Widdle wed wagon



Today Reuben attended his cousin Aiden's 2nd birthday party. It involved an amazing amount of presents and lots of sugar laden food. Reuben was slightly overwhelmed. However, he did get to go for a ride in Aiden's little red wagon. Everything went well until he fell out at the last minute. The tears dried up as soon as he got to see his photo on my phone!

Strongman





The other day I bought Reuben some leggings to keep him warm during winter. I should have realised that being Bonds, they would be on the small size. He now wears them underneath other clothes as thermals to avoid possible embarrassment. With his blue singlet and muscle boy attitude, Reuben looks like the Strongman at the circus! He seemed to get the gag though. Funny old sausage.

A Big Boy goes shopping



Reuben has always been a great shopper and even loves to go grocery shopping. Usually we find a trolley with a baby seat in it, putting up with the grotty straps (which Reuben inevitably chews) and enduring a bumpy ride back to the car in which his poor cheeks wobble unmercifully.

On Tuesday we went to the shop only to find that all baby trolleys had been snaffled, so we decided to try the Big Boy Seat. This was met with elation by Reuben who was able to sit up and show off to all the old ladies in the store. He kept up his Big Boy attitude for most of the shop, however loud yawns were heard echoing down the coffee isle as the novelty started to wear off.

My little man is growing up so fast.
