Our First Baby

What's it gonna be??

Sorry I haven't updated this blog for a bit, we have been pretty busy. Selling our flat and buying a house in the countwy!!! Nowt like doing all of life's most stressful things at once, now is there?

The baby has been wriggling away like a goodun. It tends to be particularly active after I eat chocolate which is of course not very often (ahem...), or indeed any other food (which is actually quite often - say every couple of hours!). Mark saw it move from across the room one night but of course as soon as he put his hand on my tummy it stopped. Maybe it thinks it is a gasme like Musical Statues or something?

We have been putting together various lists in order to pretend that we are organised. A constantly revised name list is on the blackboard in the kitchen. So every time I am in there, I am wiping off the ones that Mark suggests and vice versa! We also have list of things to get for the baby, a list for the hosptal bag etc. We did have a list of contenders for the pram, but have at last decided on one - the BeBe Confort Loola. Will be ordering that online very soon.

This Saturday we will see the baby again. We have heard its fast little heart beat at every midwife visit, but cant wait to see the wee face on the 3D scan. Not to mention the wee fingers and toes and perhaps the wee willy, or not!!! Mum and dad are coming over for it specially.

So thats all for now chickens, will try and keep upt ot date but sure you know how it is,
