Names, etc.

We're still no closer to thinking of a name for this boy. Raf and I went through his trains to see if any of those names would work, and since then he's been calling the baby 'Baby Charlie'. So perhaps we have a name after all!

We're not sure how Raf is really feeling about being a big brother. He loves babies and this weekend, at the Veg fest we go to annually, he was especially interested in the little people. He's been helping me sort through baby clothes, and yesterday, after I washed all the covers and sheets from Raf's Moses basket (which he slept in for literally 5 minutes as an infant), he took it down from the stand and played 'sleeping baby'. It was very sweet.




Today we had a lovely play date with Raf's friends' Sawyer and Colby. Their Mum, Karla, is lovely, so we had a really fun morning with the boys. Colby is really great with Raf, and Raf loved watching Colby on his boogie board today.








Raf was sooooo tired when we got home. He is totally addicted to the most annoying show in the world (and he's been watching it a lot since I am so tired) - Wonder Pets. It's quite sweet as the show consists of three animals saving other animals, and they sing as they do it. The trouble is they're not great singers and the tune is the same every episode. There's a line in the song that goes something like: "what's going to work? TEAM work...", and Raf is singing it continually, at the moment. It's actually pretty sweet.

Here he is watching an episode, almost asleep. As Rich took the pic, though, Raf said, "cheese'! Funny boy.

  2. Gabriel has been known to climb in the washing basket with a blanket and play babies. They look so cute when they do this.
    We still think of them as our babies, even when they're three or more, but it's such a shock to see them with a baby sibling and realise just how big they've got! I remember doing this with my older children. Gabriel will always be my baby though. :)
