I don't like sleeping in my bed at night, but having a nap on Mummy and Daddy's bed is nice.

In the starting blocks for the 100m.

Woodlouse under a log.


We had a visit from Joe

and Matt

But this brought up a tricky question, will the friends of Mummy and Daddy be known as auntie and uncle too or is that just for relatives? We could have asked Joe but he seemed a bit distracted.


It was lovely to see them, and before he left, Cousin Theo helped mum and dad with the washing!

The other day we received a letter from a member of our Russian family, my Second cousin, Lera.

Katherine has a translation for those of you who don't speak Russian. Sasha is the Russian version of Alex, and is close to the Scottish Sandy.

Dear Katya and Sasha,

Congratulations on the birth of your daughter Ninotchka.

Let her grow big, healthy, smart and makes her parents happy.

All the best to her,

Kisses,

Lera and all of your Russian Family

Search your feelings, you know it to be true

We received this letter from our family in Russia. See if you can work out what it says.
