Freddie Rocks
I was worried I wasn't ready for motherhood but actually, I love it. I thought maybe I'd miss the buzz of working, but whilst I know making money will become important pretty quickly, I have no desire to be anywhere but babyside. Freedie is a fabulously happy baby, possible because he seems to be permenantly nestled in one cleavage or another. Mum is being heroic and has him overnight at least once a week which staves off sleep deprivation, as does the fact he sleeps pretty well already. He's smiling now, especially if you blow raspberries on his stomach. Other than that if truth be told, he's not doing loads beyond the usual baby stuff, and I'm looking forward to the stage when what's going on in his head and the blank canvas that is his personality, become a little clearer.Life by the seaside is lovely. Amy has provided me with a ready made social scene, 4 doors from home. She has usurped herself in hostessing, a weekend with the university gang provided more laughter than I can remember for years, and since then she's introduced me to a plethora of sexy single men over wine and board games on a weekly basis. It's been marvellous, I pack the baby up, wander 4 doors down, he tends to sleep through the frivolity and we stumble home in the early hours which takes all of 30 seconds.
The house is nearly finished and what's done is fabulous, however we've lost all the team, one went on a bender, another - who went on benders every evening made himself so ill he needed major surgery and nearly died and the decorater stropped off when the state of my kitchen floor which needed tiling, overwhelmed him. There's loads still to do but it's beginning to seem conquereable.
I'm offline at the moment, my PC still needs configuring, and I'm currently typing from Mum's bedroom and she wants to sleep, so I'll have to leave it here, there's loads still to tell but luckily, plenty of time to get round to it.
Thanks so much for the cards, pressies, visits, and friendship, you have, as always, been marvellous.
