December Update

Wow, it's been almost a month since I last wrote anything here, and what a month!

In the past few weeks I've been to hospital and had my surgery, now on the final few miles of my road to recovery I hope. Finlay has taken his first trip out of Lincoln and also had his first mild illness, a little tummy bug. We've also been geting ready for Christmas to descend so the office now sports an enormous pile of presents of all shapes and sizes!

The final few weeks of the year are set to be rather hectic too, starting this Friday when my mum is coming to stay. We are hoping to visit the local school's Christmas fair and introduce Finlay to Santa before heading to the huge and historic Lincoln Christmas Market. The next day we're setting off to Stoke for a family get together where Fin will finally meet his Great Aunt Elaine.

The following weekend is the NCT meal with the other parents from our birth classes and their wee ones - all of whom are doing really well as we saw them on Monday at the class reunion. That day is also our nephew Will's 3rd birthday celebration at his house. Just a few days later is the hospital finance department meal which I'm looking forward to as I haven't seen a lot of people for quite some time. I'm especially looking forward to seeing Paul and Rachel as they'll be getting married just a few days before, much to all our shock as they only told everyone this week! Finally that week I'm off to Manchester for Depeche Mode at the MEN Arena on Merran's birthday!

So much to do before Christmas, plus cards to write and presents to wrap! Best not linger too long here then!
