I had to be brave to check when my last post was – it’s been nearly a month! I’m going to be yawnsome and blame it on work, but here are a few choice morsels from chez Campbell since we last spoke:
1. Alien Skeleton Baby
It has been confirmed – we are officially giving birth to an alien skeleton baby. See alien skeleton baby face the camera and wave!
2. Flutterbye baby
On Monday night, I had the weirdest feeling in my lower abdomen. It felt like when you hold a baby rabbit and the heartbeat is so quick, you can barely count the separate beats. If I have read all the baby blogs/books/websites correctly, this is the baby moving! I can’t describe how exciting this is – a little lonely as Patrick can’t feel anything from the outside, but very cool nonetheless.
3. I’m officially quitting online parenting discussions
I’m keen to be the best Mum I can be, but I’m just not sure I can measure up. I plan to have baby in a hospital (with a rather snazzy birthing centre!); I’d rather wear a wrap or something while breastfeeding because I don’t think everyone needs to see my bosoms; and I think star charts are frickin’ awesome! These things are just not cool, apparently. My mind is taken back to the world of mason jars and stucco-ed invitations…
4. Coming soon…
No, that’s it. When they say “coming soon” on tv, I get really miffed. I want to know when it will be on so I can set Sky + to record!
5. Disneyland Paris
We spent the day there on Friday. When I say “day”, I mean a grand total of four hours, in two theme parks. I am pining for Florida with every cell in my body! I do, however, have some pictures and a slightly more detailed review, which will be “coming soon”. See what I did there? After the honeymoon updates…
Hey! Welcome back! Both you and the (surprisingly photogenic I must admit) alien skeleton baby!
Thank you! Please excuse the slowness of comment processing!
Hey! Welcome back! I’ve been wondering about you…. How is Meg? Puppy news always keenly sought!
Perhaps you should call your baby ‘Rabbit’? I actually know someone called Bunny. She’s a middle aged woman and I always actually avoid calling her Bunny as I feel so ridiculous – so maybe not!

Meg is very well, thank you – her favourite hobby seems to be asking to be let out so that she can just stand there, have the wind blow her ears around for a bit, and ask to be let back in again. Strange dog.
Ohhh… That’d just make me think of Eminem in 8 Mile! And just imagine the psychological damage if he/she ever needed braces!
Oooooohhhh congratulations! What a fine looking alien baby you have there x
Thank you very much!
