Today is the first day of my online diary. I decided to start it today as it's a day when Holly is with her Dad so I actually have time to sit down and put some thoughts on to paper. Today has been relatively quiet on the work front as it seems many of my colleagues are away on holiday or out of the office, and that honestly suits me down to the ground. It gave me chance to catch up on all the paperwork that has been growling at me all week, and make some phone calls to catch up with people.
On the Holly front it has been quite a different story. Today we found out that she had a poop at nursery......on the potty! She won't have a wee yet but we've got her having poops and I'm the proudest mummy in the world. Oh how my life has changed! No longer does a fancy new frock, a night on the town or clothes shopping thrill me, but it's my little baby having a poop on the potty. In light of this my evening has been spent making her potty at home more attractive. I've got some stickers for her to decorate it with, a special teddy to sit with her and some books that are now potty books. It's amazing what lengths we go to for these life changing events. Her Uncle Andy is visiting tonight so I've no doubt that he will also be getting the full poop story from her.
I also became an auntie yesterday to a beautiful baby girl. Baby Dion was born weighing 7lbs 5 and mummy and baby are doing well. I'm hoping to get across and see them this weekend so I'm making a baby blanket for her. It's nothing spectacular, despite how it looks in my head, but I think that home made stuff means more and lasts longer. I've also packaged up some of the cardies that my mum knitted Holly to give her. My mum would have gone knitting mad if she had still been here and I think she would have wanted Dion to have something, so I'm keeping the clothes in the family.
Well that's about it for my first diary entry. I'm off to make myself a cuppa, put the finishing touches to my blanket and then settle down for the apprentice (sad I know but I just love Nick)
Same time tomorrow.
Keep these in your pocket
