Looks like our summer has returned as it is hot and sunny today and the forecast for the next few days is good. Unfortunately, due to some very wet and windy days and cold nights all our hanging baskets have suffered and are looking sorry for themselves but as we are nearly into Autumn we cannot complain.
I intended to expand my wooden duck family so we now have two new members - ducklings rather than adult ducks - called (what else)................................Nathan and Daniel.
They look good with our two original ducks:-
I was having a long conversation on the phone with Becky this morning. She told me that yesterday, Daniel was in his Moses basket and started to cry. Nathan went across to have a look. After watching him for about a minute, Nathan went and got a dummy and tried to put it into Daniel's mouth. How sweet is that!!!!! He is showing a lot of understanding for one so young.
I would like to take this moment to send good wishes to all those in the path of Hurricane Katrina, especially those who cannot leave due to varying circumstances and escape to higher ground. Please know that we are thinking of you here in England and of all of you who have relatives in the area. Hurricanes are very rare in the UK and we count ourselves lucky. I hope there will be few lives lost.
Bank Holiday here today so we shall be having a very quiet time. Hope you all have a good Monday.

I WANT MY DUCKY NO. 2!!!! I will get to the bottom of it (not the ducks one!) tomorrow when business is back to normal, otherwise they owe me some money!!!
Love your ducks Jeannette. Now, with Nathan and Daniel they are like a proper little duck family :o) Wondering if they do a Jason duck, but not wanting to look because if they do I will HAVE to have one, lol!!
Nathan is so cute, taking care of his little Brother already :o)

Oh dear I'm trying to remember my british terms, "dummy" is the same as our "pacifier" ?? I think, actually I call them "plugs" cause they plug up the mouth LOL

It looks like a real "ducky" family ! They are cute. I love the coloring of the wood. I've been known to call a pacifier "mug plug", the greatest thing since sliced bread. We had about a hundred of them when my son was a baby (Jools was such a sweet little baby, she didn't need one) they were in the house, the car, at grandma's house...everywhere we took that child.
Your ducks look like they're having a quacking time. Hope you had a good day.
