We've been making the best of some chilly weather and Natalie even braved the freezing conditions to make Kasper his first snowman.

Hi folks
A while since our last post, so apologies.
We've been making the best of some chilly weather and Natalie even braved the freezing conditions to make Kasper his first snowman.
We sent this picture to the local paper, but they were having none of it. If only we knew someone who worked there...

Don't sweat it
Hello again,
Kasper looks super cool in his new clothes which he got for his birthday, here he is modeling an especially nice sweatshirt from Grandma Jennie while having fun on his special car with Daddy.
Love, Natalie

Lunch
Kasper just loves his food and Daddy recently treated mummy and him to Sunday lunch out where he ate a lovely roast and some chocolate pudding, thanks Daddy!
Wrap up
Hi there,
The cold weather has certainly arrived but Kasper is lovely and snug in a couple of new coats recently bought for him, what a lucky boy!

Top gifts
Hello,
Aside from the halloween outfits, perhaps Kasper's most scary piece of clothing of all is the Aston Villa strip bought for him by his Uncle Andrew! Kasper seems to like it though! He is also loving his wooden caterpillar, walker, Thomas the Tank Engine and new books and clothes!

Halloween's coming!
Hi there,
There was no escaping the halloween theme for Kasper's birthday part, but as you can see, he got into the spirit of it!

Present and correct
Hello again,
Kasper had no problem at all ripping into his presents, bodes well for Christmas when I am sure there are more gifts to come as he is such a good boy. Here are some snaps of him tackling a couple on his birthday.

Happy Days
Hello,
Well, there has only really been one big event of the last few weeks and that was Kasper's very first birthday. We all had a lovely time and Kasper was lucky enough to receive lots of lovely cards and presents from all his friends and family. Here is a rare snap of the three McMaths together on the big day.

Hi there,
Kasper's new found mobility has made it harder to capture him in action, here he is disappearing into the distance!

Toy story
Hello again,
Kasper is growing up fast and he is too big for some of his old favourites like the Jumperoo now so before it was even his birthday, mummy and daddy treated him to a digger which he loves zipping up and down the floor!

Let him eat cake
Hi again,
After Daddy's birthday, Kasper got the chance to practice eating cake ahead of his own celebrations in October. As you can see, he took to it well, eating every last crumb!

Birthday Boys
Hi everyone,
Long time since our last update on the blog so hope you are all well. I wanted to start with a picture of Kasper from Daddy's 30th birthday party back in September. We have posted lots of snaps on our Flickr page but just wanted to highlight this lovely one of Kasper, captured by Steve.

Point
Hi there,
One of Kasper's latest tricks is to point things out, anything and everything goes. Here he is doing just that although Daddy reckons he is saying 'You ain't seen me, right?'!

Two front teeth
Hello again,
Kasper's two front bottom teeth have recently come through and he loves nothing more than to show them off with a lovely big grin! Here he is demonstrating just that!

Chocs Away
Hello again,
Kasper is still really enjoying his food, here he is sampling his first taste of chocolate! I think he is watching Daddy closely to make sure he gets it all out of the jar!

Portrait
Hi again,
Just watched a really inspirational programme about a portrait photographer (Channel Five, How to take stunning pictures) and thought Daddy had captured Mummy and Kasper rather nicely in this one!

Kasper Kiss
Hello,
Taking inspiration from Kasper's interest in hairstyling, mummy went off to get her own locks chopped recently. Here is Kasper giving the new look his seal of approval with a kiss.

Mango
Hi everyone,
Well, we've had a busy few weeks what with James's 30th birthday so standby for mega updates! Kasper is full of fun at the moment and is keeping us amused with his new tricks each week. His hair is continuing to grow upwards and the other day he started to play with it while eating his dinner and styled it in an even more mad manner using bits of mango rice pudding. What do you think?

Treats
Hi there,
We've treated Kasper to a couple of new toys lately, a xylophone and a set of cups which can be stacked up and are great for playing with in the bath. Here he is playing with both.

Front Crawl
Hello again,
Kasper is well and truly away with his crawling now. I have tried to capture him in action on camera but he moves so quickly, I can't really do him justice. Here is my attempt.

