The passion

Today is a good day. Kimi Raikkonen has just won the british grand prix with Alonso 2nd so more points cut from Hamilton's lead.

I am really bored of listening to itv drone on & on & on & on & on about Lewis Hamilton. Today Kimi drove a great race to bring another win home for Ferrari. Ferrari seem to have well & truly bounced back from their recent slump which is great for the championship. This year looks to be a close fight between 4 drivers, usually by the halfway point in the season it is clearly between 2 drivers but this year we have Kimi, Fernando, Massa & Lewis all capable of winning this years championship.

I am looking forward to next weekend, Honda are having a charity open day at their Formula 1 factory in Brackley which I have tockets to. Nic is coming with me as she wants the chance to have a go in the F1 simulator. Jenson Button will be there as well as Anthony Davidson, Murray Walker, & loads more..including Jody Scheckter, Ferrari's last world champion before Schumacher. It should be a fantastic day.

I haven't had much time to update my journal recently so I apologise to those of you who have told me you need more entries. I just never seem to have enough time for everything these days, between looking after Jack, work, housework, & my limited social life I think I need about 36 hours in each day.

Jack is now sort of crawling, he either pushes himself along with his feet or pulls himself along with his hands but hasn't quite got the hang of using both together, although I think it is only a matter of weeks before he is crawling properly. He has progressed from milk to having 'mush' as well now. We have a freezer full of pureed veg & fruit for him, he doesn't like baby rice at all but give him apple puree or sweet potato puree & he will eat it all. Nic moans becasue when I feed him he doesn't make much mess but if she feeds him he gets covered in food, I've tried telling her Jack knows daddy is the boss but she doesn't believe me.

He has started waking more during the nights now, either 2 or 3 times between midnight & 8am he wakes up for a feed. I would love for him to go back to sleeping through the night completely but who knows when that will happen again. My friend at work brought her baby in to see us last week, she is gorgeous & I am so jealous because her daughter has slept through the night ever since she was born.

We are looking at moving house at the end of august when our tenancy ends as we only have a shower here & it is not big enough to be able to take Jack in the shower with us & he is very nearly too big for his baby bath already so we want a house with a bath. It would also be nice to have 3 bedrooms so we can have family come to visit & have somewhere for them to sleep instead of just having a few hours visit before they have to go home again. Moving is horrible so we will let my mum or Nic's parents look after Jack for a couple of days while we move. Nic will be going back to work next month as well so its all happening here.

Right better go before I get told off for not doing my jobs around the house!! Hope you are all well..take care & I will be back again (hopefully) soon...VampJack x
