A bit of a baby blub, apologies.... Okay, so where have I been. Its not where have I been really but I just havent had the time or the want I guess to update my blog. For some reason I havent been bothered about it although from reading others which I have been still been trying to do it seems other people havent been as bothered as well. Maybe the last couple of months theres been a blog daze in the atmosphere causing blog goggles with people not wanting to update. I even thought about closing it down but in the end I decided not to. Just on hiatus for a while. Anyway the boys, I cant put it in words how much Harry & Charlie mean to us. All I can say is thankyou!!! What a life changing experience having them they are. You grow up, you go to school, your first job, leaving home, getting married - all life changing experiences but when you have children - to me anyway this has been the big one. Words and tears cannot describe that feeling of when Harry arrived shortly afterwards by Charlie. We went into the hospital on the Wednesday, had them Thursday morning and then came home on the Friday, it was the longest day of our lives and valentine babies they werent meant to be. I actually watched the minutes tick away from February 14th into the 15th whilst Mrs C grabbed a very little of sleep that night. 3 midwife shifts we went through and The hospital staff were great in the care that we had and we cannot thank them enough. Apparently on GMTV last week there was a story about midwife care not being very good at the moment. Rubbish!! They work so damn hard and the care we had was superb. Like all nurses and for a pittance as well. They are so good we cant believe it. They were 14 weeks old last Thursday and they take up all of your time but who cares, we definately dont. Just to get a smile from them at 3am when your feeding them is enough. Incidentally as of nearly 2 weeks ago they are sleeping through most of the night. From waking at 3am every day for a feed, it just stopped. I dont mind admitting it but the first 4-6 weeks were hard. We set a record of the amount of bottles they would have between them in a day of 22, it seems like weve been hand-cuffed to the sterliser for the last few months but now we are down to 5 each per day all at a structured time. Everyone says to you it should get better over time but there are times when you cant see the light at the end of the tunnel but it comes, it really does. Playtime at 6pm, bath at 6.30pm, bottle at 7pm and then to bed. We wake them at 10.30pm for a bottle and then they sleep through until about 6am\7am. This last week has been the first week since February that I have felt normal a little bit, maybe now that is why im coming back to my xanga. I even managed to go to the gym twice last week which made me feel a lot better about myself. Our once tidy, clean house is now not as tidy but thats babies for you. Weve had to buy a new car as we couldnt get everything in the old one so that kept us busy for a while trying to find the right one. Once the boys were born I took 4 weeks of from work which was nice but went way to quick and now when Im at work all I want to do is be at home with the boys. Im having to work this Bank Holiday Monday and sitting at my desk writing this I would so much rather be at home. It never used to be like this so much. Work took up so much of my life but now I dont really care. Mrs C - I dont know how she does it to be honest. When I have them on my own, its hard enough running around after them taking care of them. How she does everything else in the house I do not know. She goes to bed a lot earlier now though he he he.... Anyway how have you all been?
