Despite spending most of the last 3 of 4 days in bed & having C at MIL’s today (& J sleeping last night) I don’t feel any better. Not one little bit. My mum said she was really proud of how well I’ve done since J was born, I’ve had no help at all & C hasn’t left my side. The house is clean & reasonably organised , we’re well fed & in budget, C is engaged & busy, J is adored, Simon & I occasionally have conversations, we get out most days. That meant a lot, probably because I’m so knackered but I’m feeling just a little bit sensitive at the moment. Anyway I don’t think it’s normal tiredness & I’m definitely feeling metabolically challenged so I’m ending my longest-unmediated-period-since-we-were-married and going back on the metformin. The plan was also to be back on aspirin by 3 months but J still isn’t going long enough between feeds.
Anyway I knitted & washed clothes today; J’s tank top is coming on nicely (I love knitting cable v. meditative).
C also did some knitting - MIL helped her, I am *so* impressed, she’s really quite quick too 
And some more pictures:
J grabbing things - you can just see his new cashmere boots as well 
Building the path en famille (C in princess garb wielding a spirit level in the background)
J just because he’s cute
C’s knitting IS impressive! Looks more even than mine

she woke me up at too early am to show me what she’d done last night in bed - I’m totlly surprised by her perseverance (it’s now a scarf for J)

How’s screaming boy?

he screamed for 39 minutes (like he was being murdered on the way back from ballet) - now happily in the carrier & I’m on my THIRD (!!!!!!!) glass of wine.
