girls just wanna have fun

July 10th

Clary Sage.... apparantly meant to help bring labour on.

It can't hurt so I am giving it a try.

July 9th

Yesterday we were able to catch up with our very good friends NIck and Miranda and their GORGEOUS little boy Caleb.

We walked down to the local park for a picnic lunch and a play on the oval. It was lots of fun.

** I know the above pic is really really blurry, but I still had to include it. Ashca running to attack Gemma, it was sooo funny at the time! **

Chloe played in the mud most of the time.... she is such a girly girl NOT!

So after the park, we came home and put the kids down for a little nap. Then for dinner we decided to be lazy and get yummy Thai take out.

Nick and Miranda, it was so awesome catching up with you, I only hope we could do it more often!

Using up some old stuff

I set myself a challenge, to scrap using only old supplies and pics.... I managed to get these 4 LO's done so far and I am reasonably happy with them.

(please excuse the crappy scanning)

July 8th

Kids are at day care today, and it's school holidays.... so that means I have been able to spend today with my gorgeous man.

He gave me a lovely sleep in this morning, and he got up, got the kids all ready and took them to care for me. I slept in til 10am, it was bliss!

Then we headed out to eastland for a walk around the shops and some lunch. We had a really lovely BIG sanga each from Kukka (a really nice sandwich bar at Eastland for any local people reading this).

When we got home, we decided to head outside for some piccies. It's not often DH and I get to spend a day alone together, so of course my pic for today had to be one of the two of us.

And then Izzy snapped away some pics of me and my belly - now 5 days overdue!

July 7th

Yesterday, I decided to have a bit of fun with taking some SP's. They turned out a bit crazy with the composition and all, but I actually really like them.

Then I also took a boring "record the moment" one.... I have a plan to scrap this.... eventually.... title will be "My Pet Hate!". I totally hate doing the food shopping. Not for the fact of actually going to the shops and choosing it all, but for the fact that I then have to come home and unpack it all. Just a dreary task!

Overdue and Over It!

Well today has made me now 4 days overdue, and yes I am very much feeling "over it" now.

Really I should have expected to go late. Chloe came 8 days late, and twins had to be induced at 39 weeks as they were not budging. I am obviously a long cooker. But still, it doesn't make the waiting any easier.

I am uncomfortable, tired, impatient, irrational and cranky.

I just want to meet my baby. Know what gender it is, call it by it's name and most importantly hold it so close to me.

I can't wait to ring/text everyone to tell them our good news.

Of course, I am not looking forward to the process of getting it out, but I know that in order to hold it in my arms, the pain is necessary.

Anyway, sorry for the vent post, but hopefully there will be a happy announcement post very soon.

Dancing with the Leaves

Here is my interpretation of Charm's sketch challenge for the Bon's Scraps June CC.

Just Chillin'

This is my go at Tam's Blind Challenge for the June CC over at Bon's Scraps. It's a pic I have been wanting to scrap for ages, but just never got around to it, until now!

Smile

This page was done for the June CC over at Bons Scraps. It was the colour challenge set by Bon. To use cream, black, white and red, 2 ribbons and the word "smile". I really loved doing this challenge!

Hello Baby

I used the ever so scrumptious July girl kit from Bon's Scraps. It is already sold out, but I think there may be a boy kit or two still left, which is also very scrumptious. I got the girl kit for obvious reasons as I have 3 daughters, but hopefully there will be a need for a boy kit sometime soon as Bon always puts together great boy kits!
