6 weeks

Posted on

Amy made it to 6 weeks and that means I did too!! Yay – that is quite an acheivement cause “the first 6 weeks are always the hardest”.

Meg had her birthday party on Saturday. 10 little kids running around made quite a din, but it was great fun and she really enjoyed her first “real” party. This was the event that I won in the auction, so it was fully run by a team of 2 and they just came here to the house. Justin did an awesome job with the food and it all went off quite well I think. Just prior to the party I had 2 days with a gastro bug. Bad timing – got me when all my defences were down. Feeling heaps better now though, but Holly got it last night and hence is at home from school today.

We had a change of bedrooms over the weekend. Amy is now on the same level as me in the pink room, and the 3 other girls are upstairs in the “big” room altogether. Jess has progressed to the bottom bunk from the cot, and Meg went to the top bunk and Holly now has a single bed. They have it all decked out with their favourite things and I must say it is quite good and I would have loved something like that when I was sharing a tiny little room with Kate and Lisa back in the 70’s.

Off to the GP tomorrow to have my 6 week postnatal check and to get the results of Amy’s hip ultrasound, and I suppose to be advised about what will happen next in regards to that. I suspect that we’ll be at the Orthopedic Specialists office before the month is out.

Picked up an issue of Scapbooking Memories this morning becasue it has Rach’s Layout on the cover. I said to the girl who served me – “Have you seen this? It is my best friends. She made the cover. Isn’t she clever??” and lucky for her, she agreed!

Better go, dummy has fallen out and all hell has broken loose in Amy’s world 🙂
