Lily in Pictures

Here are a few photos of Lily Catarina, lovelier and feistier than ever. This was taken on holiday at the Karnatakan coast when she'd wander around with my old head scarf wrapped around her and Andy and I jokingly called her the wild child because of her untameable hair.


Lily loved the freedom of the beach. She spent ages padding around in the sand moving shells from one place to another. And then moving them back again.

Because Lily spends time in the mornings with Deepa, she seems to genuinely enjoy sweeping and can often be found with the brush in her hand. Here she is wearing a shirt of Maya's which her big sister refuses to wear (like most other clothes!), so I've turned it into a dress for Lily.



Here's Lily back in England when her hair went a little static after some trampoline bouncing at Uncle Leo's.

Fresh and clean after bath time at Auntie Louisa and Uncle Nick's house and ready for more action. Lily has an endless well of energy, smiles and waves.


Back in Bangalore, she's still too little to object to her Mama dressing her up so I'm making the most of it while it lasts!

This afternoon at the park, a look of surprise as Maya spins her round this creaky old thing.


Lily is adventurous and brave and wants to try everything out, especially if her sister is doing something. Here she is about to have a swing on the rope.
