Holiday To Cornwall

Last week we all went on holiday to St Minver in Cornwall and stayed in a static caravan.

Oliver helped the fishermen at Port Isaac.

We went to Land's End.

Charlie's Birth Registered

Oliver & I visited Birmingham Register Office to register Charlie's birth (Charlie had to stay at home because he is still poorly). He is now officially called Charlie William Thomas and appears in the family tree.

Chicken Pox Update

We took Charlie back to the hospital this afternoon as his breathing had become laboured. They x-rayed his chest and ruled out Pneumonia and offered to keep him in over night (although they had no beds at that hospital) but we chose to take him home and monitor him ourselves.

Oliver & Harvey at the Nature Centre

Oliver and Harvey went to Birmingham Nature Centre this morning for their story time.

More Chicken Pox!!!

Ahhhh!!!! Charlie now has Chicken Pox. The first spots appeared yesterday but only when one of them turned into water filled blister over night did we think it was Chicken Pox. We took him to Birmingham Children's Hospital this morning and they confirmed it. We need to keep an eye on his temperature and for any signs of other infections.
