One year on

 Remember this little (okay, not very little, but RELATIVELY little) baby?

This time last year, just as it was starting to get cold, I got some pictures of Tom about to take Ben out on a dogwalk. At that point, 3 1/2 months old, Ben had an unfeasibly large head and so I gave up buying baby hats and bought some for a toddler, which were then ridiculously large, and really rather cute

This morning I realised, on the first day that it was cold enough for hats and gloves and scarves, that Ben was still wearing the same hat.

 Now he just looks like a lumberjack!  This effect is even more enhanced when he's in his dungarees:

Where did this great big boy come from? Walking with the occasional trip (just like his Mum), jabbering away in nonsensical talk (just like Dad) and now climbing onto big chairs and sitting in them with squeals of accomplishment. There's no stopping him!
