Ok, so to start with, I accidently dropped my phone out of the pram on my way up to see my mum, I get half way up the hill, turn around and see some guy picking it up and walking off. Then, as i'm about to run down to him, I trip over Theo's shoe, picking it up i notice his other one has gone and seeing that the guy's disappeared i decide to look for the shoe. I mean he could have picked up anything off the floor right?
Anyway, Theo's kicking up the hugest of fusses ever, kicking, crying and screaming (can't blame him as he has four teeth coming through at once), so that didn't help. Realising i can't find his tiny shoe i race back down the hill and start frantically searching for my phone, knowing that Michael (the bf) will be calling me in an hour from the other side of town. After half an hour i switch my brain on and call mum, asking her to phone my phone because, being as stupid as i am, i can't remember the mobile number i've had for about 4, maybe 5 years, So she tries to call then calls me back. Meanwhile i've been running round on tiptoes, trying to keep Theo quiet so I can hear it, to no avail.
So my phone was gone as was Theo's shoe. Not a good start to the day or week either for that matter.
I should have guessed from the state of that first day that things would continue on the same note, if not lower.
My Aunt had decided to get married over in Cyprus and, with Theo being so young, I couldn't go which was a shame. But it meant that most of my family had gone. That sucked but I was happy for them. She was finally getting married after planning it for over a year
. It was no big supprise, with almost everyone being on holiday, that i only got a few birthday cards this year. The first was ironic, from my mother. It was ironic in the fact that I had bought it for her to give to my little sister, Millie as I still hadn't gone into laybor at the time. When I did finally give birth it was on Millie's birthday so no one got a chance to write it out so naturally my mum saved it for me. Great stuff! I might as well have bought it for myself. then there was a card (litterally) from my little sis, i should put it on here some time, its so cute and she did draw it herself <3. I received another from the bf's mother and one more from my sister and aunt once they were home from Cyprus.
While my Aunt and family were in Cyprus I did enjoy staying at one Aunt's house, dog sitting a 15 year old staffie called Prince (and treated as such too). We took nice walks out near some fields with horses and ponies in and i took some lovely pictures too
While staying there I took a nasty fall down her stairs, badly grazing my knee as i was carrying Theo at the time. God only knows how I managed to keep him from getting hurt but in the process I almost did the splits... resulting in damaging an already fragile hip (fragile due to being kicked by a horse when i was around 12-14 years old). Needless to say it hurt to walk for a while but I'm a.o.k now.
And finally, four days ago I accidently Knocked some white paint over onto our beige carpet in a very noticeable place (well i wouldn't do it on purpose would i?)
so yeah, the past four weeks have been hell. the only good things have been the amazing picture kami-sama drew for me <3 the piccys i took of the horses and theo's good health.
