Having a long cuddle with sleeping Noah and then feeding him a bottle.
Jonny putting my book pitch into InDesign for me. He’s been so helpful and I really really hope this goes somewhere.

Getting my first pay cheque in eight months too!
My old boss had her baby! Hurrah, he looks like a good one. It’s also her first baby in eight months. Well, nine. Well, her first baby ever. But it fit the pattern of the blog.
