The weekend and monday

I hope all you readers (if any) had a good weekend and the weather was not too bad where you were.

Saturday - My sister  threw my niece a birthday party, she turned 2 the day before. So dragged myself and hubby to that. I say dragged because, well my mum was going to be there, and well we don't really see eye to eye. I don't agree with the way she lives her life and she can't be arsed with me. The whole time I was pregnant with my son we spoke once, and that was because we had bumped into each other at a shopping centre. While I was planning my wedding, which was being planned over a course of 2 years, we spoke twice. She knew for well, that I was working 2 jobs and in college full time, so she knew she had the evenings to contact me.

Anyway back to Saturday. So I get to my sister's and there my mum was, it was the most awkward most uncomfortable situation I have ever been in. My son is now 8 months and that was the first time she had seen him.

We only stayed an hour as we had a wedding reception to go to. Which I had been looking forward to for awhile, as it was a friend's of mine and it had been a few months since we last saw each other. She looked stunning. Lovely big white dress, and silver shoes. How she could walk in them I don't know. They must have been 6inch heels.

We spent the night at hubby's parents as it saved him having to drive us home.

Sunday - Well the clocks went back and surprisingly my little dealt really well with it. He woke up at about 6, so hubby got up and made him his bottle, he then played for a little while and went back to sleep. I woke up just before 10. This pregnancy really had taken it out of me, i'm always tired at the moment, but that might have something to do with my iron level. I have low iron and should be taking tablets for them, but naughty me doesn't.

I went shopping with the in-laws while hubby took our son to his granma's to make sure she didn't need anything, as we had a storm due that night. she knew nothing of the storm and her being her said she didn't need anything and that she would be alright. while hubby was doing that, I brought my first baby buy for baby number 2. A blue mosey basket bedding set.

Monday - We had our storm. It flooded the main road, it was pretty windy this morning and a few trees on the way to hubby's work had fallen down. I think we were pretty lucky compared to some areas of my home county Hampshire. The Isle of White got it pretty bad. some areas saw 90mph winds. The worst storm we've had in years the news has said. So far 4 people have died. From what I have heard the storm of 87 was worse then that, but we haven't really had a storm since, so yea I guess you can say the storm we've just had is the worse we've had in years. At least this time we had a warning, they didn't then.

I made home made chunky chicken soup today. My son seemed to enjoy it, he struggled a bit with the chicken though. but he's 8 months so he's not use to chunks. I am one happy mummy though, he enjoyed something I made from scratch.
