This is going back a few years (6 years to be precise).
I found a video of the two oldest boys, going sledging. Alright, not exactly sledging, but being dragged along; to the top of a slope, in the park.
Those of you that know them now; can you believe they were once this cute?
The question is, we've had a White Chanukah, but, will it be a White Christmas this year?

That Friday Feeling
Well, maybe it's too late for Friday, but anyway.
It's THAT weekend. My baby is going to be one on Sunday, but we're starting the celebrations early; i.e. today. As Sunday is going to be so busy, we're going to give him his presents today - well he doesn't know any different - in fact one of them needed to be put together and I've already done that. It's a Fisher Price giraffe, that should encourage him to pull himself up.
This afternoon, I took my oldest to Borders to buy a couple of books. He's recently got into Captain Underpants, and having read one of them the other day, I promised we would get another. So that was a pleasant little trip (plus he wanted to look in Game - he loves that shop).
I've just finished watching King Kong (the Peter Jackson version) which is why I'm still up. It's very long, but the effects are terrific, and there are some scenes that are totally computer generated. Beautifully done, but the scenes on the ship could have been shortened. I saw the original not long ago, and that was also great, and about half the length.
Apparently it's going to snow tomorrow. It tried this evening, when I went to Tesco, but since then nothing. I think we're going to get away with it.
Right then. It's late, and it's going to be busy tomorrow. Off to bed.
Sleep well.

Thirsty Thursday
Have you ever listened to the Chris Evans show on Radio 2. He does the Drivetime slot, and each day is given a name - today is Thirsty Thursday (I think he's alluding the fact that he can relax after tomorrow's "All Request Friday" - and enjoy a drink at his local.
Well, the countdown has started in earnest for our party at the weekend. Number three is going to be one (maybe I've mentioned it already) and his brothers are so psyched up for it, you'd think it was theirs. My parents, sister and nephew, along with my cousins are also coming up for the party, which will be lovely. We're having the main event at a toddlers indoor playground, and then it's back to ours to continue to chaos.
No doubt I'll take some video, and post it onto my You Tube channel. Or you can go directly to JET Pictures for a look.
Talking of chaos. Suppposedly the weather was going to be treacherous today. Well, I can happily report that the one or two flakes of snow seen in Manchester did not settle.
Oh, and good news. My Sky Broadband box finally arrived at my house. So all the calls to redirect the delivery were in vain, but never mind. It's here now, and I just have to wait until next week before my line is switched over.
I've not been feeling too well over the last few days, and it got the better of me today. I finished work at about 3.30 and headed home, where I promptly fell asleep for about an hour. I really don't fancy driving down tomorrow, so I'll see how I feel in the morning.

I must be crazy...
I've just decided to place a bet on the final of the Tri-Nations cricket.
Australia v England - and I bet that England will win!!
The odds? 17/5!!
I bet £7.19 (which is the balance in my William Hill account).
If they win, I collect about £31. Break open the bubbly!!!
-----------
Following my blog this morning about the weather - I think we're in for a cold one for the rest of the week - and apparently, it's going to snow again on Thursday (fingers crossed).
I've checked, and it's not snowing now, but my car is iced over - which means an earlier start as I'll have to scrape it all away.
Anyway. I've got a massive headache. So I'm off to bed.

Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow...
It's snowing.
The temperature gauge on my car this morning showed -3 degrees. Brrr. As we travelled down the motorway, the snow started to fall, and was actually settling.
The question is... will it continue? Can I make a snowman tomorrow with the children?
Oh - BIG news. My little baby has crawled. He will be one on Sunday, and at last he has discovered the ability to move himself. OK, so he's not that graceful, and is more commando than crawling - but he did propel himself along the floor to get to Heffalump. He loves that toy - and won't sleep without it. There's one in his cot, one in the buggy and one in the car. All bases covered.
His two big brothers were so excited about him crawling, and I'm sure that helped motivate him.
I'll keep you informed of his progress.
Right. Now time to get the stats finished for yesterday.
