This weekend while F_ was playing music with his band me and Olivia went off to spend time with some of the band WAGs, including my best friend L. Olivia was on top form and behaved very well. When spending time with the child free, especially if they intend to have children at some point, it is always good if she is well behaved as I am aware of not wanting to either put people off or have them patting themselves on the back for not having their own screaming bundle of joy :) We had a civilised lunch, during which Olivia slept soundly in her buggy and she then spent the afternoon playing to her admiring audience and napping in her 'wobble chair' (our name for her vibrating seat). In the evening once she was safely tucked into her moses backet the grown ups nibbled on Marks and Spencer food for the lazy and watched 'The Devil Wears Prada' while enjoying a 'medicinal' glass of wine. It was nice to know that life can continue very much as it ever was even now we have a child.
Here is Miss Olivia enjoying her time at nice Auntie L_'s house.
Having been on such good form all weekend she has decided to be in a big grump now she is home and is having a bit of a grizzle at the moment.
You may want to edit your post a bit as at the mo it sounds like she was the one eating M&S food and watching Devil Wears Prada rather than her Mummy :)
ReplyDeleteShe was good as gold and no, it didn't put me off wanting my own bundle of joy. Although even the small amount of stuff you brought with you reminded me that babies need loads of things that we definitely don't have room for in our current flat - so no playmates for Miss Olivia just yet...
