Baby wow wows!

Helen is sister-in-law #2. Her laborador, Poppy, had puppies in Feburary and we took Ana down to Tunbridge Wells to see all 5 of them. This is the 2nd time Ana has seen puppies but I think only the first time she realises that they are baby wow wows.

Baby chino!

We go to Clowns in Cambridge quite a lot. It's an Italian cafe...friendly, food is great and they love Ana. She gets her regular froth milk (Baby chino) everytime she goes there. It's our favorite hangout place!


She's a dancer...And she sparkles and she shines


Sophie Broadhead gave Ana this boa after the Rusby-Dodson Wedding. Ana is the 'madam' and has to wear boa with kitten heels....oh, and don't forget the bling jewelry!



Ana's version of 'Say Cheese' for the camera.

She's a dancer...And she sparkles and she shines-Video

Ceilidh-ing!

The lighting might not have been very good for taking video but I thought everyone would like to have a look at the Barn Dancing Ana was so fond of. It is scottish dancing called Ceilidih. You don't require a dance partner just listen to the instructions and lots of energy! We all took turns taking Ana on the dance floor. She absolutely loved this and would let anyone who had the energy and muscle to take her for a spin....Ba-Ba, Giles and Julian (irish relatives) and even myself.

Rusby-Dodson Wedding in Windsor

Granny's older sister had several grandchildren and one of them got married this past weekend. Charlotte Rusby married Joe Dodson in Windsor. This was Ana's first wedding.


Can you tell the Broadhead resemblance? Alistair (Andrew's older brother) is standing with 2 of Uncle John's older grandchildren, Julian and Giles (L-R)


Granny posing for the camera with Helen, Alistair's wife.


Cutting of the cake. Traditional english cake is a fruit-type cake not unlike the fruitcake my dady likes during Christmas time :)


I took quick pictures before the event as I knew there might not be opportunity later due to the excitement of the day. Ana is wearing her pretty dress she picked out for the special day.


One of the party favors at each table was a box to make hats. You can tell that many wedding hats were made for Ana to wear.


Andrew hanging out with 2 of the nephews Daniel and Chris.


Andrew with Sophie Broadhead (oldest grandchild of Uncle John) and Daniel. The coveted unopenned bottle of wine. Joe the groom is a bit of a wine lover...it's from all those years at Cambridge University :) He picked out some lovely wine for the reception.


Charlotte organized barn dancing for entertainment after the wedding reception. It's scottish dancing!


Here is Ana with her dancing Giles...Irish cousin that has the muscle and energy for carting around Ana on the dance floor.


Dancing is hard work. Chris, Andrew's oldest brother and his wife Aileen taking a break.


Even Granny had a turn around the barnyard dance floor with Peter Hickling (one of the grandkiddies).


My dancing partner!!! You can tell Ana is really happy....so is Giles.
