The End Of 2012...

So, It's been a while....
The last one was me moaning about when Harry wanted to make an appearance, as he was 4 days over due...the real story was...he was 14 days overdue..I was planned to go in to be induced at 9pm on Tuesday 16th October; but at 1am I went into natural labour, and he was placed in my arms at 5:50am, weighing a whooping 9lb5oz, that same morning. Thinking back to it, literally makes me well up with tears!! I enjoyed my labour, definitely more than my pregnancy...but I'm sure that wont stop us having another one in about 4 years time. 

We were out by 6.30pm that evening, after all the family coming in to see the new arrival, after his hearing tests, after all the nurses and midwifes cooing at him, and after many cuddles from his mummy and daddy. We came home to many balloons, cards, and all of his stuff all ready for him. We had a sneaky take away and sitting there watching Emmerdale just felt so surreal that we now had Harry with us watching it too!! 
He is now a big 3+1/2 months old, sleeping through the night from 8pm-10am, already trying to lift his head, try and sit up, giggling and smiling all the time, and he is such a joy to be around. 

Once we had him, most people would settle down from all the planning and list writing and it'd be time to enjoy having a newborn baby around...no not us, we had a wedding to plan for 12th December, 8 weeks later!.. The lists continued, the planning carried on, the stress built up, but I never missed a trick our baby Harry did..
12/12/12 arrived, and after a horrible rainy cloudy week, we had the most beautiful sunset just as we were having our pictures taken. We both thought the day our little Harry was born would be the best day of our lives, we were wrong..it turned out to be that the day we got married with Harry there in our lives watching us was the best day of our lives.
After all that happening, two weeks later we had our first Christmas as a married couple and as parents. It was a very lovely day, and we shared it with my family in the morning and then the hubby's family in the evening. It was amazing spending it with everybody and we all got very very spoilt!!
The past 3+1/2 months have gone so quick, so much has happened and I have not been able to get on here much, but now things are slowing down this year, all we have to plan this year is little monsters Christening which we have planned and booked, and it's not until June!.

Alot of my friends are doing a picture a day a year, but I'm going to try for February, a picture a day and to do something different each day with Harry . It will be tough, but it will also be very fun to do :). As he is growing up rather quickly, it'll be very fun to do :)
That's a catch up of what we've been up to since the last blog & we will be on here very regular from now on. Thank you for reading x
