I shouldn’t have
on December 27th, 2007 in General by Kerry | 11 Comments(Dan still can’t face blogging so I thought I’d let him off for one more night) I shouldn’t have said “Yes, I’ll take photos at your family party” when it was dark and rainy and I had to use flash I shouldn’t have watched War of the Worlds on Christmas…

on June 17th, 2007 in General by Kerry | 6 CommentsAmy and I were talking about what to buy Dan for father’s day. “Playmobil.” she said after thinking for a moment, “But boys’ playmobil, not girls’ ones.” (She was right of course. The only reason Amy has playmobil is because Dan really wanted it for himself.) So boys’ playmobil it…

on April 22nd, 2007 in General by Kerry | 3 CommentsEvan turned 6 months old on Friday. It doesn’t feel that long ago and yet, it feels like he’s always been here. It’s very different the second time around, we’re not trying to see if he’s a genius by reaching developmental milestones early. Not that we obsessed over them with…

on February 1st, 2007 in General by Kerry | 15 CommentsToday is Dan’s 31st birthday so Amy and I made him a cake. Amy wanted Dan to have a rainbow and clouds, like her cake did. She also wanted slugs and snails and worms, as she and Dan have a running gag about making each other eat them. Here is…

on December 16th, 2006 in General by Kerry | 1 CommentGranny (Dan’s mum) took Amy, Evan and I on the Kirklees Light Railway today on a special trip to visit Father Christmas. The train, full of overexcited children, pulled up at its destination to be greeted by two young ladies playing christmas carols on their clarinets. As we heard the…

on December 7th, 2006 in General by Kerry | 8 CommentsI’m pleased to say that Evan has been discharged from the hospital tonight so we are at home at last. He’d managed to stay off the oxygen today so the Doctor said we could go home when I was ready. The last few days haven’t been that bad but it’s…

on November 29th, 2006 in General by Kerry | 5 CommentsI’ve been trying to spend more time with Amy as I know Evan has a lot of my attention these days. We had a nice afternoon together, doing arty things whilst Dan and Evan had a nap upstairs. After giving Evan his next feed, Amy and I went on a…
