I sat there so proud of my babies. It was such a great feeling.

Ceiennas First Bath

Tonight we gave Ceienna her first bath.

We put her baby bath in front of the fire, we kept the one we had when we had Kellyn, Its a special one that Nanny bought that supports the baby.

Ceienna seemed to like it and Kellyn helped wash her down to. It was so lovely to see her there.

She is so tiny and cute.

Ceiennas first day out

Today was Ceiennas first outing. We went to meet Daddy in town ready to go and register Ceienna's birth.

I Got Kellyn ready and he then watched me get Ceienna ready. I was changing her bum and she weed and wet all her clothes so i had to strip her wash her and start again. never mind.

Once i got her ready i put her in her car seat and took her out to the car. I put Ceienna in first them Kellyn he was pleased to see his little sister sitting next to him in the back of the car. as i reversed the car down the bank it dawned on me that less than 48 hours ago i gave birth to my little girl on our bed and now things where sinking back to a new normal and i was back driving again like nothing had happened. i was quite pleased with myself.

We got to town and met Daddy. I was really excited about trying out the new Pushchair which myself and Kellyn collected from West Kirby. She looked so small in there and Kellyn the opposite looked so massive.

We walked up town together i pushed the pushchair it was great. Really pleased with it.

We went to the registry office where we named her officially as Ceienna Jennier McHugh. The excitement building up inside me along with the pride of sitting there with my beautiful little girl.

Ceiennas First Day

Ceiennas First Morning View.

Wednesday 19th November brought Ceiennas first morning. It was wonderful to wake up in our own bed with our beautiful baby Daughter lying between us. She looked so peaceful and Beautiful. After getting up and wandering down stairs to make us all a drink Both Daddy and Ceienna where waking up. Ceienna was ready for another feed. By 7:30 Kellyn had arrived home with Nanny. Daddy went out to the car to meet them. He picked up Kellyn and told him there was someone in the house to see him. I stood there with Ceienna in my arms so pleased to see my wonderful little boy who had now become Big Brother. Kellyn greeted his sister with a big beaming smile and kept saying "Baby Baby" He was so excited and couldn't wait to hold her himself. He came into the living room and sat in the corner of the sofa waiting to hold her. He just looked at her a smiled. Then he just had to show her his favourite toys. The morning drifted on and the Midwife came and went finding nothing wrong with either Ceienna or myself. It was a lovely slow day getting to know our little girl.

Ceiennas First Evening View.

When it came to bed time Kellyn helped get her ready for bed he helped to wash her and to change her and he pulled the blanket over her after Daddy placed her in her cot. It was so wonderful to see.

Kellyn Takes Over McDonalds

Kellyn and Daddy took over the floor at Mcdonalds today when Daddy bought Kellyn a new train set. Kellyn instantly fell in love with the set and when we called in at Mcdonald,s could not bare the thought of his new set being left in the car so daddy had to carry the box into to the resturant where Kellyn found us a table and a quite spot so he could examine the contents. He soon covered the table in trains and then pulled Daddy onto the floor to play trains and build track.

It was so funny i laughed all the way through breakfast.

Kellyn's Ojo Experience

Last night Kellyn felt Ojo move for the first time he also saw my tummy moving. He found it so funny, we all sat laughing together for ages. and Kellyn was fascinated at seeing and feeling Ojo moving around. Least it wont be much longer before Ojo arrives as ojo is due today.

Family Afternoon out

Yesterday we met up in Shrewsbury for a family afternoon. First we went to Pizza Hut for Dinner, Unfortunatley Kellyn slept through being there so it turned out to be a lovely meal for the two of us, It was nice to spend some time together. After dinner we took Kellyn for a wander around Toys R Us. He really enjoys going and trying out the cars and bikes. The afternoon went far to quick so we headed home and spent time playing together untill bed time.

Fun in the Leaves

This morning Kellyn and i enjoyed the Autumn sunshine playing in the leaves. We had lots of fun kicking them and listening to the noise they make and throwing them at each other.

We love playing in the garden and i especially love this time of year there is so much more fun things to do, and soon all being well we will be joined by our other baby, and we cant wait.

Birkenhead & Wrexham Family Outing

This morning Daddy decided the family where heading to his home town Birkenhead. So we got ready and jumped in the car.

First we called in at a pet centre where Kellyn could see the Rabbits, Mice, Ginnie Pigs and Fish we also looked around the impressive water features that was there, Before getting into the car and visiting a few more places along the way.
Next stop was a lovely place Raby Mere where Daddy took Kellyn to see the Ducks and Geese. we then headed to look at the River Mersey and take in Views of Liverpool.








Our next stop was a fab dinner which Kellyn decided mine looked better so we swapped, but it was still nice.
After we had refueled we visited Port Sunlight before heading back down the motorway where our next stop was Ty Mawr park.



We all had a lovely time here, Kellyn found a little boy and girl to play with and we had a fab time playing on the see saw, before we went out to look at the animals in the park.

Kellyn loved the Ginnie Pigs and the Goats most but the highlight of the visit for him was seeing a train rushing over the Cefn Viaduct.

This was a lovely visit and we have decided we will be going again once Ojo has arrived (only days left now).
