Conor and I have had a nice day today. We spent most of it in the house because it was very icy outside, but we did venture out in the afternoon for a short walk to Tesco and up the windy path with Auntie Katie and Ryan. Unfortunately in the places where the ice hadn't melted it was treacherous and I had to off-road on to the grass a couple of times.

We had roasted vegetables in tomato sauce with pasta for our dinner. Conor got lots of the sauce on his top, hence the vest-only look in the picture. We had much hilarity playing with the Jake ball, but I couldn't play and photograph at the same time.

He is making a sound to accompany his wave, it goes baaaa-ba. It's the same every time and I'm sure he's trying to say bye-bye. I tried to get a video but he wouldn't oblige.

His cousin Arron was admitted to hospital with bronchiolitis last night. Unfortunately his case is more severe than Conor's as he also has a bacterial infection in his lungs, so he is spending at least another night in hospital.

We are looking forward to Ed and Orla coming home tomorrow.
