Another week!

Well, that's another week under my belt!!  Andrew has been very cute today, although he is loaded with cold and has a continual snot trail from his nose he has been a very happy little boy indeed!!  even first thing this morning he was bouncing around the front room as happy as can be!  Mum and dad have got some glass coasters in their front room, the special thing about these coasters is that they have a space where you can slot in photographs of anything you like.  Obviously being the doting grandparents that they are they have chosen to put photo's of family in them.  Andrew picked one up today (which is unusual that I let him hold it for longer than 2 seconds as his usual trick is to try and launch them across the room - much to my fathers horror as he seems to be aiming for the television! which he has already damaged by throwing something at the plasma screen!)  anyway he picked up the coaster and brought it over to me and was pointing at the people in the photograph - which was him, me, Hannah and my dad (affectionately called dad dad by both Andrew and Hannah!)  so as he pointed to each person I was telling him who they were which managed to keep him amused for a good 5 minutes - he even started trying to say Hannah - it came out as annah and nana but who's being picky????  dad dad is easy for him to say, Andrew a bit harder so he didn't even try and strangely enough he wouldn't say mum although he seems to love shouting it as loud as he can at 6.30am in the morning when I'm trying to sleep and he doesn't want me to! I love both of my children to bits, they give me that warm gooey feeling inside!

Not particularly looking forward to tomorrow to be honest, its Gillian's mums funeral.  I'm going along as I want to be there for Gill,  her mum was such a lovely person its the least I can do to pay my respects.  I hope Gill's alright - obviously I know she's not - I just hope she realises that she is surrounded by many friends who all love her and want to help her get through this horrible time of her life.

Onto brighter things, I've just come back from my first divisional meeting of the Brownies!!! what fun!! (not!)  actually it was interesting and I got to know a few more faces, I'm definitely one of the younger ones there, but I seriously think we need Gok to come down and sort some of these leaders out!!! my god, no wonder nobody gets involved in leadership if they think we all look like that, 1980's throwbacks and just no style idea at all for some of the others.  I'm not saying I'm fantastic but at least I think I know how to look smart!  Not as dynamic as I thought it would be either!  maybe I'm just too full of ideas but managed to reign myself in so I don't get involved with organising anything, especially not yet!  I'll just concentrate on my pack and go from there!

Anyway, time is getting on, will be back soon xxxx
