Thankfully, being sick for the twins hasn't meant that they've lost their sense of humour and their ability to play. These were shot yesterday amidst the running noses, teary eyes and chesty coughs.

It is photos like these that cause the older generation to "tsk-tsk" at us when we buy them toys. Obviously, they don't need toys. They play with anything and everything. This time, anything being the laundry basket and the basin in which their clothes are soaked in. I wish I could have brought them walking but the La Nina front has caused that to be a little bit difficult.
So while Aunty D is folding the clothes, they entertain themselves. It doesn't last for long but it's still something and it's extremely funny to see how they discover their surroundings and how they learn; Evan clipped his fingers because he'd got them underneath the handle and his other hand pushed the handle down on his fingers. There was much loud yowling but he became very careful after that. They also looked pretty much like they were adrift from shore and trying to either pick up their oars or to paddle with their hands.



















Baby J in the tub is just funny. I feel like I need to go "Rub-a-dub-dub, Baby J's in a tub"



























And Evan's just got the most contented expressed chewing on an empty juice bottle. If you look very carefully you can see how wet and drippy his nose is. I wish they'd get well though. It's exhausting for us because their sleep's pretty disturbed and that automatically means so is mine. But when I look at these photos, it's pretty much a Mastercard ad and for a split second, I forget how frustrated and overwhelmed I feel.
