Hey everyone! Well Lucas has started waking for feeds again the last two nights so back to the beloved BB at this early hour. I can never go back to bed once I’m up, much to the frustration of DF. Hey DF, that’s cool, I almost typed DP! We got engaged last weekend!

He has been away all week though which has been yuck this time around. I enjoyed it last time, found it really relaxing for some strange reason, but this time I’ve just wanted him to come home. He gets home today but only for the weekend, then he has some meeting 5 hours away on Monday so will be away again for the night.

I gave Lucas his first taste of rice cereal on wednesday. I did some research over the last week though as he is really only 3.5months corrected, so I won’t be giving him any more until Saturday to give his gut the chance to make some enzymes needed to digest the food, just to be sure. He has been pooing like a trooper still, which is great, and I might try him on some pumpkin if I can buy an organic over the weekend.

Nicky ~ so sorry to hear about your MIL, cancer is a terrible thing and you have to put all your trust in the doctors and the treatments, which are advancing all the time.

Raels ~ sorry to hear about your own mum passing from cancer, I lost my brother Lucas this year to leukemia, when I was 10 weeks pg. I named my DS after him and he was also born on his Uncle Lucas’ birthday.

Mel ~ I only get emails notices every now and then too so its not just you!

Emma ~ How did your haircut go? Did you go the big chop? I put my tree up last weekend for Lucas as I just knew he would love the lights and coloured trinkets which he does!

Jo ~ My little merry christmas sign on the front door seemed to start a bit of a chain reaction and lights and decorations have popped up everywhere this week, especially across the road. Will you put yours up this weekend?

Well I better get going for now, but will try and get back for some more personals at some stage!

Love August x
