Nanna came today. Nathan's appetite, poor of late, seems to have returned. If only we could get him to eat "real" food, instead of biscuits etc... Oh well, the lad's on the waiting list to see a psychiatrist, but the wait's expected to be 4-5 months.

We went to Granny and Grandpa's today. The bad weather meant that we stayed indoors, but Nathan had a great time, especially when we played a postman game, involving Nathan posting a postcard through a cardboard door, Grandpa creeping out of the room, out to the front door, then ringing on the doorbell and popping the postcard through the letterbox.

Nathan managed through sheer will power to stay awake all through yesterday, and he tried it again today, but the drive back home at 5:00pm was just too much for him.

When mum is upstairs bathing Nathan and she needs dad's assistance she stamps twice on the floor.

Tonight Nathan wanted some milk after his bath so he told her to do just that. "Milk. Mummy make bang, make stamp, stamp stamp, talk a daddy."

Granny came to visit today. Nathan doesn't know it's Friday, but he does know it's the day that Granny comes.

Coming up to bed time we asked Nathan what time it was. He replied "Going upstairs time".

Nathan's language continues to improve. He's saying things like "Daddy read for Nathan please"

The cough didn't get better, so we're back on antibiotics again.

Nathan's got a bit of a cough today. Hopefully it'll get better by itself this time.

We went to Hickory Dickory Dock today, which Nathan enjoys, then into town to buy the lad a waterproof coat, so he can go out splashing in the rain.

Nathan was a bit under the weather today (he's still teething)so we didn't go to Maiden Erlegh toddler group. A two hour sleep around lunchtime made everything better and we we went to Whoosh! in the afternoon.
