Out & Abouts…

Wow, 2 weeks have passed and I haven’t updated my blog… So here is a brief summary of what DnC have been doing!

-Been to various appointments regarding my pregnancy… Thank God all is well – my placenta has moved out of the way, so that means, currently a natural delivery…
-I feel super duper uncomfortable now, with aches and pains everywhere! My belly feels quite heavy and I just feel so hot in temperature! Feeling a bit granny-fied at the moment cos of the lack of energy and can’t wait to get back into shape after Andre arrives!!
-Been to Holly and Emily’s 6th Birthday party with mum and Anais… Great fun for the kids, Chloe especially – as she walked away with one of the birthday girls’ helium balloons!!
-Been to my bestie’s Bday BBQ… Had a fab time with the bday girl Beth, great food and great company – fab meeting up with others and not having to look after Chloe! My sis and husband managed to look after her, feed her and put her to bed with no issues! Gotta do this type of thing more before Andre comes along!!
-Had another session with my sis, Claire and Mai without the kids! So great to be able to enjoy lunch without the fuss of kids!! Great company and food…

-Anais and Chloe have developed a bond now and it’s fab… Both learn from each other (good and bad stuff!)… But what is nice, is to see how Chloe ‘looks after’ Anais, treats her as a younger ‘sister’ – cos this sort of shows how Chloe may potentially act when Andre arrives…

-Chloe is more demanding and she ‘tests’ me much more now… Example includes: she ‘fake’ cries, esp. at bedtime, with tears flowing down her cheek non-stop! If she doesn’t stop crying when I leave the room, my sister or mum enters the room and blatantly asks her “Do you want to sleep with me (my sister or mum) or do you want to sleep in your own cot?” She has so far declined to sleep with either of them and takes her pillow, stops crying and lies down.. Mum or sis leaves the room and then she falls asleep… She’s usually snoring away within 5 mins on the baby monitor! What on earth!!! Another example, includes – when Grandad is around, she’ll purposely ignore my requests and just sticks to Grandad! She’ll look at me and have this cheeky grin, as to say – “Mum, you are over-ruled!”
