Teething

It has not been much of a week, William is still teething so we are having very restless nights. Although saying that he is getting more mobile and it is so cute how he stands up in his cot to greet us in the mornings.

Little Elizabeth is her usual cheerful self and she seems to have forgiven us for putting her beloved Teddy in the washing machine the other week.

She has even started saying Teddies rather than just Teddy, well there are two of them. I did get in trouble yesterday though as I forgot to get teddy out of the car when we came back from the shops.

The little ones do play wonderfully together though and they already seem very fond of each other, I got some wonderful pictures of them earlier.

It hasn't been much of a week though, we got quite a bit of weeding done at the beginning of the week but Tuesday morning Debbie woke up and couldn't move her fingers so our GP told us to go to A&E. Why can't I escape from hospitals this year. Anyway it seems that Debbie has swollen tendons so she has to rest them for a few days and then hopefully all will be right as rain. It was just lucky I was home as she would have found it hard to cope if I had been away.

Well I think I am definitely over my Op now, medical next week and then straight back to sea and a full nights sleep. I have started trying to get myself fit again after four weeks of Cbeebies. I fired up the Wii Fit yesterday and had a go on that and today Debbie watched the little ones whilst I cycled to Stibb and Back, it was only two miles so I have a bit to go before I can get back up to the 50mile distances I was doing before the Op. It was good to get out on the bike again as I have missed my regular bike rides. I am going to have to try and go swimming regularly again next time I am home as well. Last year I managed to do 100 lengths but I think I would struggle to do 50 at the moment. With the more stringent fitness standards that the RFA are phasing in from Jan I am determined to get fit so I don't come a cropper and anyway I still want to do the Devon coast to Coast next year and one day I will do Lands end to John O Groats.
