So much so that DS still asleep (almost unheard of) - its all this fresh sea air

Am staying with a friend but Flying here and some serious decluttering as well - another trip to the tip later followed by a CS run, and then the beach!

Rhys also took his first two steps by himself last night, i'm so chuffed.:D I give him a week now and he'll be running room the livingroom.:rotfl:
