I get knocked down.

May 30, 2011 by

Grampty brought Egyptian dressing up clothes when he arrived yesterday. Mummy is still loving the hipstamatic iPhone app she downloaded. The result is a very gorgeous pair of photos of Josie. She also took this photo. It isn’t a brilliant one of Max but it is an unusually good one of me.
