Red Faced

Lucy asks Stewby if she might have a small morsel more of ham. A reasonable request until you notice how much food is already piled up on her plate.

How can I possibly choose between these two bacon covered sausages?

Aha ha ha hah ha ha ha haaah

Aha ha ha hah ha ha ha haaah, Aha ha ha hah ha ha ha haaah!

How much do I like sausage rolls?

Quite content

Upsy Daisy

Aunty Pink has got Lucy an Upsy Daisy outfit.

Daddy has got her a light sabre. I'd love to see that episode of In the Night Garden.

Upsy Daisy with her Mummy and Daddy.

And anothergain.

Swinging in Whitton

They have set up a Victorian style swing in celebration of the Whitton Christmas lights being turned on.

Lucy starts of a little nervous

Confidence is picking up

She's soon into the swing of it.

And then a piggy back from Mummy to get home. What a treat.

Barnes Pond

Mummy and Lucy are visiting the duck on Barnes Pond

Lucy likes Barnes Pond

Lucy's turned into a Dalek!

Pasta

Mummy and Daddy have taken Lucy out for a posh meal in an Italian restaurant. She starts off with a sophisticated aperitif.

I wonder what this pitta bread will taste like.

Lovely!

All the best food critics eat pasta with a spoon and fingers

What do you mean there is a little bit on my face?

He gives her a quick masterclass.

"Thank you Uncle Matt"

Lucy meets Temujin

Who's this little fella that Mummy is holding?

It's Temujin! Uncle Matt and Aunty Alexis' little baby

Daddy has a turn holding the little fella. Tem likes Uncle Ports.

Temujin is going sleep

Lucy and the Tuareg Hat

A few years ago Mummy travelled intrepidly to Malawi Mali where she gained inspirations and experiences that only a trip to West Africa and the real Timbuktu could possibly realize. During her astonishing journey she collected this very traditional Tuareg hat

Lucy likes it very much. I don't think she knows where it comes from!

Cheeky Monkey

Who could this be? It appears to be a Monkey.

Aunty Pink has discovered the answer. It's Lucy!

"Actually Stewby, I have to confess it was me all along"

Aunty Pink and Lucy both like stripes

Pink and Tiss

Pink eyes Lucy's new T-Shirt with some suspicion. Why is she sporting Gallic apparel?

Well - it is because Mummy has just run a 10k race in La Belle France. Specifically the Foulees de la Rouge Flamande in Bergues. So of course she got Lucy a present. Daddy got a present of some Belgian beer. Mummy knows Daddy well. We also got to share some magnificent french bread and cheese after Lucy had gone to bed. Yum.

Mummy arrived home to find that Aunty Tiss (provider of many of Lucy's favorite books) had popped over for a visit. Here she is bonding with Barney.

And here she is bonding with Lucy. Lucy was astonished that her Aunty was so clever as to get her a Madagascar T-Shirt. Librarians are a canny lot.

Pwayground with Lorna

Lorna* is giving Lucy a solid push on the swing. Wheeeee.

Lucy loves her new winter coat. "I'm a little bear"

The little bear leads Lorna*, Mummy and Stewby on a rocking horse ride.

High five Mummy!

*All pictures of LC approved by Mummy. Don't shoot the messenger.

Climbing on Mt Pink

Lucy and Pink are playing.

Lorna and Pink give Lucy a good tickling. "Anothergain tickle" says Lucy, cackling like a drain. Lorna and Pink know how to amuse Lucy.

Then it's back to jumping on Pink. "Anothergain Pink"
