Once again ...

Its been ages since my last update !!!

First off I hope everyone had a wonderful christmas and new year !?!

I guess a fair bit has happened since last time .. nothing major .. just been busy with the usual day to day things, housework, childcare had a bit of anxiety issues which the doctor seems to have bought out a very mild case of depression.

Also the run up to christmas is always busy .. making sure we have all the prezzies and the decs up and sorted out whos going where and when !! Major manic time !!!

My dad came down for christmas so that was good .. both the kids were excited that he got down .. especially after all the bad snowfall in certian places.

Well update on the Anxiety .. I had a numb arm in september (end of) time .. which was caused by a trapped nerve .. this was diagnosed by a doctor but it still sent me into a state of panic. I went on for a few days and then it went as my dad was down (End of August) .. so was busy and not thinking about it for a week .. he then went back and about a week later it all came back a bit worse .. so admitted to Jon think there was something wrong and hated feeling like this so went back to the docs .. she put me on a course of anti depressants and am still taking one a day now .. now christmas and new year is out of the way I am now starting to take them every other day .. to come off of them. I feel much better although am worried if it will happen again if I am not taking them every day .. which is no problem .. I just have to start taking them every day again if I start to feel off. And then if that does happen I guess we will discuss where we go from there!!! I have my fingers MAJORLY crossed that it doesn't reoccur.

Both the kids are fine .. Ryan is still enjoying school as he always does .. hes doing really well with his work at school and think his favourite lesson is maths .. he has a real head for numbers, he gets that from his dad though!!! Reading he also enjoys and is doing really well with that and moving up stages really quick!! Drawing is another thing he enjoys .. he is FOREVER drawing lorries, shops, dairys and maps !!! The paper is never ending !!!!

Chloe is growing up VERY quick .. she is very independant .. much more so than Ryan was at her age, she understands a lot of simple instructions and says a ton of words and strings sentances together!! She is a right character and is always making us all laugh!!
She will be 21 months old on January 10th .. we are in the process of toliet training her, she is doing very well, no accidants in her pants but we are yet to get anything on the toilet .. shes cheeky and holds it in til nap time when she has her nappy on and then from then she will hold it in til shes in the bath .. tonight I am hoping to catch her while she has a wee and whip her out to finish on the toilet .. I think once she has done it once on the loo she will cotton on quick that is what she is meant to do !! Today is day 4 so it is still quite early .. but at least we haven't had accidants in her pants I guess!!!

Right well mummy duties is calling .. need to sort washing.

I will be back with Christmas pictures !!!!
