Fun with Friends

We've had a busy week, enjoying the company of various friends. Zachary was especially pleased that he could have lots of attention and some different people to play with. Firstly, it was lovely to have Tim and Catherine from church (Bethel Baptist) over for a meal and a good chat:

Then, on a beautifully sunny day, we had a wander with Vickrum and Phobe around Roath lake, topped off with a delicious lunch at their house in Lakeside (Zachary had some 'delicious' mashed swede - well, he seemed to think so anyway...). Unfortunately Mummy forgot to bring the sunshade for the walk and Zachary wasn't happy facing the sun, so we ended up carrying him around the sunny side of the lake.

At the weekend, we had a fantastic time and delicious food at Josh and Rachel's house (see Wednesday's video if you haven't already). Rachel is an old friend from way back in our teenage years at Devon Christian Youth Camps and now has a 4 month old baby called Ivy.

Midweek, we had a girly (plus one boy) evening watching Miranda (a Mirandate!). Mummy isn't the biggest fan of Miranda, but her friends are trying to convert her. Zachary found it a little overwhelming to have so much attention all at once from the girls, and being very tired, he wasn't in the best of moods. Once settled, he slept well in Auntie Phobe's room.

"I just can't take it anymore!"

Zachary was pleased to see a lot of Auntie Vickrum this week. She popped in and helped Zachary eat his tea on Thursday. 

Tasty porridge!

We are all looking forward to next week, as Daddy will be off work for half term. Weather permitting, we hope to go on a few pretty walks around Cardiff.
