Today I have mostly been...

... achieving things.

I caught up on a month of accounting and paid a stack of bills. I sorted out some necessary correspondence and realised that I really want to sort out some unnecessary correspondence soon. I added some addresses from scraps of paper to my addressbook.

And we went shopping. We bought food for the week, and some fair trade chocolate spread - I haven't had chocolate spread for ages, because everywhere suddenly stopped stocking Green and Black's. But the fair trade shop had some Traidcraft stuff. I haven't tested it yet.

We bought more vests for Linnea. The 24-36 month size fits beautifully over a disposable nappy, and ok over a cloth nappy. She's 13.5 months old. We also bought her a booster seat so that she can eat at the table with us, instead of in her highchair. If she sits in a regular chair, her elbows are a bit low for tidy eating.

She's growing up so fast!

It's scary. It really is.

I keep thinking that - Oliver is almost twice Linnea's age. Although it does sometimes seem very much like "blink and you miss it" there's still an awful lot to go. The only thing to do is not to waste any more time by wishing you hadn't missed the previous bits...

I once had a cute baby with curly hair and big blue eyes, always awake but always smiley. He had a pair of bright pink dungarees at one point and chattered non stop, up with the little tweety birds and still talking and singing through the evening and late into the night telling stories to cuddly toys.

I blinked briefly.

There is a certain 6' hulking, monosyllabic, teen goth-in-black, crawls out of his room occasionally to empty the other half of the fridge.

But I have the photographic evidence. heh...

Also have picture of Wednesday Addams when she was wearing a frilly dress. (M-in-Law purchase, had to wear it at least once).

I think A4 sized prints of each in the hallway would be nice. They don't for some reason.
