Back Home

Christmas has been a bit crazy this year. Lots of visiting family and friends. Jacob has had a brilliant time. It's his 2nd Christmas so is much more aware of things going on. He quite enjoyed unwrapping presents to a point. He is defnitely impressed with his new toys. We had Christmas dinner with my parents, they have bought Jacob a rocking snail called Stanley. Not quite sure where we are going to put him! We stayed over with mum and dad. They have celebrated 28 Christmasses in that house, I can't quite believe they are moving out at the end of January. Who knows where we will all gather next year. We got home on Boxing Day afternoon. It was then a quick turnaround and off to catch up with the Huttons on the 27th. We stayed there for a couple of days. The boys went to watch the football (Southend v MK Dons) and the girls stayed in the warm.

We took this photo (and about a million others) this morning before we left. If only we could get all of them to look at the camera at the same time!
On the way home we popped in to see the Abbots. This photo was more problematic, because Jacob wouldn't sit still so Mike had to be in it as well.

So, now we're home. Jacob is in bed, fingers crossed until about 8am! Got a couple of days to do some relaxing and then New Year shall be upon us.
