Lee & Lucy’s Travel Blog

I received an email this morning asking if I would like one of our photographs to be used on a Wikipedia article.

Being a frequent reader of Wikipedia, I’m more than happy for them to use one of our photos.

So with a quick change of the Creative Commons license (to Attribution-ShareAlike), our photo is now on the Singapura (cat) article.

We have some sad news. Lucy’s Grandfather, Michael, passed away yesterday morning.

We’re glad that Katelyn had the chance to meet her Great-Granddaddy… We miss him already.

Rest in peace Michael.

Katelyn is 1-week old today! Yippee! (don’t worry, we wont be doing this every week)

Lucy and Katelyn came home last Tuesday - so we’ve been having fun getting used to Katelyn’s feeding/sleeping patterns.

Thanks to my Mum (Lynda) for coming down to stay with us for the week - which was a great help! Lisa came down on Thursday too… she’s starting to wonder why she agreed to these sleepless nights!

Let us introduce the newest addition to the Kelleher/Kehoe family… Katelyn Mary Kelleher.

After a 12-hour labour, at 1:10am this morning, (Sunday 17th Feb), Lucy gave birth to our gorgeous little girl Katelyn.  She weighed in at 3.66kg (roughly 8lbs).  All fingers and toes accounted for.

Lucy and Katelyn stayed in overnight at St. Michaels - well, I say overnight, but they only moved to the ward at 4am.  I wasn’t allowed to stay … I (eventually) got home at 5am, after getting lost in Bristol! (I’m still a foreigner around these parts!)

Early afternoon, we transferred from St. Michaels down to Weston Hospital.  They have a bit more space in their maternity unit - with a more relaxed approach to the first few days of motherhood (in terms of breastfeeding, etc.)

Lucy and Katelyn will stay in at Weston for a couple more days… all is going well - I just need to make the most of peaceful sleep!

Breaking news… Lucy says her contractions have started! (and I’m writing a blog post?! Some father I’m going to be eh?)

It’s typical isn’t it? We had an appointment this afternoon for Lucy to be induced… and it’s happening anyway!

Everything is ready for our new arrive (or so we think). The nursery is ready, terry nappies are prepared, (all tested on Teddy)

I’ll try to keep you posted with any updates! … and if we’re not answering our mobiles, it’s because we can’t (please have patience).

Well, we are still eagerly anticipating the arrival of our baby. The Bump is now officially 7 days overdue!

So far, we’ve been following everyone’s advice… curries, pineapples, etc.
(I’m not going to mention the “S” word, as it freaks me out!)

We’ll be sure to keep you all posted of any updates.
