Photo exhibition of AJ & His dearest Lin-chan




























Indoor trains

There are a few strange things we get up to in the Henington household; sure that others find themselves doing similar - all in the name of family fun!.... Well we hope so.
Here's John and AJ playing trains・mmm doesn't look like the real thing does it? This was actually AJ's main Christmas present from us (well he doesn't know) and is a 10pounds plastic goal post set which gets more use as a train as you can see or a utensil for chasing John around when he plays with the football..

A word or two

Archie is a pretty easy going chap most of the time and doesn't seem to get phased with many things- this includes having strange parents. However put a camera in front of him and he either tried to stick his finger in the lens, want to see photos of himself or become a little camera shy. Sometimes though, just sometimes we manage to get a good run out of him. Here he is reciting a few (prompted) words-Oishi means delicious if you couldn't work that out and Pops is the name of his (Henington) Granddad just in case anyone wondered!?

Yokohama

Last weekend we had another trip to Yokohama to find somewhere to live. With Archie in tow it was always going to be interesting. On the first night whilst Dad was using the computer Archie grabbed the (almost) boiling kettle and provoked a panic response from Dad and all the contents went all over Archie but luckily most went on Dad . As the water wasn’t quite boiling, by the time it had been thrown in the air and come down again a lot of the heat had been lost- No serious injuries. I’m sure there is a scientific experiment in there somewhere!! Latent heat.. .mumble mumble….boyles law blah blah.


Of course a more normal use of time in hotels is to pilfer the cosmetics and/or try as many things as possible- can you get the mystery user of the face pack....
Sleeping in the same room as Archie means from 8pm onwards we have to whisper and walk round the room as quietly as possible.
