I feel a little like we've been hit by a life tsunami recently and that I am bobbing just above the water somwhere removed from where I should be. Busy times.
In world news our new prince has been safely delivered...weighing in at a 'whopping' 8lbs 6. Now fair size as that is I recon number 3 is at least that by now and somehow I've got to get to October. Still, at least noone has stopped me in the street to offer to demonstrate perineal massage as happened to a friend of mine this week- There are some mighty queer folk about! Back to the baby...George...predictable but it was unlikley (although enjoyable) to have been Tony. I pity anyone who gave birth on that day and had wanted to call their baby George by chance- a very respectable name but you would have to spend the whole childs life claiming you hadn't just copied the HRHs!
Closer to home Mol decided this morning she would wear pants. I was not prepared for this but will go with the flow and there were some of Laurie's old ones in a box. She went on an adventure to Tescos ( and why not) to buy some new ones , which went rather well meaning she was intent on wearing as many pairs as possible at once. All very well, if reminiscent of a 90's friends episode...until she has an accident and thats 5 pairs out of action at once. We're in for a long week!
I took Laurie to buy his new school sweater-which he has worn ever since. It's slightly heartbreaking seeing as he's still 3 and far too wee to start big school. Hopefully he'll enjoy it but I'm bracing myself for a breakdown at some point. He's also somwhere got hold of the concept of 'dead'. Which is something I wans't prepared for. I'm currently taking a very religious take or simply trying to distract him with news of passing tractors until I can think of a more comprehensive, ae appropariate response.
No 3 is behaving but growing a bit too much and has a fondness for my kicking my lungs and trying to escape 'Alien' style out of my belly button. Surley anything this hyperactive must be a boy? And I was growing so fond of my unbroken nights too......
