This is likely our penultimate Family Portrait before we become a family of five, and here we are with our best friends.
But, times with these guys are some of our happiest, and we consider them to be family. We're godparents to each others children.
This month has seen me turn 33 and B turn 5. How have I been a mother for five years? M has had chicken pox, which put a dampener on B's birthday celebrations, but we're going to make up for that with a postponed birthday party. The girls took a trip down south to visit their cousin, which they haven't stopped talking about since. B spent a week at Theatre Bugs and played a grumpy goblin in their show. She was brilliant! M decided she didn't want to wear nappies anymore, and took to using the toilet with remarkable ease. Only 4 accidents since the middle of August! The Hubby has done amazingly with his running, getting up early, and dropping a trouser size. I've been trying to get organised before the baby comes, including buying all our Christmas presents so that we don't have to worry about that in December. We'll wrap them in September.
