 My uncle came down from Sydney yesterday. Because we live not so far from the Airport I went to pick him up. Most of the flights from Sydney where very late, late by hours. I only have to wait for a half hour, but Mark awaited for three. I got pulled up at x-raying machine. I nenver knew that my tan shoes had a layer of metal in them. We spent 15 minutes of walking back and fore, trying to work out what was setting of the metal machine. I took Callum along with me in the orange sling, I got so many people asking me what it was, how to wear it, and where did it get it from. While sitting in the waiting area at the gate, there was a lovely man with a tennis, playing and catching with it. Callum couldn’t take his eyes off him. The man would walk and play with his ball and Callum just wanted to play with him. he came and sat next to him and Callum, wigged over to him and laughed, pulled his hair and tired to eat his fingers. He made a new friend. By the time Mark’s plane arrived, Callum was long asleep in his sling.

 My Overlocker died on friday night. I am working a new shape and design of Nappy. Just as I was almost finished, the machine started to make funny sounds. I turned it off and went to bed. I took it back to the sewing shop on Saturday and had a chat with the lady, she believes it’s something small and can be easy fixed. I hope I’m not waiting to long. I still have some orders to finish up. I can’t wait to see my new design finished. So far it’s turned out a dream!! I have been playing with some new fabric that I got a couple of weeks ago. It’s just so soft and cute.

 With my Uncle down, we had lunch and dinner at Mum’s and helped her in the garden and talked and talked more. Today we went along to Ikea. Mum wanted to buy a new TV stand, and I wanted to have a look at there wooden toys. They have a really big range. I kinda went nuts. I brought Callum a train set with the trains. More wooden toys. I brought him a rocking horse. It’s just beautiful.  I brought some new bed sheets and some photo frams too. I can’t believe that his month he is going to be one.

 I did the weekly shopping today and weighted Callum on the friut and Vegs scales. Weighting in at about 8kilos. Around 17 pounds. I finally found my big long ruler and Callum is about 70-73com tall now.  When did he have the time the grow? When did he get so big? I have booket him to see the Ped for a year check up. It’s in November some time. I cant remember the date now, the 9 th or 19th?

 I seem to be very unwell. I have had Gastro again this week. My head hurts, my back is sore. I Also woke one ever early morning this week, to see a pool, and I mean a pool of blood. It got everywhere. I then spent a lot of time on the loo with just dripping. I really don’t understand what the hell is wrong with me. I have upped my iron in take this week, with the blood loss. I have never flet so sick in my life. Even after my c-section and the blood loss I had with that, I was unwell, but not like this. However I am feeling a lot better today. I walked all the way around Ikea and did the weekly shop!!
