January 01 our new baby grandson   I am pleased and proud to announce the safe arrival of our 3rd grandchild .......born 2 weeks early ! Isaac James Maxwell Barker
was born at 9.49 am
on 30th December 2008
weighing 7lbs 11.05 ozs .
baby Isaac & new parents Gavin and Sonia are all doing well . December 12 A busy Fergus and my mistake !    Well ,it seems my venture back on here has backfired already ... due to the changes I have deleted a lot of my contacts by mistake ! so sorry about that folks :-(
I have no idea how to get back the deleted names ,so if you read this please invite me back onto your contacts &I hope all will be well.
Maybe it was bad timing for me to start blogging just after 'improvements ' had been made ,what with one thing and another I never seem to have time get online ...and I still need a new PC .
Procrastination and sewing seem to be my hobbies just now ..lol
We have another grandchild due in a few weeks so I have been busy sewing for the nursery & I made William more new bibs and he needed a larger playmat as he outgrew the smaller ones a while back etc etc ...all good excuses
Fergus is growing up very fast ,he informed me today that ,& I quote , "the Father Christmas (at the playgroup party )was probably like the Mickey mouse that came last time ..just someone dressed up ,because Father Christmas is far too busy just now." but he did believe that he left the sleigh on a rooftop !
Fergus is certainly the brightest button around here :-) He has an amazing vocabulary and knows all the letter sounds and most of the names too .As I read to him he follows the words and knows if I miss any ...can't get away with skipping a word ,never mind a page .As Fergus' was born in september he will be five years old when he starts school.
By then he will probably be reading and writing quite well .His drawings are improving every week & he loves painting....especially with a small bucket of water and a real paint brush .I let him 'paint' the glass on the patio doors ,he spends ages doing each pane & spreads a towel out before he starts to catch any drips .
As you can see ,he is the light in my life and a real grandma's treasure .
March 24 Grandma's no 1 treasureFergus coloured in a picture for a competition and won 3rd prize in the under 3 group.
I should have taken a pic of the colouring before sending it as it was very colourful.Fergus is so happy to have a'letter' & even posed for the photo ! Fergus' chicken pox have almost gone now and I am hoping to get photos of both our grandsons together this weekend .Sorry not to have been around ,my computer is so slow and I am seriously considering a new one .....until then ,thanks for recent visits & I will catch up eventually ...I must just make it clear that the page Fergus is holding is the certificate he was sent & NOT his own colouring :-) March 11 FERGUS HAS CHICKEN POXI took a photo of Fergus showing his spots , but they don't show up too well .Thankfully he has not been troubled too much by them & as they came out over 4 or 5 days he got used to it gradually .The ones on his head kept him awake one night but apart from that & the runny nose he had for three weeks before all is well with him .
The timing was bad as our other baby grandson & family were visiting at the weekend and I wanted to get photos of them together ....maybe next time all will go to plan .Fergus was sad not to be able to " play with William" but he did see him & said " baby William is beautiful grandma " January 30 Baby ...another grandson to treasure :-) William John Ellerington Barker
weight 8lbs 9ozs
was born on the 29th January 2008
to proud parents Wayne and Liz ...
announced by a very proud grandma :-) |
