A Day Out

Friday, February 27th, 2009

So we are in between nurseries at the moment, which means both kids were free today. We decided to try a trip into town, with the help of Bedstemor. The night hadn’t been a good one for me. I had been out with toddler group mums, and a few glasses of wine, but [...]

Chest pest

Wednesday, February 18th, 2009

Just to report the findings of the GP this morning. I like this GP - he’s my favourite at the moment, called Dr Copland. He saw Thomas’ scar first, and said it was very unusual, and did look like an infected chicken pox scar. Though, as Thomas only had one spot, which [...]

Another hair-cut

Thursday, February 12th, 2009

So Ollie’s hair was getting too long, and I know he won’t sit still for a haircut – if my friend who is a qualified hairdresser, couldn’t manage it with a packet of white chocolate buttons at the ready, then I’m sure he wouldn’t sit for a complete stranger. So, I got all ready: [...]

The other morning just before lunch, Thomas asked me to put some music on. I really couldn’t be bothered (great mum, me) so I told him to just listen to some music in his head as it was nearly lunch time. He turned round and said, angrily, “I’m not a teenager, mum! I [...]

Cardia

Wednesday, February 4th, 2009

So I went to see a cardiologist yesterday.

I do indeed have some sort of SVT - supraventricular tachycardia. I’ll post the trace when I get it scanned.

The chap said I had 3 options. First, I can take some medication every day. Some people get a pill they can take just when [...]

more ollie speech

Monday, February 2nd, 2009

I just wanted to add, that while I was rolling the snowball to make the snowman (and working up quite a sweat, I can tell you!) Ollie kept coming up to me and saying “Wha ou doin? Wha’ ou doin mummay?”

Snow business…

Monday, February 2nd, 2009

Playgroup was cancelled this morning, and we decided not to brave the walk to toddler group, but we found other ways to amuse ourselves…

Then some girls from around the corner rolled their snowball into our garden so we could build this:
