April 2005   Download times...
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.
