I got out of the house today for an hour...ALONE. I put in a CD in the car and turned it up real loud and sang at the top of my lungs, it was great fun. I went to Boots, it's a 'chemist'- think drugstore. I ended up getting some make-up and some baby items. Then I went into to my favorite store, Home Sense. I always find cute things that I don't need at all! It was a very much needed one hour outing. Thank you honey!

So I have not attempted the school run anymore since last week. I just can't face it. Just kidding. I will soon probably, maybe another week. I'm sure Marc is ready for me to take over, it's mostly mums who take their kids to school and they all keep asking him how we are doing, which is very sweet of them! Several of them have sent home gifts for Addison, which blows my mind. I just met these mums in September and one mum I only met in January when her little girl started nursery. They have been very kind to us.

Tomorrow I will take Bailey to her Ear, Nose, and Throat checkup- she had "grommits" (tubes) in her ears at 6 months old and we have to keep going for hearing tests and check-ups. She has passed all her hearing tests, but lately I've been wondering about her hearing...maybe she just has selective hearing now that she is 2.5 years old? Because she can't seem to hear me when I ask her to tidy up her toys or to tell me when she needs to sit on her potty. I'm kind of nervous about our appointment because we will have Addison in tow, so I'm praying she will fall asleep in the stroller on the way to the hospital and hopefully she will stay asleep during the appointment. Of course this is the 3rd time the hospital has rescheduled this particular appointment. It was originally set for last November. I did not want to cancel it because who knows when I would be sent another one! It's just that Thursdays are Marc's teaching days and so he won't be able to go with me and of course the appointment time was set for the same time that Cerys gets out of school, but thankfully I have a friend who is willing to get Cerys for me.

In less than 4 weeks we will be headed to Dallas! I'm SO excited. Marc has some meetings to attend and so we are tagging on a vacation to this since he would be going to the states anyway. Yes, we are probably crazy for flying with a 6 week old and 2 other small children, but I told him there was no way he was getting on a plane to Dallas without me! So, we will spend 2 weeks over Easter at my parents house. I have a list of things to do already- most of them involve eating.

Addison slept for a 5 1/2 hour stretch last night! I'm not complaining, but I was shocked...and happy. I felt like a new woman this morning and even joined the rest of my family for breakfast! I'm not counting on her doing that every night yet, but it sure was nice!
