The Day Of All Days!!!

Well here goes my first post. I should really give you a background of my life and stuff. So here goes, I got married September 05 to a man called Jonathan Clarke. As you will see from the title of my blog he's a soldier. We have been together 4 years and have a beautiful little girl together. Before we got married i lived in my home town, Mansfield with my family. Which if I'm honest i miss the town and my family and friends everyday. The only downfall to living in Mansfield meant i only got to see Jonathan at the weekends and that was OK but it did suck at times. Now I'm finding out that being an army wife is full off sacrifices, they tend to just be yours too. But you do anything for the people you love. An thats the reason i agreed to move away. To make my family work.

We are currently posted in Newcastle and live on an army base. I know what your thinking! How exciting there must never be a dull moment there. Well you couldn't be further from the truth! I think my highlight of the week is seeing the bin men and giving the window cleaners a brew!! There are coffee mornings and toddler groups don't get me wrong!! Trust me though there is only so much breast feeding and labour i can talk about. I was one of the lucky ones, my labour lasted 6 hours in total and was pain relief free. Not many mums want to talk about that when there labour lasted 4 days and they had every drug possible. They tend to take an instant disliking to you!!! I spend most of my days alone with daughter Leyla who is now 1 year old and is the absolute centre of my life. Don't get thinking that I'm one of these mother hen types. Nothing could be further from the truth. My little girl is certainly not wrapped in cotton wool. Which is why i think she is so forward. Plus she's female so that went in her favour too! They say girls are more forward than boys! ( Who is 'they' by the way?). The downfall to talking to a one year old all day is that you seem to patronize people that you do meet, plus i'm sure my iq has dropped!! Hee Hee!!!

I hope to start working soon. Sometimes an hour away does the greastest difference. Some days there is only so much screaming into a pillow you can do. I feel that i could consider leaving my little girl with a minder a few hours a day. I think it would benifit us both in the long run. MY GOD!!!!! have you heard me! I'm gonna go because i'm boring myself!!
