This seemingly never-ending pregnancy business is surprisingly tootling along quite nicely, today I entered the hallowed Third Trimester {!!!!} and a wee bit of panic set in. The sum total of Jumbo Baby’s nursery is piled in the corner of what remains Dave’s office and the crib is still in its box in the garage. Quelle horreur! I have some …
I looked outside yesterday and couldn’t help but appreciate the sight of two loads of whites drying on the line, yes the water truck came {FOR THE 5TH TIME} and so we washed. I hate to begrudge people a long, amazing summer, seeing as how the season of sun is sometimes so fickle here in New Zealand; but enough is …
On Friday afternoon as I picked E up from school I was expecting him to be riding his scooter down the hill toward the truck, flushed, hot and happy after an afternoon of playtime at school Rewards Day. Instead he was limping, making his way slowly and his face was trying its hardest not to crumple before he made it …
Getting the nursery ready for our winter baby is requiring a little re-jigging in our house.

I have been looking forward to this little bit of ‘me’ …
Mum, Ethan and I braved the blustery weather yesterday and headed across the bridge to Junk & Disorderly – hands down the BEST second-hand shop I have ever seen. I definitely took my time, but I still feel that I would need to spend another hour in there perusing the many aisles and brushing off the dusty relics to be …
I have waited a long time for our very own lounge to decorate and I have loved piecing together the bits and bobs in this room. It’s cosy, bright, comfy and Ethan friendly. I’m in love with this room. Truth be told, I only sat down in this room for the first time tonight for more than 30 seconds. I …
