July 2009

After enjoying another 4th July in Manistee, we were all saddened to have to return home to the UK. However, the blow was softened somewhat when Little T managed to win herself a bike donated by Harrods at a local school summer fete !

Oscar clearly said the word 'mama', much to Mrs K/C/KC's delight (especially as it was 3 months ago that he said 'dad').

Our very good friends - the Callaghans came over to visit from California. We quickly caught up and it felt like only yesterday when they left the UK (it doesn't seem long ago that I had deep and meaningful conversations about the use of lettuce leaves and breast feeding !!!).

The children all got on well too.

Mrs K/C/KC sadly had to return to work after her maternity leave, at the end of the month. Partly sad, partly euphoric !
