Fun with Grandma

Posted on February 20, 2006July 28, 2010 by Charlotte

I’ve been getting alot more wakeful and have been enjoying some lovely days in the sun with Grandma, including a ride on the cable car, visit to the Botanic Gardens, to watch my sister feed the ducks, a trip to Staglands to feed some Rainbow Trout and some Guinea Pigs (amongst other animals!).






On Friday evening we went to see Daddy after work and had a drink in the sunshine. There were some big yachts to see and music playing. It was a magic evening and nice for Daddy to enjoy a few beers. Charlotte really enjoyed herself and had a yummy milk chocolate cocktail. I’m enjoying Mummy’s milk and thriving, growing by the day. I still feed about every 3 hours around the clock, but settle quickly to sleep at night, so Mummy is feeling good (the sunny weather helps!).
