Lazy days...

I have been really rubbish at updating my blog. I have alot of stuff to write about and things I need to vent about but I am not entirely sure that they are blog-appropriate as I never know who might be reading! Apart from the rants, life spretty unexciting! I am sure you would all LOVE to hear about my daily addiction to Big Brother and other wonders of British TV but I will spare you all the boredom!! The great news is that Joey is really coming on in leaps and bounds in the language department. I have really been worried about this as until we came here, he had yet to utter a truly discernible word and although I largely put it down to being brought up in a bi-lingual household, I was still concerned. Since coming to London his vocabulary has expanded to "juice", "ball", "ba" (for bath) "more", "woof-woof", "yeah" and something that sounds distinctly like "grandma". It is so cute watching him learn so many new things!! His favourite thing to do is to help my Mum water the garden and he follows her EVERYWHERE. I am enjoying having some space and time to myself. Daisuke arrived yesterday and we celebrated his birthday in style! (Will post pictures another time!!) He was chuffed because people don't go all out to celebrate birthdays very often in Japan! My Mum made him a trifle specially so he was a happy bunny! (he even had trifle for breakfast this morning!!!)
