    How can you find so many things that need doing when someone is due to look over the house? Oh well, the surveyor has been and gone so hopefully we will get our remortgage.

    The telly is still dusty because DH was busy watching Star Wars when he arrived :(

    As usual, not off to a bad start. Baby just having a nap, and i'm just sitting with a cup of hot chocolate, as i know he'll want feeding as soon as he wakes. He's made me a proud mummy today as he rolled over for the first time. I get the feeling my fun is about to start, and i certainly won't be able to leave him on the bed while i just do.... anymore. ;)

    Well done baby!! It is lovely isn't it seeing them do new things, they try so hard and all of a sudden they can roll over... you are right, your fun is about to start..

    Michelle - I remember when DS rolled over - VERY EXCITING (yes first time parent alert!). Don't forget to record dates of firsts as they'll start to come thick and fast.

    Michelle . . . he was only born YESTERDAY (so it seems) - isn't he doing well :)
