One thing you always look forward when you are a kid is Christmas and the big 6 week holidays that came in July and lasted all the way to September when you started a new year. Back then those 6 week holidays always seemed to pass too quickly! Well, now Christine and I hope that the next 6 weeks pass just as quickly as they did then.
We only have 42 days!! (Probably 41 by the time I post this)
and it’s just getting closer!
One piece of advice we keep getting is to enjoy your freedom
now, enjoy your sleep, enjoy your time as a couple and we have certainly done
that. Christine has been away on holidays enjoying the sun and sands with
friends and I have spent 4 days in a rainy field....as they say, each to their
own!
So even though, I have just arrived home, sunburnt, tired
and until my shower extremely tired, I couldn’t let a Monday go by without
filling my little corner of the internet with my usual drivel so....
For our second week in-a-row we are the size of a Honeydew
melon.

On a previous post found here, I welcomed our friends little
baby Eva into the world. Christine went to see mummy Claire today and both
mother and baby are doing great. Claire has taken to motherhood really well and
Eva is as cute as can be.
I understand that each person’s experiences with birth and
looking after a newborn are different but it is greatly reassuring to hear
somebody you know has found her new job so enjoyable and satisfying and reassuring.
Christine was able to ask all the questions she had and knew that Claire would
be honest. So hopefully in 6 weeks time, Claire will be coming to see our new
addition and asking many of the same questions, not for advice though, simply
to compare notes!
I will put the kettle on!
