We really do have 3 boys. Roo is now joining in, imposing himself, unable to ignore. Here he is splashing in puddles with his cousin Zach in Regent's park.
Yesterday at Sam and Becca's, Eddie and Seb were having some sort of physical conflict over a spade and some spilt sand, and Roo got up from his little part of the garden, and came up behind Eddie to strike him (fairly harmlessly) with his own spade.
Last night, Sebi charged into the kitchen exclaiming "Eddie hit a seven", and Eddie followed up to tell how he'd hit the ball out of the living room in one clean hit. Playing Cricket had been Seb's idea, but Eddie had it how he wanted, with Sebi bowling and Eddie batting on and on. After those two got in the bath, Roo had me batting while he threw the ball repeatedly. We need that garden.
