Sorry I've been bad at updating this week We've been out and about doing lots of visiting as usual but I keep forgetting to take the camera. Today was spent with Jo and baby Zoe, then decided to have a quiet afternoon for a change (the house was getting to the point where I couldn't ignore the cleaning any longer!). Connor has just started enjoying toys like blocks and stacking rings and we spent about an hour this afternoon trying to build towers. Up until now he has taken great delight in knocking down any block towers then racing off to the next thing, but he actually sat in one place for about 45 minutes while I helped him try to stack the blocks. I was amazed that he managed to sit still for so long! He started getting quite frustrated in the end so I took him off for a game of chasey round the house which soon fixed that! This morning he spent ages putting his stacking rings on their post, it's so cool to see him thinking about things and figuring out where things go etc, with such a serious look of concentration on his face!

Bruce and I had a lovely dinner out on Tuesday night for our ninth (!) wedding anniversary, and happy anniversary to Pat and Bob for yesterday (16th).
