Another weekend, another BBQ

Some chicken, pork and corn in the barbeque

Image via Wikipedia We’ve just had another great BBQ today, with some friends who came visiting. We tried some new things today. We had some chicken drumsticks, which I’m always a bit wary about; I always manage to undercook them and have to put them back again, but this time they came just right. We…

Arthur has a new mattress!

We’ve been looking for a memory foam mattress for Arthur for some time now. You see, has had a cabin bed which bad coming up to chest height with storage (or play area) space underneath. He’s had a spring mattress which he loves jumping on, but we don’t let him do this as, if he…

Twins’ first BBQ

Babies not sleeping

We’ve hit a funny patch with the babies not sleeping well any more. We had got to a point where they were waking up once a night for a feed, but now they seem to be taking turns at staying up. You can see in the photo alongside that one of them is taking a…

A website for the kids

I’ve just split up the website I had created for Arthur called Arthur’s First Steps. Well, I’ve set up the site so that each of the kids have their own area and renamed the site the Owenson Kids! Camille will be putting some more material up on the site soon, and I’ll keep you updated…
