The day we got the keys!!

At last we have got the keys and the mortgage....it's been a long 3 years in our 1 bed flat but we have come this far and now ready for the big move. James and Johnny will love our new home and we will do everything we can to make sure they are happy. So exciting coming down on the train and getting in a taxi and finally stopping to pick up the keys and then open the door. Now for the renovations!!! Looking like a lovely little family home!

Finally Finlay

We got home in good spirits -which is rare these days. 'i love you mum' are the best words i have ever heard.  After weeks of dragging and wailing and sorrows - it is so nice to feel that all has been forgiven and life could well be on the up. 


James was perching on the boob as I friend chicken and propped him up with one leg resting on the handle of the cooker. He had a snooze and was so much happier when he woke up. 


Anyway - i just want to say that I am so glad we met a boy for johnny to play with and he is very lovely. Born 4 days before Johnny they even share the same eye colour. A very lovely boy!!!


Potty progress - slow but steady!! HURRAY for a pee in the park!!!

Spring is in the air....

I sat in the garden yesterday in the sun and felt tired but happy. Months have now passed and the dust has just about settled in the house but it will soon be time to start the big rebuild. johnny and James are both recovering from every sort of bug and virus that went. 

We have now made some lovely friends and Johnny has made a few key fellow park scooter riders.......but far more importantly some very cute girls to hang out with......the lovely Sanna and Harper.....he even has a type...james is pretty much into me and my hugs and milk.

I am still missing Islington, and not just the people, Fern, katie, Sara, the boys, BRooksby st but the squares at dusk, the railings, the beautiful houses and the walk by the canal. I went to London last monday for an emergency dentist treatment and just walked up Judd st and through the Brunswick Centre and up Lamb Conduit st and I felt such a deep wave of sadness. I thought long and hard about this sadness. where was it coming from and then I just remembered that this is where I used to walk and cycle when I was in my 20's and how care free and explorative my life was. It all made sense. i miss being curious and creative and excited by life. i miss being 27. But what i have now is so beautiful that i must make my eyes widen to the beauty right under my nose and enjoy, explore and create. Enough sentimentality and it is time to get productive.
