I'm Back!

I am diving back in the land of blogging. It's been awhile but I felt it was time to start again. I tried word press for a little while but it annoyed me, then I gave up on blogging altogether but I've had the urge to start writing down all my thoughts again...so here I am!

Our little man (H) is almost 8 months old. How time flies when you are having fun! He is the light of my life and I am enjoying my time at home with him immensely...I am really dreading the thought of going back to work in January (but that's a post for another time). 

H is now on the move (scary) and commando crawling with style. He is so fast! No teeth. Enjoying solids (we are doing BLW) and trying lots of new foods. We do swimming lessons once a week and he is a water baby. I am still breast feeding on demand. Day naps don't happen often, but he's a champion sleeper at night and at the moment he sleeps 12-14 hours!! H is a really happy and relaxed baby and generally just goes with the flow. He is super determined and I think he may be an early walker as he always wants to be moving...

DH is enjoying being a daddy. He is still working away from home. 2 weeks on 2 weeks off. He does miss us both while he is away, but he really enjoys his job. This lifestyle works for us but I understand it's not for everyone. We enjoy his time home and get lots of family time. Last week we went away on a week holiday to the Whitsundays and it was wonderful. Our first family holiday! We all had a lovely time and if DH was working a regular job it probably wouldn't have been something we could have done. It's lovely watching DH with H. They have so much fun together.

And me...as I said before, I'm loving being a mummy. There is no job that compares. I'm due back to work in January but I'm trying to figure out if there's a way for me to have more time off..or just not go back at all. I really would rather be home until H starts school...not sure if it's feasible at this stage but we'll see. I do not miss work at all though!!

My days pass quickly. H and I go to playgroup, swimming lessons and a mothers group meet up once a week. I try and catch up with my sister and parents at least once a week as they love to see H. Then of course when DH is home we spend time with him. And then I need to fit the housework in somewhere too...so weeks fly by! 

So that's a bit of an update in a nutshell.
