      Heh, I’m not normally a fan of garish Xmas jumpers but they do look great on kids, don’t they?

      Totally! He’s so proud of it and he’s very conscious of using the limited time he has on it every day to its best effect. Sometimes we miss the mark with birthday/Xmas presents for the kids, but this one’s been a hit. 🙂

    A lovely shot of your three together – although the boys are very engrossed in the tablet whereas Kara looks much less interested in it

      I think she was throwing a bit of a strop because she wanted to get closer to it! And then she got distracted by something on TV over my shoulder …

      The jumper made a change from the usual topless, pants only running around!

      Bored with the boys’ antics, and distracted by something more interesting on the TV …

    Three kids on a sofa, one tablet and no argument? How did you pull that off Tim?

    Bless them! What a cute family photo 🙂 My younger son has the Dude onesie too. He loves it, he has literally worn it to bits (holes in knees)!

      Isaac too – he has a couple of holes but still insists on wearing it as much as he can.

      I hope so too. We’re mostly at home without too many commitments over the holiday, which means we can be more spontaneous and just have quiet days in if we want. Looking forward to the more leisurely pace!

      Thanks Merlinda. They do seem to enjoy it (when they’re not fighting over something else, that is!)

      Thanks Darren. It’s often a great way for them to pass some time on a dull, cold afternoon when they’re too tired to want to go out. I’m glad the Hudl has a time limiter on it though so it’s easier to ensure they don’t have too much screen time.

    A brief moment of peace in the world of children, Typical boys totally engrossed in the tablet whilst Kara’s thinking about what she can do next.

      They were! I do like how often the three of them play together – sometimes in twos and occasionally as a threesome.
