A Busy Sunday

Argh, I've had a migrane all day and it wont shift! Not that it stops me having loads to do, still had to get up early, go to mass, get in the shopping, make dinner, do dishes and make sure everything ready for school's going back in tomorrow!

Life never stops when your a mum, even if you feel like crap you still need to get up and on with it. Chris did let me (try) to sleep on this morning mind you, when he gotten in from work at 6.30am Violet had just woken up and wasn't for going back to sleep so he took her to play in the living room to let me sleep on till 9am as he knew I had to get up then to go to mass. Little madam was REALLY loud though so didn't get much sleep after that, could hear her giggling and shouting at him, even though I knew she was fine doesn't mean I can just switch off.

I finally got around to asking the priest for a date for the christening, its for July 4th, wanted it to be the 25th July but he was going on holiday then and would have been a different priest, I want him to do it though as he the same priest that christened Brogan, so it means more for him to do it. Have to laugh though as he determind that he putting Bridget in as a middle name for her after my gran, its starting as a running joke now, lets hope he doesn't though or Chris will be in a right huff on her christening day. Now I just need to sort out the venue, food, dress and invitations, oh and the entertainment! It's a good job I have 10 weeks to sort it all out.

I had made ratatouille vegetables with pasta for dinner, it was yummy, was eating it with Violet sitting on my knee, she not been weaned yet but kept smacking her lips and making yumm noises so I let her try it, she seemed to really like the tomato in it the most, ate some of the aubergine and courgette as well with no problems as well and was getting excited when I was giving her little bits to try, they were really soft but not pureed down, she knew that she had to chew them before swallowing as well, my clever little chica. I don't think it will be too long before I have to start weaning her, she takes a lot of interest in your food when you eating, but she still sleeping through and happy on her milk just now so hoping to hold off a little longer, she is 18 weeks 3 days just now and at 17 weeks 5 days weighted 15lb 10oz, not far off doubling her birth weight, hopefully she can hold off until then. I find it strange her not being on solids yet though as Brogan was on them at 11 weeks 4 days, she had to have it then as was taking far too much milk, 8 bottles of 8oz hungry baby, the health visitor and GP didnt want her to take so much as it could have stretched her tummy causing obesity problems in the future.

I managed to get both the girls into bed sleeping for 9pm tonight, result! Need to get an early night myself as tomorrow is Monday and they are always busy for me with school, I usually have uni but classes are now finished, Brogan has dance class as well, tomorrow she has her hearing test, her hearing been bad now for about 9 months, its been driving us crazy and in school its been bothering her as well, hopefully it nothin too serious, will find out tomorrow.
