Lucas is one year old!!

Lucas is the first of my batch of baby ‘rats’ to turn one. Here he is celebrating his birthday with his friends.







The Chinese believe that when a baby turns one on his Chinese birthday he should he should have a chicken leg to bite on. Want to know why? Please go to the Old Wives Tales on babiesconsult.com

Childhood ingenuity

Lucas is 11 months old and just learning to stand but cannot do it without support. Here he is trying to stand and play with a toy





“If I let go of my right hand, I will fall down”









“If I use my left hand to hold me up, I cannot play with the toy”








“Aha! I will lean against the sofa so that both my hands are free”








“There! Now I can use both hands to hold the toy and still stand up. Am I not a clever boy?”
