The Mumps update:
Lil’ One’s Mumps have come a loooong way since I’ve picked him up from his mum’s on Tuesday
Mum was supposed to be having him but after Me n Hales talked and realised that as she was at a loose end all week once she had finished her assignment it would make more sense for me to drive 30 minutes to get him and him spend the week at hers in the peace and quiet than for Mum to drive 2hrs to pick him up and then have his noisy cousin around him!
He went from generally laying down all day feeling sorry for himself (and with all reason poor little thing) to finally eating solids, chasing cats and even going for the eventual walkies around Hayley’s place (generally pushing around a car that is two times his size). The swelling seems to be getting smaller, he’s been having less fever and his appetite is back so SCORE!
But the best part of it all is that I get to see him every day this week for a few hours as I’ve been all over the place in my desperate search for full time employment…
So Hales gets to have most of the fun, although she has said he is sleeping alot and seems to need that but he’s been good for her overnight. She does seem to be his favourite person in the world at the moment, so I don’t mind… At least I get big cuddles too! 
J seems to have been having fun as well as he and LO were giggling away at the table yesterday after dinner blowing raspberries and eating (AKA throwing all over the dinner table) apples.
Tomorrow TB will join us after school for a sleepover before going to vovo’s house on Saturday and the picture will be complete…
Life’s little things are GREAT aren’t they?!?
