Princess and courtiers

9 November, 2005
Posted in: Princess

Please admire photo of Princess below. Note also
that in a new post baby arrival development, she chooses to be accompanied by two doggies at all times. I live in fear that we will lose one or both and all of our lives will be forfeit.

She looks very smart- like something from the pages of toddler vogue.
However, this doesn’t detract from this coming Friday. I shall fly over for the day and assist in baby carrying (though I aint doing no double feeding so don’t ask!!) xx 0

Princess has obviously caught on to the household theme of things coming in pairs. Your whole household could be in a Wrigley Doublemint advertisement. If only you knew someone who could help you with that. ���

Thank you one and all, you realise that I only post the cute photos not the ones where she looks like she’s been dragged through a hedge backwards.
Thanks for good wishes Minks, I live in fear. 0

De-lurking to ask: would you mind sharing where you found the beautiful little girl’s coat? Brand? I am 32 weeks pregnant with a little girl, and in spite of living in Las Vegas, I love classic children’s clothing and would love to know if I could find things like this coat online. Thanks!

“He’s nothing but Tony Blair’s lapdog”.
“He’s a new Cromwell”  Cromwell may have a great reputation as a
Parliamentarian across the water, his reputation in Ireland is, er,
less good.
“We want the Taoiseach and Mary Coughlan (Minister for Agriculture) to
stand four square behind Jacques Chirac who is defending the interests
of farmers”.

The European Commission has the negotiating mandate for trade and Mr.
Mandelson is the lucky man in the hot seat who has to try to keep his
negotiating position concealed from the other international parties
while agreeing it in detail with stroppy delegations from 25 EU member
states.  Har di har, I bet he looks back fondly on the peace and
tranquility of Northern Ireland.

In other news, I gather, somewhat belatedly, that the Rose of Tralee is
not just a pretty face.  She has a degree in theoretical physics –
what happened to wishing for world peace and wanting to work with children?

I was disappointed in the Cork Rose until I realized that the best of the lot have moved to places like Belgium and Chicago.

Me:  These shoes are made for walking, and that’s just what they’ll do…
Her:  BOOTS Mummy!

Her (holding up soft toy): What’s this Mummy?
Me: It’s a moose from Canada.
Her: Thank you Canada.

Her: What’s that on your chin Mummy?
Me: It’s a hideous spot.
Her (amending Dr. Seuss to fit the occasion):  So now we have chin spots, will it ever come out?  I don’t think.

30 Today
Not me, but my little sister.  In honour of the occasion, the Princess sang happy birthday but alas the file is too large to send by email or upload to 20six so she may never see it.  Happy birthday all the same Miss.

My sister told one of her Chinese colleagues about the boys. 
“Twin boys” she gasped “every woman in China would like to be your
sister.”  2.5 billion Chinese can’t be wrong.

I am managing to breastfeed the twins together occasionally.  This
is not easy; I fail to understand how other people manage to look so serene,
mind you, I note that they do all look indecent.  I told my mother and she asked
“my goodness, do you feel like a cow?”.  After a pause for
reflection, I said “no, more like a pig“.

We haven’t been out much yet. Partly because Michael had to stay
indoors until the weekend before last when he hit the 3 kilo mark,
partly because of the terrifying logistics involved.  Also, we
were told that they would fit in the pram bit of our 3 in 1 thingy
until they were 4 months when we could transfer to the lightweight and
fab Maclaren.  That turns out to be a snare and a delusion, there
is no way that they can both fit in the pram and I am reluctant to
shell out for a double pram for 3 or 4 months.  I am going to
experiment today taking one in the sling and one in the pram. 
Hold your breath for me.

And finally, Mr. Waffle has pointed out to me that the twins are 6
weeks old today not yesterday.  It’s hard for me to concentrate
what with staying awake listening to the snuffling noises.

Ditto what H said – you are quite the hero. I read this blog with ever increasing awe. Good luck on your foray out. 0

oh shit- you mean you stay awake and listen to those noises with the next batch? I was hoping that was a once only obsession, and that this time round I’d be sleeping peacefully through extreme crying. 0

Ta Heather, Norah, Bobble, Pog, outing was delightfully uneventful. Even had a cup of tea. Felt very daring but did not venture to bathroom.
Minks, I fear so…
JD absolutely, extra pair of hands would be extremely useful. 0
