DAY15 / WEIGHT: No Weigh Day (NWD) / Nappies: 8/20 hrs / Feeds:8/20 hrs

So, today after seven days of being home-bound (not because of the stitches, labour, giving birth process) because of the trauma of the 'double buggy syndrome' I, armed with 'love of my life' and two children leave the house.  And, okay we only left the house for a couple of hours to visit relatives, but still...this is a social outing for my now, very clear and blank diary.

The double buggy didn't come on the social event of the year (so far!), it's firmly tucked away at my parents house and will probably never come out again.  So, imagine my delight when earlier today, I read about the Bugaboo Donkey.  OMG! 



Six years before finding out during the Coronation Street break that I was pregnant with Edie, I wanted a Bugaboo.  And, why?  I used to see the Yummy Mummies of Primrose Hill, walking through the village with their perfectly sleek ponytails, popping into Tri-Yoga and grabbing a skinny latte at one of the pastel coloured coffee shops pushing these brightly coloured prams.  And, I wanted one!  So, years later, I'm the proud owner of a Bugaboo Cameleon...the sleek ponytail and Tri-Yoga, svelte-like figure will have to wait!

I excitedly shout 'love of my life' and get him to watch the Bugaboo Donkey video clip (repeatedly) as I scramble to find out when these Donkeys are launching.  SPRING 2011.  Really?  Do I seriously have to wait that long before I leave the house with my two children?   Do I really, really have to wait that long before I can turn a corner without calculating a turning circle first?  FFS!
