spring is (somewhat) sprung...

Hai! The maternity leave and preggo-ness continues! We seem to be sloooowly ushering in the start of Spring, and bidding farewell to Winter

Do you like what I did there?
Soaking up the sunshine with lots of beachfront walks - I feel so incredibly lucky to live so close to such amazing beaches!
Helloooo feet! (just! haha)
V and I have been enjoying some lovely date nights - there be whiskey in that man's apple juice, I'm told it was delish! (my plain Jane juice was just lovely, thanksverymuch)
Number of relaxing solo, pre-bub coffees I have consumed?
To be honest, I've lost count
Dressed the bump up as some sort of blue, fringed yeti creature today - not sure that's exactly the look the good people at sass&bide were going for heh
And speaking of dressing the bump, this Popbasic breton top has been good to me - definitely a pregnancy staple here!
Finally picked out a playmat thingo for le bebe - this one is in keeping nicely with the excess of owls we seem to have going on in the nursery...
Experimenting with my wedding veil in the nursery...
Not sure whether or not this stuff works? Feedback anyone? To be perfectly honest, I'm in no rush for her to arrive - I'm not "officially due" for another week (well, 6 days to be precise), and while she remains inside, everything remains very easy for me. No need to think, how that is going to change! Helps that I remain quite comfortable. I have to say though, the look in V's eyes every time he asks how she's baking, and the disappointment every time I come back from another OB visit with a, "no movement yet babe," is starting to kill me. He is just jumping-outta-his-skin excited for her to be here - so for him, I'm happy to sign the eviction notice.
xoxo

  2. Towards the end I never wanted the baby to be born because I was just loving my pregnancy so much and I knew it'd be harder once he was born! But really once they are born it is just so fantastic! And much easier than everyone says!

    Enjoy the last few days xx

  3. Looking lovely and looking forward to an announcement.
    Never tried clary sage oil but took raspberry leaf tea tabs and acupuncture assisted with bringing on my labour. X

  6. She'll come out soon when she's ready. Her nursery is so gorgeous though, am sure she'd love being in it as will you for all the feeds and changes.
