Happy New Year

Ok so I'm a little late and a lot slack, but I hope everyone who reads had a good new year.

Update time. The boys are great. Jack is growing so fast, though everyone keeps telling me he's still so little which he is I guess. The little monkey hasn't cracked the 5kgs mark yet. He's keeping us all entertained with his gorgeous smiles and giggles, it's so cute. He also loves having a chat and will coo and gurgle at you as long as you keep up your end of the conversation, takes after his grandmother I think.

Brock is just as cheeky as ever, actually maybe even moreso. He's loving kindy and counts down how many sleeps until kindy day. Can't wait to get away from his mum it would seem. He went nuts over christmas and got way to much stuff and doesn't play with half of it. I've got to come up with cool presents for him for next year that don't involve another shit load of toys, he has enough already.

I've started sewing a little bit again. Just making little bits and pieces for Jack. Need to make a trip to Spotlight to find some more fabrics though. Now that I've started I keep finding more things I want to make, baby shoes being the latest. Will have to post some pics when I remember to get new batteries for the camera.

But for now here's a few of the latest pics of my littlest guy, the big one won't stand still long enough any more.

Tis the Season

Well it's that time of year again. Our xmas is set to be a very quiet one, just us and the boys.

2007 has been quite a year for me, plenty of highs and lots of lows. It will be interesting to see what's in store for 2008.

Next week won't be easy, it's the first anniversary of losing our little angel. It seems silly sometimes that I only carried Eden for 10 weeks yet I think about her everday. I want to do something special just not sure what. No doubt noone else will remember including my husband, but I guess that's ok as long as I do then she's not forgotten.

One a lighter note, I knocked up a quick digicard and thought I'd share :)

Babe in Arms

Well I'm back and my precious little babe has arrived.

Jack was born two weeks early at 1:15 am on the 2nd of November. He weighed 2820 grams or 6lbs 4oz, was 47 cms long and his head circumference was 33.5 cms. The birth was very fast but without complication and we were able to leave hospital about 14 hours later.

Everything seems to be going well with bub so far, I'm more relaxed with all the technical baby stuff this time I think. I, on the other hand, am feeling a little fragile. I feel a little disappointed and let down by the lack of enthusiasm shown by most of our family and friends. Even after everything we've been through nobody seems interested or as excited about Jack's arrival. It took my own father more than a week after Jack was born to visit us.

I don't know, maybe I expect too much. It's not like I want to talk boobs and baby poop 24/7, but geez it'd be nice to have a few visitors, or have someone ask how we are really doing. I want to show off my little miracle, but nobody seems to have the time for us.

Anyway, that was a little too self indulgent.... on to more important things, here is my special little man
