So here we are once more. A new year has dawned and 2007 is upon us. It was my first day back at work yesterday. The train was eerily quiet. It seems a lot of people have had the very sensible idea of taking the rest of the week off. Christmas was fun but busy and involved lot’s of driving to and fro and hither and thither. I had to work the last few days of the Christmas week which was a struggle but at least I had the luxury of working from home.
Jake enjoyed his Christmas immensely and although he didn’t understand what was going on, he delighted in meeting lot’s of people and playing with his new toys. On Christmas day we dressed him in a fluffy reindeer sleepsuit. Initially I protested that it was an affront to his human rights. However once I saw the cuteness that was the Jakles in said sleepsuit, all of that went out of the window!
Jake has been poorly all over Christmas. This one really has taken hold. He has been snuffly and congested. Yesterday he refused his food and today is only drinking a little of his milk. I suspect he has a sore throat now as well. The teething doesn’t seem to bother him so much now. He cut his fourth peg last week. It was only when he was laughing while being held upside down that we saw the elusive peg.
The house is getting there slowly. A new shower pump has been installed, the Ikea wardrobes are up. Today a man is coming to install a new extension point for the TV in the bedroom. Also the PC is up and running in the spare room with a surprisingly good signals seeing as the router is downstairs in the lounge.
