They really enjoyed experimenting with mixing colours and I think Xander enjoyed it the most as it was all new to him in a sense, and he loved making purple with his red and blue.

Another thing that happened this week is Xander and myself had a bit of experimenting with Daddy's photography camera :) we ended up getting so many cute photo's :) here is one:

This was my favourite..

And last but not least my activity for helping improve motor skills. It's not something to do all the time, but it worked and got Xander's little fingers working!

At the start of the year Xander hadn't come very far in his speech. He could only really say Daddy, Mummy, Emma, Boots and Butters (our gorgeous cats) since then his speech has improved dramatically and now we are just working on his fine motor skills.

I got Xander in the garden yesterday and he loved it. I started with bean seeds as they were easier for  him to pick up and count as he was putting them into a pot. But we got to the smaller seeds (broccoli and carrot) and it was harder for him to pick up which got his hand eye co-ordination really working! 

He eventually got there and at dinner time I noticed a small improvement in his usage of his fork! So here is Xander is the garden:
