A Good Start To The New Year!

 Happy New Year everyone, I hope that you all had a great Christmas and that you enjoyed your New Year Celebrations. 

My Christmas was very hectic and extremity tiring, like I said in my last post I was hosting this year and if you are the one preparing the lunch I don't think you can enjoy it yourself, you're too busy making sure that everything comes together at the same time and the food is served hot. When you tell your family to be here at 1pm and one half come at two and the other half at three that doesn't help either especially as I had the food ready by 1 30. I can't even remember what my meal tasted like I gulped it down so quickly, but the family enjoyed it and Mikey enjoyed the scavenger hunt I'd planned for him and my eldest son enjoyed his birthday cake so that's all that matters. I had son number two and family on boxing day but thankfully that was a more laid back affair.

It's all forgotten because it's now in the past and we move on to this New Year and on New Years Day my first little granddaughter was born, how special is that! My son and daughter in law decided that it would be better for the baby to be born in her Mothers country South Korea as they were so impressed with the health care there,  my son will stay till the end of the month before going back to Qatar, and Minju will follow him when the babies a little bit older. He is besotted with her already it's going to be so hard for him to leave her.

The care she is receiving is amazing, following the birth she and my son have gone into a postpartum care centre for two weeks where they are given  guidance on how to look after the baby and the Mother is closely monitored to make sure she is recovering well from the birth. 

Meet little Sophie

Welcome to the world little one 😊

I just want to give her a cuddle but unfortunately it will be a while before I get to meet her in person.

More coming later have a great week ahead.
