Swimming

We just had a lovely day visit from Mum, Kris and Nan. They said they would be over bright and breezy so, being bryants got here not long before midday. Not a problem as Thai new meds for her cancer are making her a little incontinent and she had had a particularly bad night so I had a lot of cleaning up to do. Having sat about a bit while waiting for the monster to wake up Nathan gave an improtue concert with his three backing singers/percussionists and I then quickly cooked chicken fajitas for lunch (unfortunately Nan was briefly ill - didn't stop her finishing her lunch though). We then headed to the pool where Nate used any excuse to play with his Aunty (forcing her to sing "twinkle twinkle" over and over) and nan, Mum and I nattered about this and that. Nathan is so much more stable on his feet in the pool now and can walk right to the deep edge now and still keep his head above water. He was so good (despite an accident on the changing room floor) that I let him have £1 for the bob the builder ride. (Mum and kris took photos but I forgot).

We then headed back to mine and Nate had some of my leftover failed Sheperds pie for his tea which he managed a few bites from me and then insisted on sitting on his aunties lap to eat the rest and was treated to her best train impression (he has recently started doing woo-woo noises and actions for trains so Kris was kept amused too). After tea Nate acted as a money courier between me and Mum and Kris to settle up after swimming and was very chuffed when I gave him two 1p's for helping. Nan then showed him how to put them in his pocket (after he popped them in his potty) and gave him 2p and Nanny chipped in with another 1p. All of them went in his pocket and were taken out and were very carefully put back one by one and then taken out ad nauseum for the rest of the afternoon... All in all it was a very pleasant way to spend the day..

His poor Daddy however has had metting all afternoon and will be late home but I will keep the boy up to see his daddy if he isn't too late.
