DH and I just before leaving for his work party only four days before Cotton-tail was born.

Cotton-tail’s first photo.  DH and I are both looking at Flopsy and Mopsy.

Flopsy and Mopsy have stuffed their shoes with bread and have moved their chairs into the middle of the kitchen.  They are now sitting side-by-side on their eating their bread out of their shoes:

Today Dh took Flopsy and Mopsy out for an Autumnal walk to a local country park where there are a few farm animals to see and lots of trees dropping their beautiful orange, yellow, brown and red leaves all over the place.  Oh yes, and, most importantly, lots of muddy puddles!  Flopsy’s been taking lots of photos with various family members’ mobile phones lately and DH let her have a go with the digital camera today and here are the results:

We’re really impressed, as we have been with her phone photos recently.  We had wanted to get her a digital camera for Christmas, but we are aware that it would be much better if we could go into a shop and try some out.  Unfortunately I’ve got to the stage of pregnancy where I just can’t manage shopping without my back becoming really painful so that option was sadly out.  Hopefully she’ll still be keen on having one for her birthday in May, though and we’ll be able to go and spend a nice long time choosing her the right one.

Here are some photos DH took of the pair of them today:
