Leopold is amazing!

I just love this little man so much and cannot wait to see him interact with his baby brother.
He is such a gentle soul, I've never met a more affectionate toddler. He definitely has a funny and cheeky side to him though haha.
Leo is growing up way too fast, he has at least 12 teeth (won't let me see if there are any new back ones), can count to two, saying 3-4 word sentences and picking up new words every day, is learning to swim, tells us when he has done poos or wees and always says "please" and "thank you".
I could not be more proud of him!

2013 and 21 weeks!

Wow, it's 2013! And what an exciting year it is going to be for my family. In about a month we are going on a lovely mini holiday to the beach (definitely looking forward to that as this Summer is looking to be a hot one), my fiance is working towards finishing is writing course and starting a home business, we are house hunting and looking to buy our first home, in May we will be welcoming our second, beautiful son (due only 8 days before my 22nd birthday), then we celebrate Leopold's 2nd birthday late June. Cannot wait for all this and more!

We rang in the New Year in a relaxed fashion. Showed Leo the children's fireworks at 9.30pm (he was mesmerised), put him to bed and then I watched DF and my younger brother play drunken xbox. Very amusing :-) I was asleep before 2am. I do wish I'd been able to have a couple of drinks, but there is always next year. Hope everyone had a lovely New Year's Eve and wishing everybody an amazing year to come. It's amazing how fast time as flown since having Leo over 18 months ago, part of me hopes this year moves a bit more slowly!
