Bank Holiday Monday fun!
Ian enjoyed the slide at Richard and Clare's house on Monday. I guess Dad needs to get one of those too now given the fun-factor Ian had!

Sunshine At Last in England!
The rain finally stopped and Ian was able to enjoy time out in the sun. An afternoon with family allowed Ian to play with his Cousins (you can see him holding court with them under the trampoline!) as well as playing the fool with a toy arrow suctioned to his forehead (thanks to Russell!). Ian also spent the day at Hatfield House and ran his little feet off charging around the gardens there.

He's Walking!
No photos to share we're afraid but a quick update to tel you that Ian is walking now! Dad has missed this landmark occasion since he's in Thailand while Mom and Ian touched down in London only today, direct from the US. Dad gets to see Ian's wobbly footsteps when he gets back to the UK on Saturday Aug 19th. That is also the date when photo updates on our Blog Superstar will recommence, so tune back then to see many of Ian's summer antics.

Over the last few weeks Dad has been settling into his new job in Bangkok while Mom has been preparing for her trip to the UK then ultimately onto Thailand. Mom also became a US Citizen last week to complete the All-American family picture. Well done Mom!

We hope you are enjoying your summer as much as we will be when the are all reunited again (13 days an counting!).

Cheers!
The Prebbles
