Well today it's cold and there is a dusting of snow outside - heating on constant....
My current motherly worries, (like X Factor, in no particular order):
- When do I get a 2nd stage car seat...?
- Will I know what to do with weaning...?
- Will my already compromised low volume of breast milk cope with weaning...?
- Will hubby ever stop annoying me?
- Will I get all the housework done before Mum arrives on 9th December?
- Will Aaron's cough clear up... that he's had on and off since October?
- He was up 3 times in the night last night - when will he sleep through again?
- What shall I get him for Xmas?
- What do I need to do to help him sit up by himself?
- Do I teach / stimulate him enough?
- How will I get chance to decorate the spare room into a nursery? Didn't until now as I took the official advice of him rooming in with us in a bedside cot for 6 months.
- How will I declutter the study to decorate it in the first place........?
- How will I get chance to get outfits for Xmas parties.
- Will I manage to get the Xmas decorations up?
- When am I going to buy and write xmas cards?
- Will I make the last posting day for Ireland?
But what makes up for the above is:
- His smile makes me MELT.
- He is such a big, healthy, adorable bundle of joy.
- He normally only cries when something is wrong.
- Having him in the cot next to my bed is such a comfort and a pleasure.
- He completes our little family.
- I take pride in how much joy my Mum gets from her first Grandson.
- I did it! I made a baby!
- He loves his toes! He has discovered them and loves touching them and trying to chew them.
- His smile when I go to get him out of his cot.
- The way he responds to the WORLD with such curiosity.
- His chitty chatter gobble-de-gook!
- His clothes - I LOVE dressing him.
- Bathing him - and seeing him kick and splash.
- Seeing how much his Daddy loves him.
- Looking through nearly 6 months of stunning photos - you are very photogenic little man!
That's all for now... Here on 2nd December I stop at point 15, but I hope to edit this post in the near future and add some more.
