Winter blues

Poor wee Joe's not too well at the moment. He has a rattling cough, a runny nose that he wipes all over his face which means that he also has conjunctivitis (sp?) None of which has affected his appetite or sleeping I might add (just like his father!) but it meant that we missed our NCT Christmas lunch but there's always next year. Hopefully he'll be well enough to go to Tiny Teds on Thursday and round to Jane's on Friday.

Thank you to everyone who sent Christmas presents for Joe, you're very kind. He'll love the wrapping paper! This year we have Conor's girlfriend Liz joining us for Christmas (should we start saving up for hats?) so hopefully we won't put her off.
Mum arrives tomorrow and Simon is picking her up from the airport. She's staying until the 27th. We put our tree up on Sunday and Joe has so far managed to not get his mitts on any baubles.
