Introducing....Roast Rabbit

This amazing, adorable, perfect little slice of heaven decided to join us on the 24th November 2012.We have not been able to stop kissing her since! You never know who you are going to get, as it were, but I can honestly say, after only nine weeks, I feel that this little person was always meant to be with us. How could it have been any different? How could we have expected anyone else?

Whilst I was pregnant we got into the habit of asking our older daughter if we were having a boy or a girl (we wanted the surprise so did not find out at the scans) and what name the baby should have. Well, often it was predicted we would have a boy but nearly always we were told the baby was to be called Roast Rabbit. The rabbit part has stuck somewhat and I honestly think my eldest believes it is the baby's middle name. Perhaps it should have been.

She is also mostly what has been keeping me busy and away from blogland for so long. That is to say my pregnancy did. I really suffered with horrendous nausea and sickness for the first 22 weeks and that coupled with our building works meant it was all I could do to keep my toddler amused with cbeebies and low maintenance meals such as fish fingers! Said building works then saw us move out "for a week" when I was 36 weeks pregnant. We did not return until Rosalie was nearly four weeks old. But that is a whole other story for a whole other post!


Thank you for the comments you have left, it is so nice to talk to you all again!
