Holidays

My Niece and Nephews have just come back from a weeks holiday in Weymouth. They all had a great time. Joseph won the disco dancing competition, and the all met Boomer the giant Kangaroo. I thought this was a lovely picture of all three of them together.

I was told but my mum when they got home that my sister said to them "it's good to get home" and Joseph replied "But it's good to be on holiday" Bless......

Soon!

Just thought I would add a new pic on it's been some time. Went to the hospital again today and they have now decided that I have mild pre eclampsia, it is highly likely that I am to be induced mid next week, I will know more when I see the doctor next Monday so will update you as soon as I know.

I'm Out!

Hey Hey, I've just come out of hospital, alas no baby as yet, still got another 4 weeks to go, I was admitted in to have some checks done, all seams to be fine and with the two days of bed rest I've got my ankles back, I'm going to try on my shoes.....

It will just be the case that I have to rest up for the next few weeks, I must say it's good to be out...

Sorry no gossip, I'm relying on you guys to update me!

1year on

Just thought I would pop this picture on as it is our first anniversary today, how a year has flown by, little did we know then that this year we would be weeks away from expecting our first child. We have had a lovely day at the east of England show and we had a picnic too, I have totally warn myself out.

That's it I give up!

As of today I am now a lady of leisure, Under my midwives orders I was told to give up work, so I went to see my bosses and they said off you pop! So yesterday was my last day at work 2 weeks before I had planed to give up work. The best thing was I was told to clear my desk!
I have plenty to do at home and I get to cook, how fun is that, I've not really had time to think, I won't be going back to work till Jan 2007, I'm sure reality will kick in shortly.
So it's good bye civilized conversations and deadlines and hello day time telly!

It's monday, guess where I've been!

I don't think baby likes mondays, I've come back from the hospital AGAIN! I had a weird moment just before I was about to leave the house, I went a bit spaced out and could see a swarm of little flys but when I put my hand out I could not feel them! And I was standing in my lounge, so once again I gave the midwife a call who then came out to see me and told to go up the hospital, it's really fustrating because I am feeling quite well. ho hum well I have a hospital appointment next Monday ( so baby see what you make of that)

How hot!!

It's so hot and humid, I'm not sure how much more I can take of this, I've just been down town for a spot of shopping and I'm totally warn out, one good thing as come of this it's fab weather for drying clothes! But who wants to where clothes when it's hot?? To cool myself off last night I had a foot spa with ice and then I had a cold bath, it was very effective and did the job. I'm just off to go swimming now I will do anything to try and stay cool and not swell up like a beachball but I Seem to be fighting a losing battle.

My nice garden

The garden is all done now, and I am very pleased with how it looks, It will be a week or two before we can go on the grass as new turf takes time to bed down!? as you can see I have my little flower bed and vegtable patch at the moment we are growing tomatos, strawberrys and we have some hearbs, I will be very proud once I get to eat my own tomato. I have so much house work to do, I have clean washing coming out of my ears, that needs to be put away, the bathroom needs a good scrubbing and the bedroom needs a good dusting, but the weather has been so good and I mean good that it really makes me want to do nothing. oh I have a nother pic for you all a friend of my mums did some pantings to go in babys room, I'm so impressed with them, she copyed the picturs from the boarder that is in the babys room. Daniel and I went to parent craft class yesterday and managed to get away in time for the football so good news all round, what did I learn?? well I don't like the idea of an epadural and would like to avoid that if I can, quite like the idea of a water birth, but one thing I do know is that I don't want to be brave..... I'll be happy for a baby to come now as it is so hot at moment, we have had 4-5 days of really good weather and how nice it is, it keeps me awake and makes me swell. Hark at me going on...... I'm gonna go now as I am going to pop of to church and then have a mooch round the shops I feel the need for a little retail therapy! I would quite like a new pair of filp flops! ciao for now

Ground hog day!

On Monday guess where I was again! Back at the hospital, my blood pressure has been up and down again and me feet, hands and nose are swollen, I'm down to 2 pairs of flip flops and my driving shoes and I still have 3 weeks and 2 days of work left.... That's if I can make it I am almost ready to give up work but I'd be board if I were to stay at home, my job is so much fun and I work with such cool people I really hate the thought of leaving. I had my last scan on Monday baby if fine and happy, it's just all the swelling and high blood pressure that's trying to get the better of me.
I'm feeling like a flump now with 6 weeks to go I am now running out of clothes. I'm off to see the Midwife today, I believe I'm going to have to see her each week up until the baby decides it want to make it's grand entrance.
I was very good last night and went swimming, I heard It can help reduce swelling not sure how, or even if I read the article right, The garden now has grass and Is looking very nice, I will post a picture soon. Ooooo I have my parent class on Saturday this also clashes with England's 1st game of the world cup, Daniel not best pleased but were negosiating terms I have a long weekend and will be going to play bingo with my girlfriend Claire on Tuesday, you never know the excitement might bring the baby on!
