Still around!

I really should concentrate on updating this blog more!
Nearly the end of Fenruary. All is as well as can be expected in "Jane's world", though both me and Mum have suffered from a cold. Mum has also been troubled, for about six months, with pains in his arm and her knee. After various blood tests and various visits to the Doctor, she's been diagnosed with osteoarthrist (And I know thats a rubbish spelling!) The best she can do is to lose some weight (not easy to do!) and take painkillers, and do exercises.
Mum will be celebrating her 70th birthday this coming Tuesday. I am so so blessed to have such a wonderful set of parents. We are going to my sister's for a pre-birthday meal today (because it is the only time my niece can get home) and we'll probably have a little celebration on her "official" birthday too.
My other niece (the boys Mum) will be starting work part time next week, so the boys will go to nursery two days a week. Elliot went for a check up after his scare with menegitis in September, two weeks ago. All seems fine, although they want to give him a brain scan, to check it out, as his head is a little large. However, Mum, my sister, and the boy's Mum have large heads, so we're not overly concerned. Obviously, when he has had the scan, I shall update the blog :-)
Elliot is coming on with leaps and bounds. He's seven months old now, and very very nearly crawling. William never fails to brighten up my days, when he comes to see me and Mum. He's 22 months old now (hard to believe!) and is saying all sorts of different things!
