Hello All!

Telly: I thought i just wanted 3 kids but i'm not so sure now! I'm from a big family (I have 7 sisters and 1 brother) and we all had a great time growing up. My poor DD was an only child for the first 10 years and i don't want Archie to be lonely like she was. He'll always have her but the age gap is so big he'll feel like an only child iykwim? Soooo i dunnnoooo! Maybe 3, maybe 4 or maybe we'll do a brad and angie and adopt one from every country in the world!! I'll just keep my options open..
Brittney is adapting better than i thought she would! She is a real mummy's girl but she doesn't mind sharing me at all... i think if Archie was a girl it might be a different story! She likes being the only girl! She is sooo good with him! She is really maternal, always looking after people's little ones and she loves animals and is generally a really caring girl so she is great with the baby. She helps to put him to sleep, dress him and change his nappy. I'm pretty lucky really! She is a great help!!

AFM: I've had a really sad day today. Brit is really into her ponies. We have three here at the moment, one of which is on lease. He is the only one she can ride cos the other pony is 32 this year and can't be ridden anymore and the third is a big horse. He is the most beautiful pony, an angel.. never puts a foot wrong. We have leased this pony for the last two years (he is worth ALOT of money, not something we could afford right now) and knew he had to go eventually but we got the phone call the other day and he has to go on the 20th of this month... Brit is DEVASTATED to say the least.. She cannot stop crying! She wants to leave home so she doesn't have any reminders of him cos she'll be too sad! It is so horrible.. she is so distraught and there is not a thing i can do about it! And the worst thing is that he is being transported over to Qld so we will probably never see him again.
So i have spent the day consoling a ten year old, a six week old and then promptly bursting into tears myself

Had Archie weighed today and he now weighs 5560g which is great. Can't believe how fast they grow. I'll have to put up some recent pics of him on FB.
Does everyone's babies still have the hard lumps under the nipples? I am worried Archie might have mastitis in his left one cos it seems as though it is getting bigger. The Child health nurse said it did feel a bit larger than what she'd expect so has told me to keep an eye on it.
Is anyone else still bleeding? I thought it had stopped but apparently not!

Sorry for poor me post....
Have a lovely night x x x
