2 Years on

So I've been rather bad at updating this blog. I think the last post was 18 months ago !
This is mainly as life as just taken over.
My son was two in June and growing up fast !
We've moved in to a new house and we are expecting our second in November (child, not house) 
So between working, doing up the garden and the house, and spending time with my family I haven't had much time to update this blog.

However as we have a second on our way and I can see people are still hitting the blog, I've decided to post some more updates.

As I've now had two years experience, I'll now be focussing on certain aspects in each blog.
hopefully this will assist someone else in a similar position.



A quick update with how I've coped generally in the first two years though.

I'm a lot more confident with Jake now and happily scoop him up in one arm and throw him over my shoulder. He weighs a lot more than he did 18 months ago ! (My arm has got a lot stronger) Although as he is running around everywhere and does actually hold our hands when he needs to, there isn't too much need for picking him up throughout the day.


The only thing that I can't do with him is if we go to some of the soft play places where Jake can climb higher and easier than I can manage, so I can't really keep up with him, but everything else is easy.


So looking forward to number two I don't have any worries about how I'll cope with the new baby, it will just be fun with both !
