Chrissy's Hen Night

It was Chrissy's hen night last night. We had lots of fun, gin and dancing so it was a very good night. Even better I got to stay away in Leeds so also had a good night's sleep! (And in case you are wondering, yes she does have goats on her head! Probably best not to wonder why...)

Bad day

Tully has been a right little sod now non stop since she woke up yesterday. I think she's had about 4 hous sleep in total and all that's been in 10 minute bursts. I was going loopy so Mark has taken the day off today to help out so I'm just about keeping sane, but it's not good. I'm going off this parenting malarkey. :-(

Pregnancies

So many of my friends are pregnant at the moment. Steph is due on the 2nd May, so not long to go now. And I've recently found out that Emma is expecting, due in September (her 12 week scan is on her blog), Vicki is expectng her second, also in September, and Caroline sent me an e-mail yesterday announcing she is due in September too!!! Do you think it's something in the water? Or is it more likely too much fun and frolics at Christmas...

The last week

So, once again it's been a while since I've posted anything here. It's partly as I don't want to repeat what Tully says as, lets be honest, I'm not up to much else at the moment.

Last week I went back to stay at mum and dad's while Mark was out in the US. I'm really glad I went back - think I'd have had a nightmare at home on my own for the week. It also meant I had chance to go round and visit all the Lincolnshire relatives.

This week my dilemma is working out the logistics of going shopping to wear at Chris and Chrissy's wedding with a baby... It seems that every task that used to take minimal planning and last 30 minutes suddenly turns into an event that requires military planning and lasts a full day!!!!

Ewan Jones

Finally Lindsey and Saul have sent me a picture of Ewan - it only took 3 months!!! I've always been told he looks just like his dad, but from this picture I have to disagree. The expression on his face is 100% Lindsey if you ask me...

Night Out

Mark thought I deserved a night off, so he arranged for me to go and stay with Jon and Mandy for the night last night so i could catch up on sleep. It didn't quite go according to plan though as I then also gatecrashed Mandy's night out round at Mels where I drank a bit too much red wine (given I'm a total lightweight at the moment this was actaully quite a pitifully small amount), and getting back to the Hills house at 2am! I woke up this morning after only 5 hours of sleep wondering why my head felt so fuzzy and then remembered all about the joy of hangovers!!!! Evil red wine of doom...

Going it alone...

Well, Mark's paternity leave has finaly come to an end, and today is my first day at home alone with Tully. How am I coping? Well, given she went straight to sleep after I fed her at 8 this morning, and is still asleep now, pretty well I'd say! This baby business is easy!!!!! So far I've spent the day catching up on the last couple of weeks ER.
