I’m not sure if you heard, but last Saturday was the CyberMummy11 bloggers’ conference. (Yeeeeeeeeees, I was being sarcastic…)
And due to unforseen difficulties convincing Lil Sis to drink from a bottle, it was also the first time in 9 months I’d spent an entire night away from her – leaving me torn between screaming: ‘Yes, God, I’m free! I’m finally free!!!!’, and worrying that she’d go on a formula strike, refuse to drink a drop, and collapse in a small, sobbing, dehydrated heap.
Then, around lunchtime, I received this pic from OH, along with the message: Girls both fine… the three of us all fell asleep for half an hour… someone still sleeping!
Which is why this photo symbolises ‘My Weekend’… as it’s the moment that I knew for sure that Lil Sis would be just fine without me.
The first time in nearly a year that I could really switch off from being ‘Mummy’ and, for a few hours at least, just be ‘Me’ again. And, my God, it was lovely.
But it was just as nice to go home too…
Awwww what a cutie!
Nothing nicer than a sleeping baby, I always say. Apart from a screaming one that you’re not having to deal with, of course. Sounds like you had a great time.
that is such a reasuring photo alright!
What a lovely picture, so pleased you got to have some valuable you time (even though I am not talking to any of you, I am far too jealous!)… Emma 🙂
