| It was Ptolemy's 2nd birthday |
 |
| He very much enjoyed opening his presents... |
 |
| ...And playing with his new toys |
 |
| He had lots of cake for his birthday... |
 |
| ...Sadly this Hey Duggee cake didn't survive when he decided to sneak over and join in the decorating! |
 |
| He had a fun birthday party at home |
 |
| The kids even made the adults join in with musical chairs |
 |

| Our current project is the Sumerians, thought to be linked to the Tower of Babel in the Bible |
 |
| We also built our own 'towers of Babel' |
 |
| Zachary also built his own version of a ziggurat - a Sumerian temple |
 |
| We had a go at writing our own cuneiform clay tablets (Cuneiform is thought to be the first ever written language, created by the Sumerians) |
 |
| We visited the World of Country Life and met Angus, the mascot deer |
 |
| Both sets of kids enjoyed running around |
 |
| We also visited Living Coasts and saw the penguins up close |

 |
| Daddy was away at a conference in London so we enjoyed some activities related to our favourite books; here is the enormous turnip treasure hunt game - we needed to find all of our favourite characters around the house to help us pull up the enormous turnip! |
 |
| Here we are about to go on a bear hunt |
 |
| Uh oh! A forest. A deep, dark forest. We can't go over it, we can't go under it... |
 |
| Uh oh! A Bear! Quick! Back through the cave! |
