I’m up late after watching Big Brother begin and all the housemates entering the Big Brother house for the summer.

I now have to muster some energy and finish my packing, as I am heading off to Liverpool tomorrow for my sisters Hen weekend.

I am really looking forward to the wee hoilday, though I am a bit nervous about leaving all three children for so long, especially the baby. He is cutting his top two teeth and has been grumpy and unsettled all week.  On top of that we are still breastfeeding quite a lot, and although he does get the odd bottle if I have to go out, he has never went without nursing for more than a few hours before.

In my head I know he’ll be ok, and so will I, as long as I remember to pack my breast pump!

I am most looking forward to not having to worry about what time I go to bed at, as I don’t have to get up early the next morning. I am also planning to have at least one afternoon nap, as I never get to sleep during the day anymore.

My other sister is the unofficial chief bridesmaid and is organising the whole affair. I don’t want to go into too many details in case the bride to be happens upon this, but lets just say there will be lots of fun and laughs to be had, probably lots of embarrassment too!

Its hard to believe that six years ago I was a bride to be. Now three children later and I can hardly manage to remember my wedding anniversary!
