Jumping Junior the Spa BABY!

Baby went in the spa tonight - P2 donned her Lil' Swimmer diapers and joined Our Hero and Ferry Godmother for a splash in the hot tub. Don't worry, it wasn't that hot - 99 degrees to be good for baby.

She was very apprehensive at first but by the end of five minutes she was kicking and splashing and smiling. She has a cold so we thought it might help relieve some of her stuffiness. She is sacked out now so I am pretty sure it worked.

Tomorrow she turns five months old!P2's favorite activity these days is the jumperoo but she always looks surprised when she first gets in it. She is really trying to jump up to the moon!

Green Beer and Waffles

Happy St. Patrick's Day! (almost) Last year at this time I was nine weeks pregnant, couldn't drink green beer, couldn't stay awake more than two hours in a row and always was running to the bathroom. I had just started telling people about my pregnancy and I was having MAJOR waffle cravings! Major.

This year I am hiring a sitter for my little lephrechan, skipping the waffles, the naps and heading straight for the pub...and probably a few trips to loo, too.
