She's just adorable!!! Such bright eyes, and that little half smile! Babies turn me into goo, I have to admit.

And yes, isn't Standish just wonderful?

Good to hear from you, hon.

[rosie_red73]

Yay! *hugs* So nice to hear from you. Of course, I think she's adorable but then I'm biased :D

And yes, Standish was fabulous. Between that and Thaw I actually looked forward to night feeds for a while! It's funny, but when I was night-feeding Sam, I was reading the HP books for the first time... spooky.

She looks just like you! :)

Congratulations, it's fabulous that everything is going that much better than last time! :)

:) Love your icon.

[rosie_red73]

Thank you! *hugs* Life is sooo much easier this time around :D

OMG darling she is a darling...just a darling.
I fell for Katie right off but it was a bit harder for me with the twins...so I know what you mean.

I will stay friended with you till the end sweets but when I had the twins and 2 year old Katie I think I was offline for over a year.
OMG I just want to cuddle her and smell her hair:) Your baby is just beautiful.

I have bought Standish and it is in my too read pile...work and the horde...and of course my LJ keeps me busy.

Miss you darling, loads and loads.
xxxxxxx

*hugs tight* Miss you too honey. I've been thinking of you a lot with all this baby stuff - how on earth you managed TWO of them with a toddler I'll never know - I barely cope with one! Her hair smells wonderful, I sniff it a lot. It smells of Johnsons baby bath and milk :D

Standish is wonderful - you HAVE to read it. *hugs more*

I really can't remember the year 2003 from April on. lol. It is just a big ole blur..but I do remember that I was done having kids:)
Here is a pic of the horde from I think 3 weeks ago. The twins are going to be 4 years old next month!!

[rosie_red73]

AWWWW! So cute! And they're four already? God, doesn't time fly. They'll be off to school soon.

I'm done having kids now too. I've got what I wanted - a boy and a girl with five years in between (well I actually wanted four years, but five is close enough), so I'm off to have my tubes cut now :D I couldn't go through pregnancy hell again.

It's good to see you back online! She's a beautiful baby, too!

I succumbed to temptation and ordered Standish last month - I'm hanging on to it to take with me on the trip to Canada in a couple of weeks. I've also bought rwday's A Strong and Sudden Thaw, which arrived this morning, and is being kept for the same purpose.

Here, have an oatcake!

[rosie_red73]

Yay! *munches* Ta. I read both Thaw and Standish in the last days of pregnancy and during the night feeds and they're both WONDERFUL. Anything that can make you look forward to dragging your ass out of bed at 4am and staying awake for an hour has got to be good.

She is beautiful! and I am so glad that she is such a good baby and you both are doing well. You guys have been in my thoughts.

[rosie_red73]

Thank you honey! *hugs* Hope you're OK - I shall have to find some time to catch up with my f-list.
