My family has got bigger…the latest addition is Holly Marie who was born on the 26th May; 4 weeks early.
With the biology lessons and the birth scenes in TV series I thought I knew what I was letting myself in for but nothing prepared me for when I saw them deliver the placenta. It looked like a red jelly fish like something you would see in a sci fi show. Holly who is only 3 weeks old is already causing mischief every time I change her nappy I end up covered in urine. Just when I thought that stage was over as Lucie is now out of that stage, except for puddles on the carpet, the joys of potty training.
Lucie has taken to her little sister like a duck to water, wanting to help change nappies etc. The funniest thing was she had got a large Tigger and Pooh Bear, I could hear her running about upstairs so went upstairs holding her Pooh Bear to put her back into bed. She came to the gate holding her tiny Pooh Bear and said “daddy need big Pooh” at first I thought she wanted her nappy changing so said “come on lets change your nappy”. Her response was “no daddy,big Pooh” pointing at the Pooh Bear that was in my hand.
