We Love Lucie
Check out this video of J and O's friend Lucie. She's Katie's friend's Livy's older sister, and my friend Beth's oldest daughter. Complicated enough for you? But A.Dor.A.Ble.

On the Phone
My friend Beth called me this afternoon and there were pestering children on both her end and mine.
'Who's that?'
'Who's on the phone?'
'Can I talk?'
'I'm hungry.'
So we let Jonah talk to Lucie and it was very cute. He told her what he was doing and that they would be going to Ikea together the next day and asked her what she was doing. Then I think she hung up on him. Oh well.
He was A.DOR.A.BLE. His first phone call with a girl! Awe, I'm already planning the wedding (at least I know that I'll like the inlaws!).

Party Decorations
I'm watching Pride and Prejudice (my normal rotation between WW and P+P) and Jonah comes downstairs.
"They're having a party", he says.
"Mmm hmm."
"They need balloons."
He's right, after all. What's a party without balloons?

Knock, knock
Jonah and Owen have really been into telling jokes lately, so I've been trying to teach them some knock knock jokes. (I know, I'll probably regret this later.)
The problem is that I can only remember one: the orange/banana one.
So, got any good knock knock jokes? In return, I'll post videos...

4+4=8
Jonah is very into counting and adding and subtracting. He is starting to do simple sums on his fingers and is getting quite good at adding and subtracting up to ten. Owen is trying to keep up, but just isn't quite there yet. On the other hand, Jonah will count for Owen in French and Owen repeats the numbers in English, or vice versa.
You Figure It Out
I'll tell you two facts and then I'll let you draw your own conclusions.
Maggie Mae the Cat likes to kill lizards and brought one home tonight to show off.
Kate likes to put things in her mouth.
'Nuff said.

Nine Months Old
Kate is nine months old today, and celebrated by throwing her very first temper tantrum. Seriously. We were racing to the front door, I to close it, she to escape and I got there before her. So she lay down on the floor, face first and screamed and sobbed.
I found it very cute, but I imagine that reaction won't last.
What else is new? According to the MD she's in fine health, weighs 9.05 kilos and measures 75cm. Someone else will have to do the conversions as I'm already typing this against her will!
She's starting to eat finger foods and is hating when I feed her. She eats whatever we eat: couscous, carrots, sausage- as long as she can do it herself, she's a fan.
She's an expert crawler now, and pulls up on the couch, chair etc. She's developed separation and stranger anxiety, but loves to walk if we hold her hand.
And she hates it when I blog, so this is it for now!
