April 4, 2007 | about me, friends, social life?
I’m going away tomorrow until Tuesday, to visit Anna in the Lake District.
I am going to force her to read my book and play with my baby.
It’s incredible what you have to pack when you’ve got a small baby. Pushchair, baby carrier, baby bath, changing mat, bouncy chair, blankets, towels, nappies, moses basket, various emollients, about a ton of clothes as he poops and drools constantly. His equipment weighs at least ten times as much as he does.
I’m leaving my husband at home and he’s going to have a great time in an empty house, playing his guitar and going out and watching as much football and making as much noise as he pleases. (I bet he misses us though….especially as I’m taking his laptop with me.)
Have a great holiday weekend everyone and I’ll catch you when I get back.

He will miss you! It is such a great thing when you have just one baby and a helpful friend to get away. As soon as I’d get back Hubba would want to know everything that happened…even volunteering for diapers! Mine hated the car, so Hubba would bring me a glass of wine and take the baby for a walk when I’d get back…oh, those were the days!
Now…we’re chasing a nearly naked preschooler around the block (wish I was kidding) and debating with a kindergartener who knows how to play chess and is scary good at Battleship…why do I want another, again?

Hope you’re having a great weekend with Anna, Julie. I’m sure it’s a great trial for her to have to play with the baby and read your book. Such torture!
