This video is so good. I love the advice it gives. Makes me want to cry a bit. I hope I will remember all this when our baby comes.

It really sucks when illusions are forever shattered and pieces of your heart are broken into shards that can’t be put back together again. It’s a million times suckier when the person to shatter you and break your heart is someone you love.

I figured that the best way to get myself motivated to write on this blog was to have a bit of a redesign. I see so many awesome Mommy Bloggers out there with wickedly cool looking sites, and I wants me some of that action!

I have a bit of experience, of course, with web design, but for some odd reason I cannot figure out how to create a fresh, ( Read more... )

So right now, I’m aware that no one actually reads this blog. Which is actually good, as if I had any amount of followers, I’d feel really guilty about the fact that I haven’t updated in weeks!

But luckily he’s now on his way home and will be accompanying me to the hospital in the morning where they’ll ( Read more... )

Well, to add extra annoyance to my day, I’ve just been informed that my 20 week anomoly scan, which is meant to be on Tuesday, has been cancelled! They’ve re-arranged it for Friday instead.

Normally this wouldn’t be a problem… but Friday is when Mark and I are going to visit my parents in the US!!! I’m calling around the hospitals to try and book ( Read more... )
