Dear everyone,
I’m writing this post to tell you that I am not sure I can keep up with this blog.  I have enjoyed keeping it and love having a place to write down my thoughts and share the stories of our family but I feel that it is taking away from the time I spend [...]


Not reeeeeally but I am so surprised at how fast time is flying and how much he has grown and developed in that short space of 4 months!
My little baby is big… now weighing a whole stone (14lbs)!!  He is now able to lift his head, neck and shoulders CLEAR off the ground in tummy [...]

20th September

On Saturday, my mum came and collected Ollie for the day.  We had originally planned that he be babysat so that we could finish sorting out the house but instead we went out for lunch and had [...]

I did not know that I had put that many photos in the last post!  Sorry about that!  I hope the page loads ok! (You can click them to make them bigger!)


Our first family holiday was a success.  Were back from 4 and a half lovely days of relaxing, eating lovely food and viewing the amazing Scottish sights and scenery!  It was great to have James for a long weekend instead of just the normal two days and Ollie kept quite happy almost the entire time!  [...]


Ollie is spending his first night away from home with my mum tonight.  I’m not nervous about my mum minding him for the whole night… I’m just nervous about missing him dreadfully… I don’t know.  I guess the first time is supposed to be a bit scary.  I just wonder does he know he is [...]



of late have been a bit more than awful…
I promise promise promise promise I’ll make a little bit of time for myself to blog in the evenings.
Life has been hectic since we moved back here… we LOVE it and since moving back and seeing family and friends again… our social life has just exploded.  I [...]


…and it was my mum that got the giggle out of him!  She tickled his belly.  This happened a couple of days ago and ever since I have been trying my hardest to tickle him in the same way and I just can’t do it!  James hasn’t made him laugh yet either!  I don’t know [...]


boo…

My lovely little man didn’t sleep through last night.  He woke for a feed at 3… at least we got 5 nights in a row from him though… maybe last night was a one off and he will go ack to sleeping right through again tonight hehe.  Fingers crossed… I was seriously enjoying it!


I think were onto something with Ollie sleeping through the night.  This is awesome.  I feel so rested!


My boy Ollie did it again last night… sleeping right through.  What a clever and angelic little guy!  You must have been crossing your fingers!!!  Keep them crossed because I’m enjoying these nights!


One of the search terms from today that led somene to this blog….
Pregnancy and baby poking out….

Sleep

10Sep08

Oh my goodness… what a difference a whole nights sleep makes.  In… em…90 days I haven’t really had an entire nights sleep… completly unbroken and deep… but last night little Ollie slept the whole way through!  Recently he has been going to be at 8.30 – 9.00 and I give him a dream feed (when [...]


So… as some of you may know I moved back to Belfast last week.  My husband and I had been living 100 miles away in Dublin for the past 2 and a half years and we decided it was just time to come back.  We got engaged while we were living in Dublin, married and [...]


My Weekend

09Sep08

I had a wonderful weekend (kind of our first proper weekend here since we only moves in last weekend) back here in Belfast.
Friday night we had my best friend Charlene and her husband over for dinner as they had not seen the house yet.  They brought their adorable 11 month old son Josh also and [...]


Ollie and I decided to go to the Doctors on Monday instead.  Were just gonna snuggle up all nice and warm today! :-) Yucky day!


Well, we now officially have proper internet again…. and phone…. and virgin tv!  Except we don’t have a tv yet.  We had to sell our massive 52 inch tv because it won’t fit in our little house so we have bought a new 32 inch tv which is being delivered on Wednesday.  I don’t really [...]

Ollie has started reeeeeeeeeeally babbling….we have long in depth conversations together now and it’s just adorable.  It melts my heart :-)


Hi!

02Sep08

I’m back for just this next couple of minutes… were at the inlaws for dinner so taking a quick 5 minutes to say Hi.
WERE MOVED!  Woohoo…. the house is still in a shambles but we nearly have it all together.  Our internet etc didn’t get connected on Monday as expected but is happening on Friday [...]


Quick Update!

27Aug08

Having no internet is soooooooooooooooooo boring!!  I’m really starting to realise just how long I spend on it!  Having no tv is just as bad… I’m missing out on my daily doses of Gilmore Girls, One Tree Hill and Hollyoaks… boo…
I officially hate packing… it just makes the boredom even more boring… but at least [...]


is going ok…. were mad busy and this week we also have no internet.  I am currently sitting in an internet cafe trying to write a couple of posts.  We also have no digital tv.  This week should be a boring one but unfortunately I’ll be too busy to notice hehe!  So this is just [...]


Whoop!! Oh I am so excited! I got this award from my blog buddy and real life penpal Jia over at Color Me Untypical
Jia made this award herself… I think it’s really cute! Go visit Jia… she has so many stories about her church, her dogs and hilarious stories involving her and [...]


As you may have read previously, James and I have been trying to establish a better bedtime routine for Ollie. He previously went to bed at the same time as us… after his 11.30pm feed, but this meant James and I had no time to ourselves! We started a bedtime routine of feed, bath, massage [...]
