I have 2-3 weeks left!!! I am massive!!!

I cant believe how quickly time is going now. At least now I can chill out and not go to work, maternity leave starts on Monday. I am sure I will still be meeting the girls for lunches and then coming home for my afternoon nap - I know what your saying 'enjoy it while you can' and I will!

Feels so strange for Deric and I to have so little to report - usually we are traveling and getting around. But now....... we have to stay close to the hospital just in case!
We have booked the baby's christening on the 18th February, we had to attend classes over the past few weeks. So now that that's over we have done all the classes we need to do. Birthing (7 classes), infant CPR (1 class), and christening (2 classes)... done! And I am sure everything we learnt in these classes will be thrown out the window the day the baby comes.

Its been a while

I have had every intention of writing, but lately I get home and just veg... poor Deric, his wife is such fun lately!!
I have my last day of work tomorrow, bigger bonus is its a half day. Then I can chill and finally spend time reading all those books I should have read a while ago.
My last doctors appointment was good, we are at 37 weeks (2-3 weeks left)- I am progressing well, but she still needs to get bigger before I start wishing her into the world. The problem is I don't think there is enough space! I waddle around, and when I walk to the loo I am grateful for the rest when I get there. But we are so excited for our new beginning.
I will send some updated pictures soon, so prepare yourselves for my ever expanding body. I am 108cm/42" now (I started at 73cm)
Thank you for all your emails and comments that have come in lately - I so enjoy reading them
Cheers for now

Happy New Year

Our New Year was very LAME considering what we have done over the past few years! I did surprise myself by staying up till a whopping 12:05am though. Quite an accomplishment!

Deric and I went back to work today. I will officially be stopping work on the 16th January..... just time to do nothing! I am counting down the days. As Tash says 'no one thanks you for staying up to the end'.

I am in the Braxton Hicks phase of the pregnancy (36 weeks) - I am forever waiting for a contraction to be over. But they say its the body's way of practicing for the real deal (who knew there was so much to pregnancy!)

This year should bring new beginnings to all.
With Sarah and Zack, Mikey B and Kelly, Corey and Todd either having just received their bundles of joy or waiting patiently for them. There are also so many of you guys moving country or homes (what is it with our friends and family moving around so much?)

Also Claudia and Jannes getting engaged on the 27th Dec... Congratulations......I could not be happier for you both!

I wish you all the most wonderful year!
