And Another Five....

1.  Monday was  a hectic day. James 2.5 year check came out incredibly well. He has reached every milestone expected of him and is ahead in some aspects of development. He is in a perfectly healthy height and weight range and loved the attention as well as the books he got. I've also been told by one of his pre-school carers that he is a very happy confident little boy. Today he even ate his lunch as he was feeling more comfortable in the environment. He is a wonderful little guy.
2.  Matthews parents evening was also Monday. He is doing so much better than at his last one. He was doing fine then but his teacher was full of praise on how much he is improving with his writing, his concentration and being able to get on with work. He is not vying for the attention of the whole class so much and is doing very well to meet all targets for his age. I am very proud of him. I allowed him to attend with me since I now think he is at an age he can listen and take notice of what is said a little more. Especially when it is praise. I think that this teacher has really bought out alot of confidence in Matthew and it's because of this he is doing so well. Mrs F really is a star!
3. If I LOST 1lb for every time I have thought about rejoining WW this week, there wouldn't be much need to rejoin. I have discovered today that there is a WW meeting in my village and since I am really struggling with the weight this year I am going to bite the bullet and join myself up next Tuesday.
4. I am discovering that having longer nails makes me realise how much dirt gets under the nail. It's kinda gross.
5. I could be finding more dirt under my nails since it's been operation "clear up, sort out and get things up to date" week. All looking much more shipshape at home now.
