The top photo is of Lauren's garden - we now have new recycling bins and so I took one of our old ones and planted carrots in it. Lauren loves checking on their progress every day! I have also started a worm farm and Lauren loves going to feed and talk to the worms too! The next 3 photos are of Lauren jumping in the rain! The weather has been so bad, that she takes every opportunity to get outside when she can, but this time when it started raining again, she was having so much fun that she just stayed outside! The next photo is generally what happens if I try to put Ella under the playmat whilst Lauren is around - Lauren thinks it's time for her and Ella to have a sleep, so she gets a blanket and lies down next to Ella! Unfortunately Ella doesn't really get to play with her toys, but then again she doesn't mind what Lauren does, as long as she's near! Ella just adores her big sister and watches her everywhere she goes.

The last photo was taken a few weeks ago - Lauren has gone through a phase of taking her top off (whether pjs, or normal top) and turning them around - this was the first time she'd managed to get it inside out as well! The blanket over her legs becomes a dress, skirt, wings, headdress - just depends on her mood! Could she be a fashion designer I wonder?!

I've been diagnosed with Post Natal Depression, which is probably why the websites haven't been updated recently. Thankfully the medication is taking effect, and I've been feeling much better and more positive this week. I've realised that I haven't really taken many photos of Ella, so will try to do so and update her website by the end of the week.
