This and that...

Will be going to Scotland today to see my new little newphew (who arrived yesterday morning)! MIL and FIL were always planning on going of course, but since it's Saturday today, and they have room in their car for all of us, they asked if we'd like to come along! Yay! *is very excited* SIL actually called yesterday afternoon and we had a lovely chat - she's was obviously utterly exhausted, but very, very happy. Her husband she said looked v. rough since they'd gone in on Wednesday morning and he'd not been home since. But he was over the moon of course and bouncing off the walls! :) I could also hear the baby - those tiny little whimpering sounds they make when they're teeny tiny and OMG!Cute! I think I melted on the spot...

Another good thing about a long drive (4 hours each way) is that I'll have lots of time for knitting! I knit? Well occasionally - and currently I'm trying to finish The Cherub's Christmas stocking. I made one for each of the others, so of course she needs one too, but Christmas kinda snuck up on me so I'm a bit behind - and knitting isn't easy with a baby around! Speaking of The Cherub, she's just learned to say 'Yay' and she keeps repeating it in her adorable little baby voice! *melts again* Actually it's more like 'yaaaaaaay' - and her 'wow' is this long slow 'whaaaooow'! (OK, I'll stop now...)

And finally before I run off, then re. the Buffy Comics st_salieri said it best: My post-Chosen Buffy...!

(I'm not sure comic books are a good medium for Joss - on a TV show there are a million restrictions, and input from all sorts of people. In a comic he can do what he wants and the artist is probably more than happy to do whatever whacky ideas he comes up with! Put me down as 'Sceptical until proven otherwise' for now.)
