New Stuff!

Wow! I have had the most exciting news this month!.......my best girlfriend Lisa is expecting her first baby!!!! I am soooo excited for her and Daddy Stuart, they are going to make the best parents. I am now going to get busy organising her Baby Shower over the next couple of months. Have I said that I am SUPER EXCITED!!!!! :D

On another good note, Ben is crawling really well now and is going to be 1 on the 29th April! I can't believe that it has been a year already since he came out looking sooo cute! oh he still is of course ;) He hair is changing colour yet again, he is now going strawberry blond! oh well one out of 4 isn't bad.....mmmm I hope he will be more blond than a redhead, but he is gorgeous no matter what colour hair he has

Sam is going to be changing school soon as the bullying has been worse than normal so Mark and I decided that it isn't fair on him so we are looking for a new school so that he can have a fresh start

Joe took his test for the local Grammer School yesterday and we now just have to wait, he doesn't think he has done well but I said that as long as he did his best that is all we can ask of him, so here's fingers crossed for that

Tim will find out next month what school he will be going to in September, I can't believe he will be going to school soon, it doesn't seem like yesterday that he was Ben's age! soooo scary how fast it has gone...time that is!

With regards to the house things are looking up so I am feeling alot more positive now than before. I know that things happen for a reason so I know it was a test, so here's to the next few months

On a down note Mark is being made redundant on 2nd April so he is looking for a new job now, but I have said that I don't really want to go back to work as I think that I have changed a lot and want to be at home for the kids now, but I have said that if a job comes before he gets one then I will do it, but would really prefer not too, but who knows what is around the corner

Anyway TTFN & here's to lots of Chocolate at Easter!!!! well not for me of course ;)

Update

So today I was shocked to hear that my idol as a teen has died at the age of 38! Corey Haim was a part of the 80's teen scene and was a fixture on my wall! It makes you realise that life is soo short to take things for granted

Well on a happier note things have started to improve, Joe's diagnosis is making a lot of things make sense now and also we are getting help with the financial situation as well which is making me feel a whole lot better.

Oh a super fab note Ben is now crawling forwards!!!! I am sooo proud! It first happened on my birthday which was the best present I could have asked for, he is getting so big so quick, but he is still a absolute gem and such a cutie!

I had photos taken of him yesterday in Boots and there is also a 'face of mini mode' competition so I decided to put Ben in for that as I think he would do well, but then again you never know who they will be up against, but here's to having everything crossed
