Life of Libby nelson

Chapter 70

'Good morning sweetness' Anna said as I walked in to the kitchen 'good morning' I smiled going over to the steriliser and cleaning some of Betsi's bottles 'good night' she asked 'er..she had her last feed at 11:45 and didn't wake till nearly 5:35 and then went back off till..well she isn't actually awake that's why I'm up and ready before she devil child rises' I joked, she wasn't a devil child she was really good for 6 days old I think we have had one bad night since she was born where she was up every hour gurning. 'I can't believe it's December the 31st already, New Year's Eve...Im genuinely shell shocked but new start' I giggled and anna rolled her eyes 'me too baby, it's nearly 2018... how are you feeling today' she said as she blended her smoothie together 'the year I'm 18..I genuinely can't believe it and I mean good, good as can be eh Hattie would want us to move on now I guess' I nervously laughed we buried Hattie 2 days ago 'me neither..what happened to that little 15 year old I first met and yeah she would she'd ' she smiled 'she's here' I said hugging her 'she sure is and I couldn't love her anymore than I do' she told me and I felt at home with Anna, everything was edgy around Nikki and I hated it as much as I loved Nikki and the house she was living in it just wasn't home to me anymore. 'What you thinking of' Anna asked interrupting my trance 'just how much I love it here, how much I love you and nick for allowing this' I said with a smile on my face 'you are beautiful, funny, kind and we love you like our own teenage daughter, we wouldn't have this any other way we keep telling you this' she said gripping my cheeks and squashing them together which made me giggle 'anyways how are you after the whole baby birth we haven't had a proper catch up I've been trying to give you space' she smiled 'I'm fine, I'm achey down that area but other than that I'm good' I told her and nick come in 'I'm off to work ladies, I will see use soon for our very first NYE partaaaaay' I said dancing and I smiled 'I can't wait' I laughed 'me neither, I live for house parties, well get togethers' Anna said 'I can't wait to see everyone from work' I smiled and nick nodded 'see ya ma ladies' he said and turned on his heels and left 'just me, you and Bets' Anna smiled 'lunch..' I asked 'of course, go get Betsi ready and I'll finish up down here then we can go' she said and I walked off back towards the stairs. 

'It is soooooo weird being out with her, pushing her...she's mine' I laughed 'yep, she's all yours..how does it feel' she asked 'honestly..overwhelming but beautifully brilliant' I smiled with pride as we pushed Betsi's pram from the car park towards town centre 'thankyou Anna by the way' I said 'for what now' she giggled 'the pram' I shrugged 'she needed to get around somehow' she laughed 'yeah but I can afford my own and it isn't up to you' I sighed and she shook her head, we'd bought a 'mima xari twin stroller' in Snow White with baby pink linings but obviously we had to cancel and I lost half the money now we just have the 'mima xari stroller'  in silver with a baby pink lining and it's honestly so beautiful it's a pod shaped bigger part but at the moment she's just in the baby part because she is far to small to go inside of the bigger part although if she was bigger she'd fit under the strap securely, it was gorgeous and I love it. 'Cafe or proper grub' she questioned 'proper food' I laughed and she smirked and we headed to a bar that we were regulars too but obviously haven't been in since before the baby. We sat down and the manager was over talking to us about how cute Betsi is and that he's happy for us. 'Can I get her out' I asked Anna 'of course, she's your baby' she laughed 'I know I just, don't know actually' I laughed and got my tiny baby out she was wearing a tiny tiny baby outfit handmade from instagram, she had made to fit her size mustard bloomers with a tiny tiny baby navy blue/grey blouse with small butterfly's on with a frill around the collar, long grey socks with a bow at the side and a we had a grey cardy from Zara in her bag although she was a little warm inside the bar for it to be on, people from my family said I should dress her in sleepsuits still but when we go out I prefer her to be in clothes, her clothes are majoritly from instagram so they fit effect cause they're measured to her tiny size. 'Picture' Anna said and I held Betsi comfortably and smiled 'so beautiful' she beamed 'i wish Jess was here to see this' I sighed 'she is here..remember' she said putting her hand by my heart and I just shrugged it was not the same at all 'in fact I wish all the little mix girls were here, Jade has a baby boy now and I've never met him due to never seeing them or staying in contact, they comment on my ig photos of bets but that's mainly it, jades little boy is called Rex and he's the cutest little thing ever. We'd finished up our lunch and had gone into town for a look 'so back to work next week' Anna said 'yep, I'm missing it haha' I laughed 'really' she asked 'yeah, I miss everyone' I shrugged 'you'll see them tonight' she said and I nodded, it wasn't the same though was it like at work everyone has banter and a crack at mine we are having a party. We got outside John Lewis about to go in and we were stopped by some fans wanting pictures 'congratulations' one of the girls said 'thankyou' I smiled 'did it hurt' she asked and I laughed 'I'm not gunna say it was painless, it wasn't as bad as I expected but that's because my labour was so quick' I smiled 'can we pop our head in' she asked and I wasn't going to say no because i know them from the studio 'of course you can' I giggled and they both slotted their heads in 'wow she's so tiny' they cooed 'she is and she's gorgeous' Anna beamed 'she is..how are you finding it' Beth asked 'brilliant, I love it' i smiled 'I bet Anna and nick have been helping loads' liv beamed 'they help, they're brilliant but I like to do it myself' I told them, I don't not want them think that I just palm her off on them because that isn't the case 'what day do use go back' Beth asked 'lime re opens on the 7th, I'm back then but you're not back till the 8th or 9th are you' Anna questioned me '8th' I smiled 'wow that's quick' liv said 'i know, who needs maternity though, I'm literally filming scenes and then I'm done so I just thought I ,ah as well go back after Christmas when everyone else does she'll be like 2 weeks old so it'll be fine I'll just take her and it's annoying for the editors to keep cutting a character in and out it's not fair' I said 'determination, I love it' beth smiled 'right ladies, we will see you soon' Anna said and they both nodded 'have a great new year tonight..you are celebrating' she asked 'of course' liv laughed 'great, me to..enjoy, stay safe' Anna said hugging them both 'don't do anything I wouldn't' I winked at them both and they giggled they were older than me but still I can get a little cheeky from time to time.
