coping with 2

goodness, now that's done i can do my first full post of exactly what its like to have 2 under 2.
it is chaos! that's the only way i can explain it. don't get me wrong i am well and truly enjoying having them both here, but it is hard work!
Ellen is five weeks old now and she is beginning to "wake" up a bit, and hopefully her feeding will settle soon then things will get easier.
Having Michael off work so much has really helped, he is back full time as of tomorrow, so the real test starts then i suppose.
Thomas has coped surprisingly well, he is getting a bit clingy but he seems to love her to pieces! which is a weight off my shoulders i must say. i mean i know its not in his nature but i was a little worried he would be jealous of the attention shes getting.
i am actually quite looking forward to having them to myself, as Michael and i have different ways of dealing with them, I'm the discipline and Michael just bribes them to get them to do what he wants! so its much easier when its only one person most of the time as it stops tom getting confused. not meant in a bad way at all, just that we are different.
well im off to feed Ellen as she had just started..

Night night x

Ellen has arrived!

finally got the pictures onto the laptop now, so heres a few...

Getting Back Online

well having moved it has taken a month for the internet to get back up and running so my posts are a little behind!
Little Baby Ellen is finally here!
she arrived 24th May at 10.42am, weighing 6lb 9oz, and sporting a FULL head of dark brown hair!
labour was ok, ended up with a forceps delivery though, which was a shame but at least she arrived safe and sound. managed to breast feed this time, with no problems getting started at all, unlike thomas who would not latch on at all. we have decided to switch to formula because she is such a hungry baby and is feeding every hour!
pictures to follow, as i cant find my blue tooth adaptor at the moment!

love to all
