Pregnant: Meet Baguette!

Here's our little one! We are so thrilled to meet them after a 20week wait. Baguette was VERY active throughout the scan and wouldn't stop moving around- poor sonographer! I couldn't believe that we were looking at our little baby and that everything is looking so well.

My placenta is a little low so we need to have another scan in 6 weeks to check that that's under control and lifting, otherwise it's a possible caesar, but that's a way off and we're trusting and praying that it won't be needed.

We did find out the gender and (as we would have been either way) we are very excited to know what we have to look forward to. Some family members would rather not know so it's not likely to be announced here. I may just use he/she/him/her interchangeably as I don't like to call bub an 'it'!

Just feeling so very excited and blessed that this is happening. Finally I feel that I can start to bond with them and really imagine life with this little one.

Tomorrow...

Tomorrow I'll be hooked up to a machine something like this...

Tomorrow we'll be able to see our little one for the first time.

Tomorrow we may find out if it's a little miss or a little master!

Tomorrow this pregnancy may start to feel really real! 

changes!

I've been playing with blogger this afternoon and have chosen a new background and created a new banner.
What do you think?

Loving the smiley mouth and eyes.

Toot toot!

Coops and Uncle Tobes all ready to roll.

Love this photo of us all together.

Today was fun! After church we headed to Woolies to pick up some goodies for lunch. My brother and sister-in-law have been renovating their new house with the help of family and friends for the past two weekends. We helped with the move last week, but I'm being careful about the fumes in the house etc, so my jobs have included cleaning, catering and child minding. :)

A house full of people and equipment isn't the best place for the boys to spend their weekends, so friends and family have been sharing the load. We decided to relive more childhood memories and took Coops to the miniature railway for a ride. We weren't sure how he'd like it, but it was certainly a hit. He was delighted when we went for the 2nd loop around and wanted to know if he could have another go. Next time! :)

Thanks for coming with us Coops! We love you and spending time with you! xoxo

Rounding the bend. 

Coops taking it all in. He sat at the front of the carriage.

The happy auntie and uncle. :)
