Long overdue blog!

Well the last time I blogged was about a week before my wife had our baby which turned out to be a boy!

He finally popped out on the 12th of February. We were shocked when he turned out to be a boy! We both thought he was a she!

Anyway Nolan is nearly 7 months old and is doing great. Hes so handsome ( like his dad of cause) hes so calm and chilled out its unreal!.

The 27th of august was steven hurts anniversary being the first year without him since he passed. It brought it all back and made it very raw again. I organized a bronze plaque to be made and has been placed in the chequers in his memory.
Its nice as the Brian clough statue is bronze so it just seemed right as cloughie is god! Whats good for him is good for steven hurt.

Summer has been quite a hot one for British weather but today has turned really cold from 24 yesterday to 14 today its quite a drop!

In the holidays we had some nice days out picnics , white post farm, wheel gate, newstead abbey.  Etc.

Yesterday was Hollies first day at play group and she loved it! As soon as we walked in she was off saying "hello" to the other children! Shes so sociable bless her!

Ethan has now moved up to the juniors so im guessing we will see some attitude in the coming days lol.

I really should of blogged every month since the birth of Nolan but its just flown by! I suppose its ni excuse it only take ten minutes eh?

Well anyway ill leave with a few pictures of the past few months.

Waiting!

Well Sally was kept in overnight to be monitored but nothing happened so this morning she was allowed to come home which I'm glad about as it was strange Sally not being around. I can cope with running the house and the kids but the house just didn't feel the same!

She's in so much pain bless her and feels like her waters are going to burst due to the pressure with the baby pushing down!
Sallys grandparents have been great having the kids no problem! They really enjoyed it! Which is really nice.

No sure what kind of night were going to have. It's one thing getting up every hour for a wee but with the pain on top its probably going to be worse.

This baby's got a lot to answer for! Lol
Early night tonight! Need to try and get some sleep!

Chow fa now!

In labour!

Well here we are its now half past 2 in the afternoon and we've been here since 10:45. Sally was 2cm dilated when they last checked and now she has been moved onto a ward (from the labour suite)

Now we're just waiting for the midwife to read her notes and make a plan!

It's took us by surprise to be honest as her section date is 11days away and that is booked earlier than her due date!

It's hot in here I'm tired as I did a 14 mile bike ride last night but I'm so excited! Can't wait to finally see the little one!

I will report back when something happens! (if I get a min)

Birthday and remembrance

So the last blog I wrote I only just uploaded and I wanted to make another blog as today is a special day.

14 years ago today my first son was born Callum Reece Inman I can't believe how fast the time has gone! It makes me feel really old! I remember the day he was born like it was yesterday even though I was only 18! The feeling at the moment of birth is the happiest feeling and a very strange emotion that nothing else can replicate. It's a feeling of happiness relief surprise glad that the baby is ok and that the mother is ok. You feel proud and self achievement. It's hard to believe that you can make a human being when you think about it nature is amazing.

I sent Callum a message this morning wishing him a happy birthday. This might sound odd but the last time I sent a card containing money it got posted back to me. So now I'm just showing that I never forget him and that I love him no matter what. It's really sad. :'(

Today is also my grandma's birthday Ethel may Brooks born 30th of January 1920! 80 years apart from Callum. Grandma thought it was amazing that Callum was born on her birthday she loved it! I really miss going round to see grandma and grandad (my olde bod)!
It was such a nice loving place to be, more so than home.
We always used to cook together but on certain days which I think was on a Wednesday when she used to go to the derby and Joan club the kitchen was closed! Lol. Old people really have there funny ways where there set in there ways and there's no changing them!

So ending this blog with good thoughts on this day of mixed emotions happy memories of those who are not with us and of those that can't be with us (me)

I hope Callum has a nice day, and that my grandad is at the bar ordering a pint of kimberley ale and a cheap one for the wife (slimline tonic water ice and a slice of lemon)

Much love xxxxxxxx

New year

Well I've left it far to long to blog again! Time is just flying by! And there is only 2 weeks to go until the next Inman will be here to join the foundation!

I can't really think that much has happened in the last 3 weeks or so since I last blogged.
I emailed Callum my eldest son to see if he wanted to meet up but no reply :-\ I know he's been turned against me but ill never give up hope on them both I think about them every day.

Hollie is going through a stage of bring funny about eating and waking up in the night for a bottle but I think she's been a little off with her stomach.

We had a week of snow which was fun we went out and made a snowman! Ethan took great pleasure in throwing snowballs at me and Hollie soon joined in on the fun!

Ha my bike stolen just after the new year which was pants! Especially when I'd just brought eighty quids worth of winter tyres!

So I've had to buy another one which I really could of done without the expense of doing!
I looked online and from what the reviews say the decathlon rock rider 8.1 was the best bargain to get. It cost £500 but it's worth £700 with the parts on it apparently!

It's nice but I'm pissed off that my dawes has gone!

I went out in the snow on the bike with Tony rich and Steve to Newstead abbey which was fun! Never been out on a bike in the snow so it was quite an experience!

Christmas eve

Well tis the night before Christmas! We've got the kids in bed Santa's plate has been left with some snacks and drinks and we have just got all the presents out ready for the morning!

Can't wait! I forgot to bring some tools home from work cos I knew dam well I would need some. But a DRILL! What the he'll! I've just built Hollies little tykes car and to my surprise its said under tools required as well as a possie drive a drill! Only to screw the screws into the plastic!

So a bit of hammering and And screwing later using a pair of scissors and pliers! It's sorted!

Looking forward to turkey for Christmas dinner as we normally have lamb or beef or both!
We had a little bufet for tea tonight which was nice.

Over and out till the festivities are done!

Just under a week to go

Well it's been a couple of weeks since I last blogged been quite busy Dec 2nd was Hollies birthday which was a nice get together. And went swimmingly good!

I lost count of how many cups of tea and pork cobs I made!.

Where are we now.... Erm yea so today is Wednesday and last Saturday the 15th was jolly Boyz outing day we do it every year and I've done about 7 of them so far. So I had to work on Saturday as ians off so I didn't meet the Boyz till 3. So by now they've already had 6 pints so I had to play catch up so I did 6 pints of the black stuff in 60 mind! And got I the swing pretty quick after that!

I got home for just after ten pm.
The next day I was pretty ok felt a little tired but good considering what I drank! Did a spot of food shopping and made Sunday roast!

Oh I just remembered the Monday before jolly Boyz Sally thought that her waters had broke! So we went to get checked out and they said all was ok and that her cervix is tightly closed and it was just discharge.

I really must start writing things as they happen as it looks like my priorities are all wrong! But there not.

Monday I got my s3 lte version which I'm very pleased with and got a very good upgrade deal from customer retentions on a blessed 18 month contract.

All ready for Christmas just about we've just got the food shopping to do and I've got to pick my last bits up for Sally and I'm done!
Ethan is gonna love his nexus 7! We wrapped it up and I checked it out first (as you do) and I love it. If I didn't have a good phone like I have I'd get one for myself!.

Hollies got a little tykes car which we won't be able to get her out of!

I'm really looking forward to seeing there faces. Just a shame Callum and Corey arnt in my life at the moment. But it will all change soon.

Right ill try and not leave it as long next time!
