Normal life is resumed

After all the hectic things that have happened recently, its been nice to just get back into a routine and we've been to the beach, spent lots of time at the parks having picnics (making the most of the cooler weather!) and Emily has braved the swimming pool a couple of times (its freezing even in mid 20 temperatures). Emily is continuing to dote on Dylan and he spends most of his time smiling and laughing at her every time she goes near him - he is certainly a fan of his big sister. Emily had cultural day at her nursery which involves all the children attending in their national dress and taking a national dish from their country. The parents all then attend for a picnic to share the foods and the children do a little parade. Emily dressed in red white and blue and I made a victoria sponge. We had to do a collage about England and Emily was fascinated by the Queen. We're starting to get to know people on the compound where we live which is nice and apart from being inundated by Ants at the moment we're really enjoying our new home. The other most exciting news to happen....we have finally got an ikea which opened this weekend! Yippee! I've attached some recent pictures of what we've been up to.
