I am a little late with my first month update for Baby J but I have had a good excuse. I have been drinking in every last drop of these newborn days. Being a parent third time around and knowing how quickly time goes, I am not missing a thing this time. The month started…
I am sure I have done one of these before but I searched on my blog and I couldn’t find it. I read Rachel Swirl’s A to Z of me and thought, even if I have done one before, I would have another go. Some of the answers are sure to be different. A is…
