This and that
Jan. 5th, 2011 09:56 pm2011 already! I hope everyone had a great Christmas and New Year!
My parents came for Christmas, which was nice. Unfortunately most of us were ill in one way or another, so the food went somewhat unappreciated! (I was on antibiotics by that point!) Still, we had a good day and managed to get Aedan to nap while we watched the Dr Who special! ;)
He got so.many.presents. it was ridiculous! It was far too much for one day, so I spaced it out. On Jan 3rd he finally opened the last one! My house now looks like Toys R Us. And it's his birthday in 3 weeks. O.o
New Year was ok too, we went to my Inlaws and stayed a couple of days. Their neighbours - who used to be *our* neighbours and so are old friends - came over and we had dinner and watched Big Ben ring it in on TV. Quiet, but enjoyable.
Had a midwife appointment yesterday and we heard the heartbeat! She wasn't sure if she'd be able to find it, since 16 weeks it still pretty early, but Baby was being co-operative. :)
Aedan, unfortunately, wasn't. He behaved himself in the midwife's office, but back in reception, threw a temper tantrum when we tried to get his coat back on. It's the first time he's done that in public and was so embarassing. :( I hope we can get it into him that tantrums don't work soon!
While I'm talking babies, a big CONGRATULATIONS! to
trekqueen who is due June 28th and
oloriel who is due mid July! It's an LJ baby boom!
Hmmm, that's about it. I'm working on my slashy valentine fic, though haven't got very far as yet. The request is ok, but I'm just struggling to find a plot. I'm out of practice!
