najopomo 2 mouse
Posted Nov 2, 2013
We'll already I'm doing better than last year. The Mouseling is currently watching. Rhubarb and Custard (which hasn't been CGI'd thank bob) and trying Hsu hardest to pull himself up onto his feet from sitting on the floor. Was used as a pillow by him again last night. Poor baba still isn't well.

a bit of an update.
Posted Oct 4, 2013
So it's been almost a year since opiates here.
Let's see since last November what has happened?
Oh yes I had a baby, the main reason for my notable absence on h2g2. Yep my little bundle if joy arrived safe and sound on December 17th with a little help from the midwives.
His tongue tie was divided at 5 days old (thankfully the same day my milk came in) and 9 months later we are still going strong.
Christmas and New year were a bit if a blur. I was mostly bust trying to get used to looking after a small person. We eventually settled into something of a routine.
Being blind I realised during my pregnancy would probably make pushing a pram difficult during the daytime (when I can see a bit) and impossible at night. (Scottish winters are rarer dark often the streetlight are on by 4 pm) so having done some research I purchased what was to be my mist useful baby related possession ,a Storchenweiche woven wrap.
I first carried R when he was 5 ir 6 days old. And still do list days although he now normally is carried on my back.
During April there was an event called Real Nappy Week. This was another thing I had read about during my pregnancy. I had even bought some and used them occasionally. This event however gave me the kick up the bum I needed to put R into reusable Napier full time. Apart from the odd daye needs some metanium on his bum he has been in them ever since.
R hit 6 months just after my birthday. It was time to start giving him some good alongside his mummy milk. Continuing my yoghurt knitting hippy theme I decided that Baby Led Weaning would be the best way to go about this. He had been in charge of howmmych and how often he ate since birth, why chane that? We'll it took a couple of weeks for him to get the idea, but now he will try mist things. Granted he still doesn't eat much, but given his size I'm not too worried!
R is a bug boy. He came out at 7 lb 14 and 9 months later is around 24lb which us triple his birth weight. He us wearing mostly 12)18 month size clothes (admittedly humbug cloth bum doesn't help there) and us somewhere around the 91st centile.
Recently (in the past few weeks) he has started getting mire mobile. He would wriggle, roll and bum shuffle his way around the flat, then he started taking his first aided steps, and being able to sit himself up from lying on his tummy. Now he us properly crawling, and I doubt it will be long before he us cruising round the furnuture!
In other non baby related mouse news, we are house hunting. This is a council flat with 2 bedrooms, and if there are to be any more Mouseling then we will need a bigger place to live. It's all very scary and exciting. If all goes well we could be moving before Christmas.
I think that's all the major news. This post was written on my 'smart' phone from under a sleeping baby, so please excuse any errors.

Fell off the bandwagon
Posted Nov 6, 2012
Well well well I *am* a naughty mouse. I had good intentions of partaking in and completing NaJoPoMo again this year, but erm, forgot on the second and couldn't really be bothered making up for it after that.
So it seems I have fallen off the bandwagon. Oh well at least you are all safe from reading my Drivel about my pregnancy aches and pains etc.
and should the mouseling arrive early (thought he was thinking about it earlier today) i shall make sure that h2g2 is informed as well as Babycentre, and of course Facebook.

NaJoPoMo mini, 1st.
Posted Nov 1, 2012
Okay so today i woke up around the same time as S. We didn't have any bread or milk or anything much in the flat for eating. We went to Tescos to get some shopping, S suggested when we got there that before shopping, we visit the Cafe. He had a big breakfast, and I had some Porridge. I'm quite fond of porridge these days. Then we got our shopping, including a 3 foot christmas tree for less than £3.
I struggled to carry my bag of shopping back home, S had to take it from me part of the way home. My bump is getting quite big and he is now head down which makes walking long distances hard.
We had Enchiladas for lunch. S has started training for a new job every evening so we have switched the main meal to lunchtime. have a left over chicken breast that I will use to make something tomorrow.
Sat now listening to an audiobook and having a small bum wedged into my ribs by bump.
