Vroooom!

Our boy is car crazy! He collects them every where he goes. Got a new one today from Grandpa Tom and had to sleep with it at nap time.

On Monday a parcel arrived with a bus charm for Izzie's bracelet and for Bax a card with an elephant driving a car - HE LOVED IT! First he thought it was a little book, "Book! Book!" he kept saying and then he saw the front "Car! Car! CARRR!!!" He has it on his bedside table now and points at it often during the day.

A note on books: Bax has discovered how to eek another few moments out of the day, he will now sit through an entire story book, sometimes two, it's wonderful to have him all rugged up in his winter PJs after a bath and to read to him without him getting up and leaving or worse still slamming the book mid way through. Tonight I read a story about a little red train and then he went and got another book, that one really put me to the test; The Old Woman and the Spider - IN MAORI!
