H and I both feeling less than our best, but it wasn't such a bad day. I managed to persuade him to snuggle up on the sofa some CBeebies, and later we went out to a local garden centre and ate cake together in the cafe. H isn't speaking yet - he's is in the phase of pointing to things to get me to say what they are - so the conversation wasn't scintillating ('light', 'flowers', 'light', 'a lady', 'light', 'that's a light too') but he was good company nonetheless.

Tonight's blip is a result of messing about with dead plants and tracing paper - I'm sure there'll be a few more in the same series to come!
