Today while mindlessly checking emails I realized that the 4th disc of Ugly Betty season 3 was on its way in the post. You see, we recently signed up to LOVEFILM and I was in trouble last week for putting this TV series at the top of our list. I suppose it was a bit cheaky of me. So I agreed to a pause in my viewing and put a movie we’d both enjoy at the top of the list, assuming it would arrive next. Well, it didn’t. For whatever reason they still sent me Ugly Betty. I won’t say I was disapointed. I love Ugly Betty and it’s is wonderful therapeudic mindless viewing for me when I am at home holding  babies and breastfeeding for hours on end.  So I decided to fix the situation by simply watching it all in one go, and then sending it back as soon as possibly in order to get a movie we could both watch for the weekend.

So during the second episode, Judah needed his nappy changing, so I took off his nappy and let him have a bit of a kick about. then i picked him up and thought, awww this is lovely skin to skin time…he’s so happy. However at the same time I sort of got lost in the viewing…until I suddenly heard an explostion. At first I thought “oh good, he’s pooed” then I suddenly realized he was on my lap with no nappy and had pooed all over my jeans. Whoops. i felt like the laziest mother ever!!!!

So I threw my jeans in the wash, put a skirt on and decided to get off my bum and walk into town. It felt good to get some exercise..however it’s started snowing again. Yesterday I got caught out in the hail and I was carrying Judah in his car seat to the car, and he got totaly covered in little hail stones!!! How bad is that?

It’s amazing though how you can do all these crazy things in the course of the day, get stressed, run around, be in a terrible hurry, snap at your family…whatever…and in the midst of it, you look down and there is this baby just……smiling at you. I love it.
