Another Milestone

The Princess moved into her big bed last night and the transition was seamless.  She appeared to hardly notice a difference and slept through the night as normal.

This morning she just shouted for us as normal and didn't attempt to climb out herself - long may that last!

She is growing up so fast.

Been Busy Round These Parts

We have hardly been home for the whole of March but we are back!!!!!

We have had a great month which has included ...

Having a new kitchen fitted

Travelling with family to Disneyland Paris to celebrate some special birthdays

Travelling to Yorkshire for a long weekend of family gatherings and a Mothers Day meal

Visiting our old stomping ground of Windsor for a close friends wedding

Travelling down the country visiting more family on the way

and generally doing lots of eating, drinking and being very merry.

Now we just have to get back into the rhythm of 'normal' life.

The princess has been a complete star during all of our travels and has behaved impeccably the whole time (of course).

Several other things have happened this month that have perhaps shaped our future. I am pleased in some ways to be able to return to our groove, so that I can have some time to reflect on the happenings and think about the future. All I know for sure is that life is not something you can plan and that every second we have in the here and now is precious and we need to enjoy it.

Not All Bad

So, I'm another year older. Not so good but the best present I had this year was the Princess singing 'Happy Birthday' to me all day long - bliss!!!!!

Things Don't Always Go Smoothly.....

I won't go into the long boring and frankly totally stressful story but things haven't gone quite according to plan this week.

Things are back on track now though and I feel like I am in the middle of a whirlwind. I am juggling so many balls in the air that I might apply for a job at the circus.

Anyway musn't moan - I mean - who would want a boring quite easy life????

I can't believe just how many things I have to pack into one day at the moment - but hopefully in about three or four weeks life will be back to it's normal, predictable (but still a bit crazy)pace.

Last night I also went along to my first Alpha meeting, which was interesting and I met a few nice people - will report back on that as I progress through the course.
