I thought it might be good to post a bit in here....perhaps get to know people round here a bit better....
Well, today I have done nothing at all....Helena is celebrating the run up to her 1st birthday by being a grumpy non-sleeping whatsit and I've got sinusitis....so we've been reading books and eating all morning.
Helena has also been working on her acrobatic bfing positions...current favorite is standing up on my knee leaning over and wiggling her bum....she's lucky I don't care about showing my bits off to the universe!
As her birthday is next Monday I've been thinking a lot about my labour....I was sooooo lucky to enjoy it...well, after my waters broke anyway it just wasn't painful....more crazily exhilarating! Bless her, she's a total star....I'm going all gooey now!
It was also My and Chris' 8th anniversary yesterday....we didn't really do anything, but then we have an exciting long weekend planned....on saturday we're holing up with the Harry Potter book and stacks of green&blacks, on sunday we're having my sister and her other half over for Helena's birthday lunch (a roast, with cauliflower cheese for that lot, sunflower seed roast for meeeee!)...then on Monday we're having a lovely long family day out for the three of us visiting Formby red squirrel sanctuary and the beach, with a picnic.
8 years with Chris...I was 16 when we got together, he was 18....and we spent the evening snogging at a party....by a few weeks later we both knew that we were in this for the long haul....we moved in together on January 4th 2003, got married August 5th 2005 and our darling girl arrived on July 23rd 2006 at 7.15am, the most stunningly beautiful sunday morning of my life. I'm so in love with both of them I barely know what to do with myself sometimes.
I'm not usually this gooey....you have just caught me at an emotional time of year!
