The Sun is Shining...the weather is sweet yeah!

Bit of reggae for you there ;)

Not been and posted for a couple of days due to the glorious weather we're getting at the moment. I thought April was renouned for showers? Not this week! Yesterday me and hubby went to Cannon Hall Gardens for a nice stroll and an ice-cream. I struggled a little with the strolling and we kept having to find a bench but it was totally worth the pain. Beautiful days like that with the one you love puts life into perspective and you seem to appreciate it more.

We did the same today, a nice walk and an ice-cream followed by lunch in an old hotel/ pub restaurant (where we got married none the less!) that has been refurbished. Simply divine. Oh, we called to visit my mother bear this morning too. Not seen her in a while and while parents are made to annoy you, the trick is if you don't see them THAT often they annoy you a little less! She's knitted a lovely blanket for Baby Lewis and sorted some of my nephews clothes out for us which was nice. Also got a nice little basket of practical goodies from my favourite auntie and uncle.

I'm getting REALLY excited for bump to arrive now. We are 34 +1 today so if he decides to try and come early again I'll be happy :) Everytime someone asks when I'm due they look completely shocked when I tell them the end of May as aparently, I look ready to POP! I ought to be in the nursery sorting his things out ready for his arrival but on a day like today I'd much rather lounge around and relax. Plus, hubby is in bed as he's on night's tonight so that's a pretty good excuse not to do anything.

Recently been thinking a lot about friends or rather the lack of friends I/we have. We both have friends but we never seem to see much of them anymore. I guess it's due to us being the only married couple. I lost a friend to jealousy recently. She didn't like the fact I was married with a baby on the way and was constantly sniping at me. In the end, I figured if a friend makes you feel rubbish, they aren't that much of a friend. My best friend in the whole wide world forever and ever BFFL (best friend for life) is Batman. Her actual name is Robyn but for as long as I can remember I've called her Batman. Imaginative, I know. We have literally known each other all our lives. She's younger than I am, she's 20 not that it matters. I don't see her too much because, like me she is settled down (not married) she lives with her girlfriend who is older than I am by a couple of years but they are a fantastic match. In my opinion, men SERIOUSLY dipped out when Batman finally admitted she was lesbian. She's gorgeous :) I'm hoping now my maternity leave has started, we'll see a little more of each other because I miss her. If and when baby Lewis is christened, she will be his godmother without question. We've already booked her for babysitting in October when we go see Lee Evans!!!

My other friend is my older sister Keira, I see lots more of her now I'm on maternity leave and live closer to her. It's nice having a sister you can consider a friend. I just wish me and hubby had a few more friends, probably more mature friends as most of our friends our own age are only into going round town on the razz, whereas we much prefer quiet pubs with background music and a good chat. Maybe we are old before our years???
