It's been a while

The royal wedding was fun, Emily had a not the royal wedding party at school. We made cup cakes to share!We also went to Lyme Park for a picnic and walk. We had a great time! Do you like the new statues in the garden?



Joel has been busy improving on his football skills, we now have a broken light fitting in the lounge and other bumps and scrapes in the house. We are hoping for some dry weather so he can have target practise in the garden!


I am on maternity leave now! I made it to the end and am now 38 weeks pregnant and counting down. We brought the moses basket and a few toys down tonight for Emily and Joel to play with. They were amazed when we got the photograph albums out showing them sleeping in the basket, or sitting in the same baby bath or chewing the same toy! They are excited but I think a bit confused about the whole thing. They know a brother is coming but when Mummy and Daddy say soon, but he still isn't here! I suppose life from a child's view is very odd! I am swollen and have higher blood pressure than usual, I am being checked every 3 days, and they say baby may arrive early because of it! Jamie is on holiday this week as is Emily... so maybe this will be the week.


Jamie is taking the kids into Manchester tomorrow for the victory parade. They are excited, I don't fancy standing around with swollen ankles being squashed by lots of people.


Well, the bag is packed and the camera is charged, the children's bags are packed and we are as ready as we can be... maybe tonight is the night!
