[since](http://www.adrian.tk/2006/12/what.html) [everyone](http://www.akester.net/2006/12/injustice-of-being-parent-at-christmas.html) [else](http://www.solveig.co.uk/2006/12/merry-christmas.html) [has](http://yetanotherbloomingblog.blogspot.com/2006/12/its-beginning-to-look-bit-like.html), some xmas bloggage.
A typical christmas I think — lots of family about and the kids were ill. I rather enjoyed it myself, even though I can agree with Rowan’s [lack of christmas spirit](http://www.akester.net/2006/12/injustice-of-being-parent-at-christmas.html). I’ve never expected much christmas spirit though, so it doesn’t bother me 
Poor Jacob has been teething and so had tonsillitis, which meant lots of disturbed sleep. He is getting slowly better, but his nights are worse than his days, and he’s not been eating much. He’ll be fine in a few days though I think.
We now need a new house to contain all the toys. Our first mission of today (once the kids are dressed) is to go down the road to buy enough plastic stacking storage to contain all the new toys. Next year we’re asking everyone to give us books and clothes.
The christmas dinner was a success, with the best turkey we’ve had yet, and a very nice ham, both from [Scott's](http://www.scottsofyork.co.uk/) [random plugins required]. I got to Scott’s at 8.30am on the 23rd and there was a queue down the road already.
I’ll stick a few photos up when I find the camera.
