That's right folks. An impromptu night of freedom in order to see how the 3D people party meant that Jessica and Madeline spent last night and today with Grandma and Grandad. Therefore, I sit here... alone... in the peace and tranquility of a clean and tidy house.... a teeny weeny hangover (basically tired!) and all my jobs done. Whilst Nick, on the other hand, saunters his way up the M40 with a somewhat larger hangover, the hum of the motor and probably the screams from two daughters! Lucky me!

So the picture explains all really. We haven't done much over the last few weeks, hence inactivity on the website. Madeline no longer crawls anywhere, and is showing signs of a VERY strong desire to run! Grump. So £15 later, she is now "good to go" on (almost) all terrain!

Jessica's back at playschool so we have some very quiet mornings in which Madeline (and I) gets frustrated as the entertainment requires us doing something rather than just watching the whirling dervish which is Jessica! So basically back to normality..............

until Wednesday.

For those of you who don't know, Jessica will be THREE YEARS OLD on Wednesday 25th Jan. I for one am lost as to exactly where the time (and my baby, coincidentally) has gone? Answers on a postcard please.

Anyway, suffice to say the next blogging will NOT be 3 weeks, but days. I'm sure you wait with baited breath!
