wonder who's getting the lecture from Hugh?

hugh and the bean sprouts

Hugh's the giant compared to these worm-like sprouts and he certainly enjoyed splattering them all over the floor.

it's alva's birthday

Today we're attending Alva's 6th birthday party in Sharjah.

Hugh's all dressed up and leaving the apartment...


He's doing his driving to Sharjah as well...

Alva trying very hard to get a perfect picture taken...

Hugh's surprisingly tolerant of the novelty hat...

cookie's good after swim

Daddy left for UK today so it's just Mummy and boy at the club pool. We spent more than 2 hrs there and it's no wonder somebody's grabbing a snack after the swim.

how cool am i?

ballet?

Doesn't he look like he's doing the ballet?

snapshots at Galler

I need a toothpick!

Yes, the chocolate was yummy.

Gimme more!

Ok, I'm outta here!

chuckling like chicken

didgeridoo from dubai

Hugh has found his very own didgeridoo... not quite the same as the ones we saw in Sydney but it'll suffice... for now.

rocking away

hitting the courts soon

Checking the tension of the strings.

driving a big red car

He's found his own toot toot chugga chugga.

yum...mango cream!

typical day at home

Now that the toddler is roaming around the house, he amuses himself with "toys" like these. If Mummy doesn't allow him to play with them...


... this is what you see.

a little taste

Not sure if he likes the taste itself or the novelty of licking Mummy's finger.

both on the phone

This is a fun game for Hugh.

First, Daniel feeds him some cake...
