Nanna visited today. The weather was wonderful and we'd already fed the ducks and played on the swings.

Nathan spent at least an hour playing with Nanna in dad's car, and the rest of the time out in the garden. He had a lovely time. The lad also ate really well today, as if he was actually hungry.

A quiet day today. We posted some letters and had some friends around.

We were talking about a cousin's birthday. I couldn't work out why Nathan kept saying cuddles until he explained "candle stick". Ohhh, birthday candles.

After playing with dad's money the lad said "don't want it anymore", then "had enough".

First we went "swimming". Today the lad waded down the steps to chest level. The water was lovely and warm.

Then Granny came, and the two of them went on a train ride into Reading station. They both enjoyed it.

We thought we'd take it easy today. The plan was to go to Woodley library, do a spot of shopping, and go home.

Instead we met friends in Woodley, and went to The Thatchers pub for lunch. Very enjoyable, but slightly more hectic than planned for.

We went to Hickory Dickory Dock today and Nathan danced in a circle with the other children, as if he did that kind of thing every day (it's about the first time).

Then onto Blackbushe car auction to help buy uncle Adrian a new car.

The Internet fix works once more. After writing in this diary about Nathan's lack of appetite he suddenly gets one.

Maiden Erlegh toddler group in the morning. Nathan asked for a biscuit before teatime. We went to Whoosh! in the afternoon and the lad was heard saying "Supper please". Needles to say, in both cases his wish was granted. Long may it continue.
