Visit to Liverpool!

Hi everyone,
Not long got back from Liverpool and after a long soak in bath am now catching up with some tv and household chores, at the same time.
We went up to Liverpool on Thursday and got to meet out lovely tiny niece Erin (can't believe Martha was that small once!) she is gorgeous and so peaceful- well when we have seen her she has been!
We also did some xmas and birthday present shopping- mad I know but we have a couple of months of it starting next month with 5 family birthdays all in December!!! Plus it means we have left some in Liverpool and don't have to pack them in the car with everything else a baby travels with these days!! Also it helps to spread the cost a bit!
Got to see all of Liams family, Mums and Dads sides and had fun with both, Martha had a couple of whinges but on the whole was the good little girl she always is! She is fantastic and is a pleasure round everyone.
Saw Dawn this morning and Martha gave her quite a long and enquiring look- don' t worry Dawn she does it to most people!
Pictures will be put up when I have time but for now its chores and TV!!!
Check back soon for pics!

A niece!

Well as you can read from the title I have a new niece, Jens baby was born early hours of Tuesday morning with a fairly quick delviery after she had to be induced as there was meconium in the waters. Erin Catherine was 7lb 9ozs and is a little cutie. Liam, Martha and I are going upto Liverpool next week to see them all, we are also hoping to catch up with a few friends whilst we are there too.
First week back in school was ok and my class seem fine at the moment. No real major problems I don't think. Martha has settled in well into the nursery although routine wise, they tend to do their own thing even though they have asked us what her routine is!? Why bother if they are going to do what they want. I get lots of smiles and cuddles when I pick her up and there are no tears when Liam drops her off either.
Had a busy day, caught up with a little bit ofg sleep and then saw my NCT friends which was nice, all the babies are so grown up now, its time for baby number twos now - I wonder who will be first- can't imagine it will be Kathy or Vinni as they both have twins. We shall see!!!
Tomorrow I have tiny talk which will be good and then we have the start of swimming course number three in the afternoon, its a weekend of swimming which is a reason we couldn't go to Liverpool this weekend. Looking forward to that and then out tomorrow night and a friend round Sat night. Its all go here! Anyway thats it for now will be in touch soon and hopefully have some new photos to show you of little Erin!
