most evenings…

[vimeo clip_id= http://www.vimeo.com/54714421 w=500&h=281]      We dance around to music and even though papa’s phone really isn’t the best camera, we managed to capture Georgie in all his glory.

Notes: I’ve just gotten into Vimeo, an awesome platform for making little videos, so bare with me. I hope to get better within the next ten years.

beautiful days are coming

       My mood seems to brighten up once rainy days and chilly nights creep up. Any wonder why? I am a utter romantic when it comes to Christmas. I have beautiful memories of December days in a cosy home filled with music and cooking. My parents went out of their way to ensure we had a magical time even insisting on pretending to be a certain someone with bags of presents until I was 15!       Papa and I are going to do our best to make sure that this little boy gets the same beautiful experiences.

A lot of the timeI am happy with just the three of us. I just don’t see another baby fitting into this picture. I can’t say I particularly miss those first few months, the non-stop breastfeeding, sleepless nights and the overall haze. Georgie was a restless baby, catching me completely off-guard even though I had cared for my sister’s children. It scared me, to be honest. I didn’t expect it to be so hard. Everyday, I would grieve the loss of my independence. I can’t say I was depressed but then again, many new mummies are but just don’t know what the hell is going on.
