S They Called Her

She's gonna hate us using that spelling when she moves to America..... Not a whole lot I can add to these pictures except to say we're all delighted beyond belief with the new shape of our family. I've been listening constantly, starry eyed, to that song linked in the last post. It doesn't get much better than this :)







It's been seven hours and fifteen days.......

D feels the immediate need to up her game....

I WISH AYEE WAAAAS, IN CARRICKFERGUS!

She asked me this morning did I know what a melodica was and mentioned that she'd seen a notice in Eurospar about tap lessons in Nurney. She needn't worry though. The new baby has a lot to live up to in her big sister.

I'm thoroughly enjoying hanging out with D while mammy's away for a few days. As are my parents and family aswell as Áine (thanks to all for your massive assistance over the past 48 hours). Expect more baby photos. With 2... I mean 3 stunners around the place, those gig posters are going to have to wait. Over.

Edit : The translation for that Sigur Ros song from Icelandic to English is apparently :
Hopping Into Puddles
Smiling - Spinning 'round and 'round

Holding hands - The whole world a blur -
But you are standing - Soaked - Completely drenched - No rubber boots -
Running in us - Want to erupt from a shell - Wind in - And outdoor smell of your hair
I hit as fast as I could
With my nose
Hopping into puddles
Completely drenched
Soaked
With no boots on
And I get nosebleed
But I always get up

Bring on them puddles :)

Just a quick pre-empting of the "jaysis can they not afford new jimjams for poor Maisie" comments (Maeve is wearing the same top as she was in Doieann's new born baby photos).....Sadhbh peed HARD on Maeve's brand new photogenic jim jams so she pulled on whatever was closes to her at 4am without a nurse's assistance. It just happened to be the "just in case" pair. If there was any justice in the world I wouldn't have published the photo. But there aint and I love the photo. So that's the background, I swear.
