In honour of the boy's 1st birthday I thought a photo change was called for so I've updated my picture with one taken of the two of us on his birthday. I can't believe a year has passed - it feels as though it was just recent that I put up the photo of me holding him in hospital. I was overjoyed that he and my darling wife were ok after a fairly scary delivery and just loved spending time with them in those first weeks.
It's been great, this last month, spending time with my wife and the kids. I officially start my new job on Monday and have already been out and about doing various bits and pieces in preparation to get going full steam ahead. I'll be working from home some of the time so I'm looking forward to being able to discuss things with my wife and talk over ideas and plans. She is very knowledgeable in many areas so I'll be picking her brains and helping look after the kids now that I have a more flexible job.
Studies don't start until the last week of September but I've already been ploughing my way through several books on topics related to what I think my research will be on. More on that to come. Now to bed for a good night's sleep before the game tomorrow against Queen's Park!
