Early Stages

It’s Saturday 9 April 2005. Daddy was supposed to go to work today & his alarm was set. At about 04:30 this morning mummy started feeling things she hadn’t felt before, like a strong tummy ache. She then woke daddy after about an hour & we watched some television for a while & kept an eye on the time & how frequent these pains came. They were approximately 30 minutes apart so daddy rang work at about 07:45 to say he wasn’t going to be in!

Mummy had planned to go to the French market in Woking with her mummy & daddy & she still wanted to go so we got dressed & met them there. Jenny the lodger was also there with mummy’s nan & Lizzie the dog.

We had a nice time. They had all sorts of nice food on sale, aswell as clothes, baskets, soaps... We bought some biscuits & some croissants then we all came back to our house to have a cup of tea with our goodies.

Well, after that all the pains slowed down & disappeared!! We had quite a boring afternoon – just waiting. Oh well, you’ll come when you want to. We’re all excited about meeting you.