Hello again,
We've just enjoyed a visit from Auntie Fran and we took the opportunity to go to Beverley Races. We had a lovely day but it started off with a lot of rain (see photo) before the sun came out. Here is a pic of Kasper, Daddy and Frances making their selections!

Hi everyone,
Well, the football season it back in full swing and with Daddy back covering matches, Kasper has been getting more into the beautiful game as you can see from this picture. It won't be long before we will be able to take him to his first match!

Party
Hi everyone,
We're heading over to Beverley Races today so will post some pics of our big day out later this week. In the meantime, we are really looking forward to seeing you all at Daddy's 30th soon. A few people have been asking for present ideas and I have finally managed to get him to come up with some, ranging is price from £5 to £500! Hope this helps.
Hair product - American Crew Fiber (oooh, get you!)
Amazon vouchers (he wants to choose himself a new razor and some boring dvds) (easy!!)
Flip video camera
A nice white shirt (he likes Ted Baker Endurance in particular or Calvin Klein)(Posh!!)
Ties (again, Ted Baker would be a hit)
Shirts (See Ted!)
Apple Mac (Good luck with that!!)
New in-ear headphones for ipod (so he doesn't have to listen to wife and baby)
Fred Perry polo t-shirts (doesn't like the ones without a collar, fussy)
Fred Perry v-neck jumpers (as per Gavin from Gavin and Stacey)
Vouchers for a massage at Sessions Spa in Beverley (yes, really)
New guitar (wife not keen)
John Lewis Joanna Oak Floor Lamp (this is sounding like a wedding list now)(mega expensive!!)
New dictaphone (or amazon vouchers towards)
Socks (he likes jeff banks from matalan but any would be fine)
Wine (red!!)
Ale
Anyway, these are just ideas and he honestly doesn't really want anything apart from a lovely party which you will all be giving him by just turning up. Your presence, not presents is all that is required!

Give me ten
Hi again,
Kasper is really making good progress towards crawling. His latest trick is to lift himself on to his hands and knees before balancing on his toes as if he is doing press ups! Here are some pictures of him in action.

Paddle
Hello again,
Kasper enjoyed a visit from his relatives from the Midlands recently and they brought a brilliant present for him - his very own paddling pool! He loved it. Here is a picture of him enjoying a splash around. Daddy is wearing safety glasses in case of getting water in his eyes.

House of love
Hello,
The weather has been great so far this summer but it can be hard to know what Kasper should wear as some times it has been sunny but cool which means he needs a jacket and a hat but other times it has been so hot only a nappy is needed! Daddy said mummy had dressed him a bit like a member of East 17 on one occasion. Judge for yourselves.

Pool party
Hello,
We started taking Kasper swimming recently as he really enjoys bath time and he loved it! He was really confident splashing around and liked watching the other children play too. We haven't got any snaps of him at the leisure centre but here is one of him in the bath with Daddy (not pictured).

Hi everyone,
We enjoyed a few days out when Daddy was off work, including a visit to Honeysuckle Farm where they make Kasper's favourite ice cream. He loved looking at the animals, especially the horses. Not sure about the pigs though, bit smelly. Here are a couple of snaps.

On the ball
Hi everyone,
Well, it's been a long time since my last post so get ready for a raft of updates! We've been having a lovely time in the hot weather especially when Daddy was on holiday so no chance to sit in front of the computer. We did spend some time sitting in front of the television only to be disappointed by England in the World Cup but the event seemed to encourage Kasper to enjoy the beautiful game! He was a little frightened of playing with the football Auntie Fran bought him at first but he loves it now. Here you can see him checking whether it meets Fifa regulations.

Splashing time
Hi everyone
Sorry it's been a while since our last post.
We're currently eagerly awaiting the World Cup final after a busy weekend hosting special guests from the Midlands.
Great grandad Brian, grandad Bob and grandma Jill came to visit and one of the gifts they brought for Kasper proved a big hit.
Hot on the heels of his first visit to the local swimming baths, Kasper really enjoyed splashing around in the paddling pool in the back garden - just check out the pictures.
Lots of love
James and Natalie
