There he is! :-) Clement and his Uncle Nat! Two weeks ago we were privledged to see my brother Nathanael - he came and stayed 2 nights with us. We were very glad to spend some time with him and the children were delighted to have him here. We took him to nearby Dunrobin Castle, which we all enjoyed - we hadn't been before. Most of the photos on this blog are from that day.

Deborah at nearly 7 months I think (photo taken a few weeks ago). She was rocking back and forth and trying to attempt crawling. She's not quite there yet but she's just this week finally learned to sit up by herself! She can take herself from a tummy position to sitting up very quickly and is quite pleased with herself. Next time I'll have to post some photos of her sitting up. The photos on this post have been ready to upload for over 10 days, so trying to do a quick blog before they're really dated!

The delightful Deborah having a ride on Daddy! :)

Biggest 3 doing a jigsaw with Uncle Nat - though I think they ended up leaving him to finish it! ;-)

The children really enjoyed the "falcon display" at Dunrobin Castle. Here's the man with a barn owl.

One of the falcons

Clement going round in circles (and nearly getting dizzy) in a "dungeon" - he loved it in there! (I think it was probably a potting shed or something similar.)

"Let me out!"

Waiting patiently for her dinner - or maybe she'd just finished it!

the front of Dunrobin Castle. This photo and the remaining ones were all taken by my talented brother and his amazing camera! :-) He got some really good ones, so sharing them here!

My Clement! :-)

My biggest 3 darling children

and again

Meant to be a cuddle, though I'm not sure the picture gives that impression! lol :-)

Me wearing Deborah and holding Clement's hand

An amazing photo Nat got of the owl in flight!

Castle

I love these photos he got with flowers in front of the castle

Me and my sweet baby! It was fantastic being able to tour the castle with ease wearing Deborah in a sling. Certainly it would have been impossible to use a pushchair here! LOL

Biggest girl

The always moving Benjamin - a real action pic here, which truly captures the spirit of him! :-)

Clement!

my dear Abigail

Yes, she is very sweet!

Nice pictures! You know, Noah didn't sit up on his own until *after* he was crawling. Babies vary so much in how/when they learn to do things.
Amelia was pointing out most of the people in the pictures, I had to help her with C & B's names but for some reason she hasn't forgotten who Peter is! Nice photos Rach! How is the weather now in Scotland? I heard it has been nice lately? xx
Thanks for the comments, Sharon & Evelyn! :)
As for the weather, we have had quite warm days over the past month or so, which has been nice. Sunny days give me a lot more energy. :) This past week has been wetter than it's been for a while - and today it has rained just about non-stop all day!
