Ok, properish catch up... have only skimmed so hullo and apologies to all...
But I see that you enjoyed Eurovision, Miamla's GP is crazy, there is stiff competition for the FBG crown, everyone's tired but there is the odd suddenly-sleeping babe to remind us that there is light at the end of the tunnel and the big kids are being their usual gorgeous, frustrating, clever, fast-growing-up selves. And LWFH! Good lord that's fast work! Congratulations, and like everyone said I hope the whole pregnancy is pure pleasure for you
We had a lovely week in Suffolk, weather wasn't nearly as bad as I expected though more churches-and-bookshops than buckets-and-spades. DD is very clingy so I didn't make as much use of the resident grandparents as I could have done but I DID get my hair cut for the first time since dec - first proper hairdressers appt since DD was born. So nice and so much cheaper than London that I got all townie-bigshot and left a massive tip . DD was very good - she is clapping now, shuffling like lightning and babbling well enough that a fond parent (or grandparent) can almost persuade themselves it means something... Funny thing about being away, our bed was too narrow for co-sleeping so I had to break my habit and get up to feed her - she woke like clockwork twice each night, otherwise slept 9pm-7am. Quite interested to see if she/I can keep it up now we're home, I feel as if it'll be easier to go from that to longer stretches asleep than when she can feed at will, maybe?
I caught a whisper as I skimmed of a possible London meet... Steaky when will you be around? First week of June? Go on, go on...
Phew! I missed you all, can you tell?
