  • Back Again

    Yes indeed, back again. While baby Rhys has a kip and Mother watches the Big Brother dross, I can get a few minutes to give you a catch up.
    I'm off work tomorrow, yipee!!!!
    Uncle Philo is in New Zealand with work and is experiencing a 'different' place were people are 'nice'. Apparently they even say 'thanks' to the bus driver, I've always done that anyway. Oh, and the door man at a club called someone 'a silly Billy'. What a crazy, crazy place!
    Phil will no doubt be steaming drunk throughout his trip. Different part of the world, same Uncle Philo.

    Well, our Rhys has been having a whale of a time. He's got loads of new tricks, throwing himself off the sofa isn't our favourite though. Fortunately he is OK after a visit to A&E for kids.
    We've got him a bouncey thing and a hoop thing. Both have 10 minute entertainment time then it's boring. I'd love one of those bouncey things, do they do them in adult sizes?

    He's getting big now, 18lbs and 15oz this week. He's just getting ready to crawl, he's great at pushing with his legs and feet but he just can't move his arms under himself. His right arm is getting better at moving under his weight, a few more weeks yet we think though.

    Em's friend Joanne has had a baby yesterday, a lovely little girl. Congrat's to you and Neil, we're really pleased for you.

    Right, me off to enjoy the longest day of the year. I'm on night duty so I hope it's not the longest night of the year. Come on Rhysy, let your Da get some kip tonight hey boyo!!!!

    See ya all soon.....

  • Week Long Hangover

    It's definitely true, the older you get the longer it takes to shake a hangover off. I mean, it's been a week now and I still feel rough. This time last week was Brad and Vicky's wedding. We had a fantastic day and Em's Mum & Dad even brought Rhys down to see us early in the evening. We were missing him and it was good for some of our pals to meet him who hadn't already.

    So after a top wedding, one or two shandy's and a good nights sleep (til 11am!!!!) it was time to face the world. Saturday was a right off, Rhys was great all day fortunately. Betty & Rob had taken good care of him at ours over night and he wasn't too demanding all day Saturday. Em & I had a good chance to rest and recover from a busy week preparing for the wedding. Oh, and the few drinks we had.

    We were late for the wedding but thankfully Vicky was even more late. We even bought a sat' nav' to get us there on time. We had Jason Donovan telling us to turn right on the motorway which kind of give us the impression that he didn't know his way there either. Woolton isn't a good place to get lost. We got there in the end though, sat' nav' back in its box.

    So how's Rhys doing?
    He's getting a bit narky these days. He must be close to getting his first tooth now. He is becoming more and more active every day. The speed that he grabs things and puts them in his mouth is amazing. He's always on the lookout to grab something. Even when he's being walked around the house he's trying to grab doors and handles. He loves playing on the computer and whacks the keyboard while I'm typing away. He is asleep at the moment after playing in the garden with me earlier, here he is....
    Afternoon Nap
    So Rhys is going to have another pal soon. Em's friend Joanne is due soon. It was her baby shower on Sunday and we're all looking forward to another baby joining Rhys's long list of future buddies.
    Thuesday was Ryan's birthday, 8 years old and growing up very quickly. We all went to the pub for dinner and I had my first pint since Friday. It didn't go down well and I haven't had one since. I've got the sore throat from hell and it aint going anywhere. Happy Birthday Ryan, all the best wishes!
    Eats Anything
    Right we're off out to get a new newspaper, catch you all later....
