This month we've taken so many nice
pictures of the boys that I'm able to fill a page before we are even
into May... There have been a lot of nice weekend gatherings as the
weather improves. This month saw the onset of Spring with a pleasant
change in the weather, and we even managed our first BBQ of the year.
The boys are growing up quickly and looking forward to the arrival
of their new brother or sister in August. |

Please note that in order to present large, high-quality pictures, this page may take
almost a minute to download completely. |

On a leisurely Sunday afternoon with Mark & Anna Weinel... after
lunch the boys played together happily - Raffy, Monty, Morgan and
baby Max. |

Monty enjoys a drink of lemonade, but only out of the best lead crystal,
of course... |
|

On the swing in the garden - Raffy and Morgan decide they are on a
spaceship flying to Mars. |

Monty collars Raffy and Morgan exuberantly. |

Monty joins Raffy and Morgan on the spaceship. Off to Jupiter...
| |

The boys playing peacefully in Morgan's sandpit... |

A nice picture of Max - Anna had asked me if I would take some pictures
of him while he was still very little, having seen the ones I took
of Christian a few weeks earlier. Fortunately they are both very photogenic
young men so it was not hard to get some good pictures! |

Rafferty holds forth at the dinner table. |

Monty found baby Max fascinating, and was very gentle when playing
with him.

Eating pizza at Anne-Marie's house one Saturday lunchtime... |

Nathan came to visit one Saturday night in early April for a few beers
at our local pub. On Sunday morning he was mobbed by his two godsons
who love their uncle Nathan very much...
| |

Monty eats his lunch at the top of the slide in our back garden. |

The boys invent cruel and unusual forms of torture for uncle Nathan...
It's lucky they are too young to understand how to apply electrodes!
|

A beautiful sunny weekend in the garden... Raffy manages to look mean
and moody...
|

...and then completely blows the effect by reverting to his normal
demeanour.
| |

Monty enjoys an ice-lolly without making any mess at all... |

A happy afternoon in the garden. Monty tries to go fishing in our
(soon to be removed) garden pond and Raffy pretends he is a statue.
|

A very serious young man.
|

Raffy gives his friend Emily a cuddle after they stopped round for
a the first barbeque of the year in late April.
|

After a long day's running around, Raffy falls asleep on the sofa.
