It’s Triplets! – 7 Week Scan

Thursday 10 September 2009 will remain in memory forever. It was the day we saw the heartbeats of three little creatures fighting their way into life, a momentous day on a three year journey of LOTS of hard work and persistence. It was the day I finally believed we could do it, we could conceive.

Embarrassing moments for your entertainment

Last night I experienced one of those rather embarrassing moments that will remain in memory for a good few years to come and I thought I’d share a few of these with you.
