Sugar and spice and all things nice...

that's what little girls are made of!

Yup, my scan showed that we are having a little girl!

Well, as sure as the scans can be! Not going mad on buying lots of girl stuff just yet though, will wait until after the 4D scan on 15th november. Soo excited. We weren't really bothered either way, though I know Husband would have loved a little boy to share all his toys and things with! lol. But now I am really looking forward to doing all the girly things :) I did offer to buy Husband a big baseball bat for her 14th birthday (as I know he will definitely be the over-protective daddy!), but he said he already had plans!! Scary thought!

I am doing really well though, just need a decent night's sleep, but I doubt that will happen any time soon!

The bad thing at the moment is that we had my beloved Cloud put to sleep last tuesday (the 22nd). We saw the vet on saturday as I said, and he had an anti-biotic injection and we brought medicine home for him, but although he perked up a tiny bit that evening, he wouldn't eat or drink properly and so we couldn't get his medicine into him. By Sunday evening he had pretty much stopped drinking and all he wanted was to be cuddled by us :( I ended up in such a state Monday morning that Husband refused to let me go to work, so I stayed home, cuddling my fur-baby, and made another appointment fo the Tuesday evening. It was easier than with Geoff and Alfie, as at least I wasn't on my own, but it was so much worse too. Cloud was the last of my 3 fur-babies, who'd been my daily companions while Husband was in Afghanistan. And because he was on his own for so long, he had so much of our attention, it's really left a hole.
I nearly begged Husband to take me to get some more rats when I got so upset while empting the cage this week (we'd moved it into the shed after burying Cloud, but it took me a while to be able to sort it out), but I think it was just as I was so upset and missed him so much. No more pets for a little while, even though the house feels horribly empty when I am home alone. :(

RIP Cloud-baby. Miss you. xx
