Little Bits Of Nothing
As said before life is kinda blah just now, nothing really amazing going on although the weather has perked up the last few days so just maybe summer is arriving in Scotland at last. As I’m sure most of you have i have been busy the last few days reading the last Harry Potter ,as i only started reading the series a few months back it was the first one i read at the same time as others. What did i think of DH - LOVED IT , for me it was a wonderful and satisfying ending although i didn’t really need the last chapter .
I feel i have barely anytime on the computer at the moment, I’m trying to finally sort
all my pictures out properly - quick edits and upload to my new flikr pro account (Big Thanks to the staff at Flickr for the free gift due to payment problems with the UK) . Between than , replying to emails and reading blogs i have no time LOL.
The girls are doing well as usual, Eilidh still doing this separation anxiety thing and not sleeping the greatest (of course she slept through fine one night then not the next grr) BUT each day she does get a little closer to walking and loves to walk about holding just one of our hands, she stands by herself all the time (but the minute she knows she is doing it falls of course). She is such a talkative thing and along with the constant shouts of mummy are dada , babas (which may or may not mean Becca) and her latest Hiya.
Rebecca seems to be changing every day just now, she is so funny and has an opinion about everything. She seems to have rules for everything (such as must have two yoghurt’s, ice poles etc..) and hates change of routine. Her speech while not clear is expanding - my favorite of late is when she was sitting (like a big girl - on our couch to save for mess) eating a yogurt and watching tellytubbies on tv . DH and i started talking and every so politely told us to shhh , how nice :).
We recently swapped out toys around (keep two big toy boxes under Eilidhs cot and swap them with the ones out for them to play with every couple of months)and she is loving any sort of shape sorters, she is so good at them and the other day was searching around everywhere looking for the “angle , angle ,angle” (Otherwise known as the triangle) , she is definitely starting to understand colours,shapes and numbers but will only demonstrate when she is in the mood.
Im thinking at least a small part of my problem may be wanting another child, crazy i know and just now is so not the right time. BUT its on my mind alot, Rebecca was the same age Eilidh is now when i got pregnant again and i think the age difference between them is wonderful . Every time someone announces a pregnancy while i am truefully happy for them im extremely jealous also, i do love my girls and if that’s all im every blessed with i will still be so lucky but it doest seem to stop the yearning.

I get baby-pangs every so often too! I know that there’s NO way that we could handle another right now, but when you watch your little ones grow up so fast, it sure is tempting to have another little baby around.

ahh baby envy… haha. I know how that goes- that’s why we decided to have Matthew. I hope that I don’t get that itch again in the next year. We decided we would wait 2 years or so for the next one. We’ll see! haha.
good luck!

I’m sorry you’re still feeling a little down…I definitely can relate to the baby fever. Part of me wants another one SO badly, but at the same time I know right now is not the right time for us. I don’t know if we’ll ever have another, and that makes me sad. I’m always thrilled to hear about other peoepl’s pregnancies - and there have been a lot lately! - but part of me wishes it were me. But, Nadia is so amazing and I couldn’t ask for a better child! and it sounds like your girls are so wonderful, too. Before you know it you’ll have *two* running around. :o)
