last few weeks

We have had a very busy few weeks. Alfie decided to get ill just before Christmas and he and mummy took a ride in the ambulance to hospital. We spent a night there and were let out on Christmas Eve night. So we had a Christmas morning at home in Bristol and then travelled up to North Wales for lunch with the rest of the family. Alfie by this time having made a swift recovery. So much so that Johanna and I got to spend a couple of nights away in Chester and we left Alfie with his grandparents and uncle and aunt.

it was very cold, but we did get out every now and then and look for trolls under various bridges around plas Nantglyn. alfie also helped Grandma do some cooking and did some reading and watching TV with Edie and Henry.

Christmas and new Year were very relaxing and it has been back to a lot of work since then. I am now a tenant at my Chambers which is good news and means we can start thinking about buying a house in Bristol. We have seen 7 or 8 already and are beginnning to get an idea of what we would like. Alfie has a new bed and has settled into very nicely, he has not realised that he can get out and into our room yet which is good. He is refusing to have anything to do with the potty or toilet and is quite happy in nappies.
