The Baby Show, NEC Birmingham

Yesterday we visited the NEC in Birmingham for The Baby Show!

Nanny (Anneka's Mum, Susan) had bought us tickets to go, so Anneka, Alice, Kim, Nanny and Me all set off to arrive just after the doors opened. Immediately we were confronted by a man trying out an adult-sized Fisher Price baby bouncer!

We spent a good few hours wandering around each of the stalls, amazed by what was on offer - and indeed, the world of Babies that we're now members of...

The great thing about it all, is that each individual exhibitor had something new to offer. From re-usable nappies (of which we've purchased 5), to extravagent prams and nusery furniture.

Although the show has finished for this year - we'll be back next year, with Lily too! I can highly recommend it, to both the mother and fathers. I found a pair of pink Converse shoes for Lily - something that I've been wanting to get her since we first learnt of her arrival. I've also walked away with a bag full of literature, which will hopefully prepare me even more for the big day (and years to follow)!

Daddy's little girl

This morning when Matt and I were enjoying a lie in, Lily true to form decided that she wanted to say Hi and was kicking and wriggling like mad! It was one of those moments where I was so amazed and proudĀ to have the two most important people in my life with me. She must have been kicking for a good 15 minutes and her Daddy's face was a real picture when she did one of the biggest kicks I have felt andĀ Matt thought so too as a huge grin spread right across his face! Just an amazing moment for us both! I am truly very lucky.
