   Well, before I had Sam I used to spend all day by myself just hanging out watching TV, doing crossword puzzles, listening to music and waiting for him to be born..
 Now that he's here I am so busy that I hardly have time for all of that..
 Now.. My sister and step-mum have taken him out for the afternoon to give me a little break so that I can sleep, have a bath and relax.
 They've only just left and I feel a bit lost!  Should I try to get some sleep straight away as I know I won't be getting much when he gets back, or should I have a nice lunch, take a bath and just chill out?
 I miss him already as it's the first time we've been apart!       |

   Hehe enjoy yourself, rest up (even if you only rest by lying in the bath). It sure does feel weird, I couldn't leave Hannah until she was 6 weeks old.
