Hej!
Thought I'd write a note...as it has been a while!
We are fine! Orla is 5 weeks old already tomorrow, time flies!
All is well, she was weighed today and she is almost 4 kg's (will have to get back to you on what that is in the "other langauage"!). She is about 2 cm longer and her head is bigger too, mum and I measured her the other day. She eats and sleeps well and she is covered in little spots, loosing her hair and has a new dry patch of skin on her head! She looks a little odd due to all of this but is still super gorgeous!
Mum and dad are here still. They have been staying at Black Robin Farm for a week, partly in the rain and storm and partly just in the wind with some sun! It's a 40 min walk from here to us. Hayley and Stu visited us today and Orla got a lovely blanket, with her name on it! They (Stu!) also got a chance to have a cuddle when mum and dad came back from their walk with Orla. They also bumped in to Mog, Mark, Honey and Rowan on the seafront which is nice as they hadn't seen them as yet. The week has been pretty quiet. I am a bit tired, I think Sean is too! Orla does sleep well including at night, still not getting the same amount as before...she is eating for England/Sweden etc as well is seems and the whole breast feeding thing has left me a bit sore...she is still getting some formula to top her up and it's all working as she is now bigger and heavier!
Sean and I popped out to Tracy and Alan's wedding on the 5th of July. It was weird to go out without Orla but great to have a few moments to ourselves and to catch up with friends at the wedding. On Sunday we had a bbq at the Gardiners, very nice food as always! On Wednesday night we managed to go out again, this time to the cinema, "Hancock", it was kind of funny and Will Smith is cute. Otherwise we spend a lot of our time eating, sleeping and I try to do stuff other than mum things. My parents have been a great help and company when Sean is working.
Thanks again for all the pressies and cards! Love the lot, thank you cards to come!
Right, time to sit down on the sofa and turn the telly on. No great plans for the weekend, sending parents to Brighton for the day and we'll think of something just the 3 of us.
Take care and talk soon!
Will try to upload some photos as well...
Love & kram
Stina, Sean and little Orla
