Practising

Yesterday evening we headed to Earl's Court to visit our friends Steph and Andrew and meet their baby girl, Juliette.

Juliette was born two weeks ago and is simply adorable. The whole time we were there she was sleeping, with a peaceful smile on her face and making cute little noises every now and then. She is a very mellow and calm little girl, she touched my heart. I hope Baby O will be as relaxed and good as Juliette!

Steph, on the other hand, is doing great! (I know you are reading this, Steph, and it is absolutely true!). She had a C-section just two weeks ago and you would never tell. She is in great shape and in great spirit. I am sure all the loving care and help from her mum have something to do with it. So I am glad my mum will be able to come and stay with us for a couple of weeks during the *action days*. It was very encouraging and inspiring to see her.

I got to hold baby Juliette and it was such a lovely feeling. Seeing and spending some time with the new parents and the baby made me even more impatient to welcome our little princess to our home. Less than two months to go now...and Baby O, if you want to make mummy and daddy happy, you can even come out a couple of weeks early...will you, love?
