Ramblings


"Oh Grandma, what big teeth you have ...


Elliot hasn't quite got the hang of reading, but he'll learn!

Just a few recent pics of the boys. Obviously they are thriving, and William has just got over the nasty virus what knocked him out for a few days. Unfortunately, Mum also got the same nasty virus. She spent a few days in bed, and only just beginning to feel better. She said that she really hopes I never get it.

Ramblings

A few weeks since I blogged. Everything is going fairly Ok in Jane's world. My niece is settling into work two and a half days a week, Elliot is enjoying nursery with his big brother two days a week and their Daddy is home for a few weeks too. There seems to be a bug flying around, as William has been off colour since Tuesday. He's just been lying on the couch, and hardly moving. Of course they pick up all the bugs at nursery, but this has totally wiped William out. He's only just beginning to move about and play a little bit, and that definately isn't William. He also isn't eating, so here's hoping he picks up in the next few days. He's been kept off nursery, but Elliot has been going. We only hope little Elliot doesn't get the same bug .... :(

Happy Birthday, best friend!!



Mum is celebrating her 70th birthday today, although she has had "two birthdays" this year! Me and Mum were invited to go next door, on Saturday, for dinner, with my sister and my brother in law, my two nieces and the boys too. We usually do this at Christmas etc, so it was going to be lovely.
About half an hour before we went in, my sister told me that she had arranged three of Mum's brothers and three of her sisters to be next door to celebrate with us too (and of course, their wifes and husbands too!) so me and my nieces were told to keep Mum away from the window, while everyone arrived. By the time we went next door, everyone was in, and ready. When Mum opened the door, she was totally shocked.
The ages ranged from 87 (Mum's eldest sister) to 7 months (obviously Elliot!) and it was really lovely. My sister, brother-in-law, one of my nieces and the boys will be calling in tonight, and probably a few other guests too. I can't think of anyone who deserves a nicer day. Happy Birthday Mum xxxx
