Beautiful Weather and a Weekend of Gardening

Last week the weather continued to be beautiful... we spent much time outside in the back garden, walking around Aldershot, going to the swings at the park, and we went walking again at Alice Holt with some friends.

This weekend we also planted in our garden. I now have a herb garden as well as flowers potted about. I also cut down a massive shrub in order to make more room for the patio table. However, I am in the process of hiring people to put a door leading outside from the dining room and sourcing materials for Stephen to build me a deck over the next half-term, so all those planters will eventually have to move!

Sophie seems to be getting funnier and more interactive with every passing day. She is developing such a personality and loves making me laugh and being tickled. She also really enjoys being outside and around other babies, listening to and making music, singing, squealing, cuddling, reading, playing and dancing. I don't know where the past 5 1/2 months have gone! Where is the tiny little thing I brought home from the hospital?
