Happy Daddy Addy Day!!!

We had a lovely Father's Day here at the Manor. In fact, Adam said it was better than his birthday!





The day started with some quality father son time in the AM while mommy slept in.


Then mommy prepared a "full American-English" breakfast for daddy which included everything except the blood pudding. And he ate it ALL.

Then daddy spent the day with his favorite things: Bill Murray movies, watching and playing soccer, his NEW Ghostbusters video game, and, of course his family.

The day wrapped up with a homemade curry for daddy's dinner, but as you can see, John didn't stay up for that.

Thanks for all you do Daddy! We Love You!!!

Glorious Grandparent Gala

Well this kid is certainly lucky to have the most wonderful grandparents on the planet. We have been lucky to spend some real quality time with them all in these last weeks. And I know what you are thinking - Hmmmm, maybe all of John's cuteness isn't just from Adam and Vicki! ;)

Little Nugget of Joy

Here we are with a full fledged 6 month old on our hands! At John's 6 month check-up he weighed in at 13lbs 100z. Of course that was two weeks ago. He's now getting a regular course of solid foods, including sweet potatoes, bananas, and-we tried some advacado but the explosive diaper situation that followed has mom reluctant to try that again for a few weeks!

So with all that yummy hitting his tummy, he now weighs 14lbs and 5oz!

As the photos will show we have been very

busy at Nan West's house in the pool and visiting with our friends the Aldays. John has also been enjoying his bouncy chair and brand new high chair from Mr and Mrs Rawls. Many Thanks!

And, of course, there is the obligatory teddy bear shot.

It's enough to wear the boys out as you'll see in the last photo.

My apologies for the layout - one day I'll figure this thing out!

An Eventful 6th Month!

Well, as we approach John's 6 month milestone, we have much to report. The first piece of news is that we are enjoying a wonderful visit from John's Grandma and Grandpa Partridge. Both have proven to be a huge help around the house for Adam and me. Flexford has never had so many walks!

We also celebrated John's Christening dedication with some friends and family in a ceremony by our good friend Byron Alday. All the grandparents were very proud! Uncle Pete was also on hand filling the role of The Godfather.
