Just a few pics we took of JAK in Mummy's belly - 29/08/10
That's 38 weeks and 6 days. And only 8 sleeps from Delivery Day. Wahoo!

Unwrapping day is Sept 6th via C Section as JAK is breech.

Your prayers are coveted for this day...thank-you:)

Treats, feet, sweet!

Treat? Feet? Sweet? You work it out!

I think I will let you work out from the photos above which is which from the title! Our August has been spent celebrating our 3rd anniversary.....watching lots of me get bigger and bigger.....looking for acreage land.....attending all sorts of functions (QAL open day bbq lunch line is pictured)....and I thought by touching a snake - something I have never done before - I would be preparing myself for labour - also something I have never done before! I know I know...patting a little python is MUCH EASIER than popping out a baby...what was I thinking?? I am still counting on my climbing Cradle Mtn experience to help get me through labour...if that actually happens. A breech baby on board means a C Section is a real possibility. And if that's the case....only 12 sleeps to go:)

PS Aren't you all very lucky I only showed you the feet in the bath...not the rest of the body:))

Weddings and Gardens

There's been love and pollen in the air!

Jon had a double-whammy at friends' wedding last month when he played the role of witness and MC. Congrats to M n S...your botanic gardens wedding was a delight!

Some of our lovely friends from church and further afield threw a surprise baby shower for us. It truly was a surprise and it was a special night of games, blessings and prayers. Thanks to all our wonderful, generous friends I had a 2 hour job of sorting through gifts and finding a place for everything. The baby's room is certainly filling up.

Jon has been in his 'nesting' phase....although his prep work has taken place outside the house. He weeded, planted, mulched and mowed on the weekend. Looks great!

The new 'ponytail' and a close-up of the mulching job.

Certainly looks like 'spring has sprung' in CQ...feels like it too! Our front garden is looking so pretty...flowers everywhere.

And in other news.....like the garden, my body keeps growing and growing! And like the wedding, we are eagerly anticipating our big day...only a month to go!
