Bethany's Baby Babblings

It won't come as a surprise to you that it's a surprise to me that wiggles is actually that old. Highlights of our fifth  month • I successfully changed a nappy whilst being horrendously hungover and didn't chob (despite getting poo all over my hand and my child weeing on my foot) • we got bought a bumbo seat (a £10 charity shop bargain may I add!) and it's been a huge hit. Squidge can't sit up yet so it's brill for supporting her. She hasn't mastered how to escape from it yet (as demonstrated above) • WE GOT ON A MOTHER FUDGING TRAIN BY OURSELVES AND IT WAS FINE! on our way back she did a poo so smelly it stunk the train out. haha lol. • I've pushed myself and made plans to leave the house more often with squidge • I actually attempted to get poo stains out of wiggles' clothes rather than just throw them away! I know, impressive right? Even more impressive, IT WORKED! My favourite highlight was having a Thanksgiving service with our fam...

Obviously not my first night out ever. The first since December 2016. Which feels like a bloody lifetime ago. I was literally shaking with excitement, which made pouring multiple glasses of prosecco reet tricky. You can see how excited I am in this photo (I'm the numpty on the left) The mum guilt got me however the need to spend some quality time with my "Camel Toe" girlies (don't ask) and have some adult conversation must have been far stronger because I danced and drank the night away and scoffed a maccy d's. Tell what I didn't miss during my pregnancy; hangovers. Oh my lord I was hanging out of my arse the morning after. Luckily my parents had chunk for a sleepover so all I had to do was stay horizontal all morning and eat junk food. I realise the above doesn't really paint me as the perfect kind loving sophisticated mother. However it does describe what I think is a well balanced alreet mum. And that's what I want to be.
