long loooong overdue

So. I'm back.
Not just 'back from lunch'
Or 'back from holiday'
I'm back from a very long blogging break.
During this semi underground time I...

  • put on a LOT of weight
  • lost (most of) it when I gave birth to my son Jack, who weighed an unexpected 11lb 3oz
  • made the decision to give up work for a while to stay at home with Jack
  • learnt some tough lessons about being a mum...
  • ...and some fun ones!
  • surprisingly managed to find time to craft, including making Jack's baby book which is still not quite finished
  • watched a lot of daytime TV
  • experienced a lot of Jacks' 'firsts' including first smile, first tooth, first Halloween & first Christmas...with many more to come

and appreciated just how lucky I am to have my perfect little family


I've been meaning to get back to blogging, get back in touch with people, and before I knew it here was 2009 and we were on the home stretch towards Jack's first birthday. I just can't believe where the time has gone. So back to keeping in touch is my new February's resolution - not one to usually make new year resolutions as I only break them, perhaps starting one in February will help me keep this one!

I'll leave with a picture of my little man enjoying his first touch of snow today :)
