Suprised!

Today in town I was struggling to get Caitlyn and the buggy down some steps because the lift was broke and there was no ramp and TWO random people stopped and helped me! There are some good people left out there..

Possibly the only 2 helpful people ever!!

Why is it that people move and offer help when you're either pregnant or old, but when you have a pram and are clearly struggling it's rare to be offered any help!

So I join you in being stunned!! xx

That was nice

Wow...I think they must all be near you. I stupidly thought it would be a good idea to buy a wheelbarrow yesterday, with Sam in the buggy. Didn't realise that you need two hands to wheel one along so I had lots of fun trying to get it and Sam to the tills in B&Q and he started crying. Nearly yelled at a man who just looked at me and laughed before squeezing round the side as if I was in his way

I was so, so tempted!! He's lucky Sam was there to witness any potential violence

I do hold doors open for people when I've got Caitlyn in the pram, why not?

Later on when I'd finally found a way to walk with both I admit it I probably did look funny but this was when I attempted to balance the front of it on Sam's buggy, the handle hit him (not hard) and he screamed...and that's what he seemed to find hilarious. I seriously just wanted to cry
