Instead of a Christmas card, this year we sent this email to friends and family…
Don’t expect a Christmas card this year. There will be no fancy animated emails, or gorgeous kid photos or even braggy Christmas letters. Life is too crazy and I have been too busy growing this….
Baby number four is officially due two days after Muski’s birthday but is likely to show up any time it damn well wants if past experience is anything to go by.
The girls are keen on a sister, but Muski is hoping for a car….. or a dinosaur. The Baldy Boy is just hoping not to be sleeping in the shed by then, but it’s not looking good on that front.
So if you didn’t already know, now you do. The sleeping and vomiting has curbed my blogging a little of late but I’m hopeful (oh please let it be so) that things will be better on that front after Christmas and life will be back to normal. But I don’t think I’ll be blogging again till after the big day so now is the time to say –
Merry Christmas from all of us here at the Pickle Farm.
I hope you all have a happy and safe holiday period doing whatever it is you like best!
