Mealy and I

Home Sweet Home

Well we are home and I guess the fun begins.

Amelia has spent the last few days taking our blood pressure and checking our ears with her new Dr's set (a gift from Baden on his arrival) and playing in her home corner with her new doll and every once in a while stopping to peek at Baden and ask questions. Baden is a very content baby and a joy to care for (after having had Amelia suffer with lung and breathing issues at birth it has started off by being a completely different experience)

It sounds charmed, doesn't it? It is. Don't get me wrong - Tim and I haven't had much sleep, we have a little man who seems to have his days and nights mixed up. We did our first trip into town today and almost left Baden at home in his basinette. Thank goodness for Mum (who is staying for four more weeks - in an attempt for me to get my head around everything) who was sitting in the back seat and said "Where's Baden?"...but, mostly, our life is relatively calm. We have so very much to be thankful for. And as Tim keeps reminding me, we were still in hospital with Amelia at this point!

And while I'm at it, I want to say thank you to every one of you who has dropped by to wish us well. I've been tickled to get all of your comments, and meet the new visitors. It's been a happy week - a sleepless one - but a happy one, too.

We're all recuperating and crafting and sewing will resume shortly... I have an outfit for Amelia and I that I would like to make for Mr B's Baptism (hmmm - I have two weeks!) And knitting to do for Mr B who's arms are already too long for his size000 jump suits!

So until I get back, have fun, and I do promise not to neglect this little blog!
