The Price-Knights visit with Omi

On the 27th and 28th Omi, Aunty Susanne, Ellie and Caitlin came to stay. Aunty Susanne gave us an excellent present of looking after Freddie for the night!

Of course they bought more presents too!

 

Freddie's First Christmas

 

Christmas at The Paddocks

Santa bought lots of lovely presents; Charlie got a new big bike, Lucy a swinging chair for her room, Sam loads of riding stuff and a trip to Badminton in the New Year, Millie got a Kitchen and Freddie had lots of clothes and cuddles. Mummy got an iPad and Daddy got fabulous River Cottage books

 
 
 
 

Scrubbed clean for Christmas!

Millie and Daddu help to get Freddie scrubbed for his first Christmas!

 

Freddie's home

After a short, purely precautionary stay in hospital Freddie came home today. Everyone very excited.

 

Freddie Knights!

Frederick Pelham Roy Knights (Freddie) was born on 12th December at 12:18 after only 2 1/2 hours of labour. We'd had a housefull of guests - Grandads John and David, Omi, Matthew, Roul, Sarah, Martin, Evie and Alex. Just after a full English breakfast Mummy went into labour and only 30 minutes later we decided to get Grandad John to drive us to hospital. Two hours after that Freddie was born!

 

Lucy's Partied out!

Lucy went to her first big concert; JLS at the O2 arena for Emma's birthday. They went on Thursday night. Friday was the 7's school disco and so come Saturday she was washed out!

 

Millie's 2!

We had lots of people round for Millie's 2nd Birthday; Grandads John and David, Omi, Mike, Annalies, Saskia, Freya, Vicky, Baz, Olivia, Charlie, Lucy and Sam.

 

Sammie's Christmas play

Sammie played Charles Dickens the narrator in the MKPS Christmas production of Oliver! Very very good.

Not so sure about the wellies

Cold snap continues into day 3 - this is because the baby's late and so the weather Gods want to make sure there's plenty of ice and snow when we have to go to hospital!

 
 
 

Bierton Fireworks

It was chucking it down for the Bierton Fireworks so only the daftest members of the family went out!

Ann, Lawrence and Daddy in a skirt!

On October 2nd Ann and Lawrence got married - Finally!

We had a great time and Mummy even got Daddy to wear a kilt! [I loved it!]

 
 

Menage needs work!

We're gonna have to clear the weeds before any horse riding gets done on the sand school!

 

The Paddocks

After a year of searching and two house purchases that fell through we finally bought The Paddocks - by far and away the best of the three! 5 beds and two acres of land on the out skirts of Aylesbury.


 
 
 

Lucy Starts Big School

 

Samantha's Suprise Party

On Saturday Samantha was packed of to a Mum's to Be day at Hartwell House. As soon as she'd gone the marquee went up and the bar-b-que was set. Lots of help for Stephen from the kids, Vicky & Baz and Ann & Lawrence. Samantha arrived back at 4:30 to a garden full of friends shouting 'Suprise!' and singing Happy Birthday!

Bar-b-que in the showers went down well as well a a yummy Carrot Cake
