Poor Elliot was up being sick at least every hour – certainly that’s what daddy recalls – I think mummy may well suggest it was more frequent than that 🙁

Apparently a sickness bug is going around nursery – oh joy of joys

Poor Elliot has been sick twice tonight – the4 first time he filled his bed and the second time we managed to get him to the bathroom, so he was sick on daddy and a little on himself.  The poor little mite is v sorry with himself, and will most likely sleep in mummy and daddy’s bed tonight.

Yesterday at nursery, Elliot took himself off to the toilet and participated in a number 2 delivery exercise.  It was all successful excepting that he has not yet been trained to wipe 🙁  Therefore huge skids were apparent in the underwear – I guess we need to get him on the course pretty soon.  We are also wondering why the nursery staff were not there to facilitate that particular job. 🙁

The toilet training is incredible really – Elliot is really impressing us in how quickly he has grabbed the issue and just dealt with it 🙂

So, the week is ALMOST over – we have been swimming this morning at grandma’s, we have played at home with the birthday toys – today we played with the “sandcastle” – this is Elliot speak for the castle and knights that came with it.

We went out for a Chinese meal with David, Julie and Abbie last night – Simon keeps wittering on about it being the best Chinese meal he has ever had – I guess that means we may well be going back there at some point downstream 🙂

We (following the trip to Edinburgh) ordered some replacement headrests for the estate car last week (they contain 9″ LCD screens and DVD players 🙂 ) and fitted them finally yesterday.  We also ordered a DVB-T digital TV tuner at a similar time, and this is also installed.  The headrests are an amazing colour match and the setup works really very well indeed.  And the great news – all in for £275 !!!!

Vicky has ripped into the conservatory over the last couple of days – it kind of points out just how many toys etc that the boys (read Elliot) have.  We need to really cut down, since there are a lot of things that we are now putting in the4 loft / skipping completely.  There is literally NO way Elly would even notice that they have gone.

Elly has really begun to get the hang of Mario Kart on the Wii now – only problem, he likes driving off cliffs and into water…. Not quite the right approach…..

Wishing you the very best day you could possibly have young man – all our love always and forever, mummy and daddy xxxxx
