My beautifully well-behaved helpful Charlotte was back after a fairly turbulent month, so we went for a walk down the street. It was one of those beautiful winter days with blue skies and just a touch of spring on the breeze. I was feeling very grateful for my bodies ability to heal and loved getting out and stretching the old muscles again.
Lucy slept most of our excursion except for a brief awakening to jump on the scales for a weigh in. She now weighs a beautifully chubby 5.3kg.
Charlotte and I sat on a step on Adelaide Road and watched the cars go by. Charlotte with her dried mango, me with my apple and Lucy with her breastmilk.
I achieved everything on my list today which always feels good.
I had a cup of tea with my mum.
I had my first night putting the girls all to bed by myself, as Raff had a meeting to go to, and it went swimmingly. Charlotte asleep at 6:30, Ella asleep at 7 and Lucy has slept most of the evening, which sure beats last nights screaming match...
My husband came home with a $900 phone that he won.
Life is good.
A rather spotty, yet still beautiful Lucy - she will be 4 weeks old in two days!

It must be nice to be feeling normal again. Well whatever normal is!It is amazing to see you with 3 kids how freaky is that. You are doing a fantastic job. You are so blessed to have Raff right behind you . It is a team effort through the years of parenting which by the way NEVER finishes it just changes dynamics through all the stages of your children and your own marriage. Keep that sense of humour it will get you through.
nic, so lovely to just hear your love and happiness virtually oozing out of the page.
