I'm hoping so but can we confirm later this week? Back at Dr on Monday. He is looking better today compared to yesterday. Apparently he is contagious for 3-5 days but will check with Dr on Monday x

So last night was good fun, we ended up ordering an Indian takeaway, which was delicious, and of course there was wine and a slice of birthday cake!
Had every intention of being good today but I've had a tough day...

Spent the day with my friend, who's just lost her husband to cancer, and whilst it was really nice to see her, catch up, etc it was really tough too, she's doing so well considering and I'm so proud of her...
It really hits home how lucky I am to have my wonderful Paul and even more so, to have my little boy, when she was telling me about how it all happened with James...
I was really strong for her all day, lots of hugs, etc... But as I soon as I got into my car to drive home, I just burst into tears... Got in and once Paul and Oliver came home, had lots of cuddles... Did Oliver's bath and bottle, put him to bed after lots more cuddles...
I'm a very lucky woman xx

So my scales are showing 1lb on this morning... Not surprised as I've had a few tough emotional days and wine has been my best friend lol!!
Decided today is a fast day and most likely tomorrow too... Going to pop to Tesco soon (once the rain clears!) and see what ready meals they've got.... Hoping to get my boy weighed too, but depends on if the rain stops this morning...
He's been catching up on his sleep as on Friday night he stayed up until midnight, little party animal!!
We was at our friends house, their little girl was asleep, so Oliver could have slept in her bouncer, but he likes to move around and there was so much to see, he fought sleep!
So he slept until 8 Saturday morning and spent the day at his nanna's and didn't get many naps in, so Saturday night he went to bed at 7:30 and didn't wake until 8:30 Sunday morning!!
And then yesterday he had mega naps- 10:30-11:30, which is about normal, and then in the afternoon.. 2-4!!!
He went to bed at 7:30 last night and didn't wake until 8 this morning!!
And he's acting tired still lol!
3 weeks today until my birthday, my first one as a mummy, which I'm so excited about! I don't want presents, just a card from Oliver x
