer.


The park has been its spectacular self... Here's a few pics.




We will endeavour to to post again before Christmas but if we don't manage it we wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a safe and happy New Year.

Introducing Rupert Rutherford.

On October the 11th at 9.23am Rupert Donald Payton Rutherford joined the team. Very punctual, arriving on his due date, he made a speedy entrance into the world and weighed in at a respectable 9lb 11oz. 

Here he is - the first few hours.






And resting beside Mumma before we headed home.


Alby and Charlie are absolutely besotted with their little brother. They love to hold him and kiss him and squeeze him quite a lot...


 


Rupert kindly gave the boys an easel as a welcome present which the boys are loving... They helped Daddy put it together.



Don has been doing a great job looking after the boys while I have been recovering and looking after Rupert. They have had heaps of fun - playing at the Village Centre and lots of walks in the park...






Here are some pictures of Rupert - 11 days old.







     






He is doing really well - putting on 90grams in the first 5 days! Another hungry baby who feeds quite often and who sleeps more during the day than at night... He has a great set of lungs on him and uses them often!

We'll keep you posted with his and the big boys progress - when we can find the time!

Love from Anna, Don, Alby, Charlie, Rupert and Baxter x
