    Great. It’s Monday morning, and the start of a new week, and I can barely keep my eyes open. Jack is still teething, and we haven’t slept much since Thursday. I don’t remember being this tired when he was first born and having regular feeds in the night.

    That didn’t last long. The poor little monster must have some serious new molar action going on in his upper jaw. He’s hot, his cheeks are bright red, and he has been crying all day long. Bonjella sorts him out, so it must be his teeth. I cut a new wisdom tooth a couple of…

    Phew. Those spots on Jack have disappeared. They stayed around for a couple of days though. Just a rash? He’s tottering all over the place now. He walks across the living room, carrying his toys, wandering from sofa to table to sideboard. And he can safely lower himself from the sofa or bed onto the…

    Oh man. I was picking up some stuff from stores today and saw a brand new G5 being delivered with an Apple screen. Nice. I wonder who that was for? Frankly, this is good motivation for me to write those grant applications I’ve been thinking about. I think I should get more into bioinformatics too,…

    Oh dear. I said it wouldn’t take long. Jack has a very light rash over his upper body, and two of his mates have just had chicken pox. Fingers crossed that it’s just a rash, eh? He’s had a bit of a wobbly day today. He must have fallen over almost a dozen times, cracking…

    I still haven’t finished Jack’s first year DVD. We seem to have accrued a huge amount of footage (1st time parents, eh?) which I’m sifting through on my Mac. I’m really busy finishing up as much research as possible before I go to Swansea, so I’m not having the spare time to get on and…

    I just posted this on Spymac. How messy is my desk? It’s never normally that bad, honest.

    Ha! My website is getting more regular, daily hits than the news page on the www.cardiffjif.com website! I don’t know why I’m laughing. It took me a hell of a lot of effort to develop that website. And I’m paying out of my own pocket for it’s hosting because of the PHP fiasco. Oh well.…
