Bloody hell I’m gonna have a baby soon!

Yes, I still can’t believe it, and now there are only 9 weeks to go! 

We had a fabulous break in far north Queensland.  The weather could not have been more perfect.  We had one day where it drizzled a bit and another that was overcast but that was all. Very thankful as it made all the difference!

Here I am at Palm Cove at about 30 weeks and here’s the belly pic at exactly 30 weeks. I loved wearing sarongs, I wish it was warm here as I would be living in them. So comfy.

My feet were killing me in Palm Cove – one day I gave myself 4 foot baths to try to alleviate the burning/soreness. In the end the only shoes I could wear were runners. I managed to get back into thongs by the end of our trip though.

Here’s the awesome beach at Port Douglas.

Here we are at dinner at Vivo, Palm Cove, and dinner at On the Inlet in Port Douglas.

I managed to finish The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo – after a long, slow start it did get very interesting and I couldn’t put it down. Now looking forward to the next one (thanks Jude).

I have come home to a lot of stuff to do but I feel very refreshed and not stressed out like I was! Today I accomplished ordering a new Bruin Sleigh cot and change table from Babies R Us – a mammoth task, after leaving 4 messages and calling about 8 times while I was away and getting a bit of a run around. It cost $600 – or I could have bought it locally for about $1500! Nice bargain. My sis in law is going to pick it up for us because they don’t deliver to Mildura. Then I cancelled the cot I already had on backorder from Target – this one is much, much nicer. I also had to call Dell as my computer is almost on the way out. Now I don’t know why but it seems every employee at Dell has an accent I cannot understand. Again after many phone calls, I think I have it sorted to get fixed tomorrow. I had to cancel my chiro and massage and pilates appointments this week so there was another 3 calls. Got home to find that my ob/gyn wrote out the wrong blood test form for my Glucose Tolerance Test. I vomited it up at the last one and have to do it again L But the form is wrong, so I had to chase that up too and didn’t get the call back I was meant to. Tomorrow I have to go to the dentist for my regular clean and polish. I have about a thousand orders to get out tomorrow. I received 3 huge deliveries of products today that I have to pack away. Friday we are getting blinds installed in the bub’s room. I’ve got to go to the hospital fund on Wednesday and change over to a family cover. That’s if I feel ok after this round of glucose tests. Last time it made me sleep and feel sick for most of the day. We also have anti natal class that night. Damien had to fly to Adelaide today for work, and looks like will be working out of town for awhile (an hour away) which will make it difficult with only one car.

Just discovered my Blackberry battery charger does not fit into its hole anymore! WTF! Yesterday it was fine, now it’s all bent out of shape and it hasn’t gone anywhere. Gotta love all this technology.

So all of this plus catching up on the actual work!

So, there you go, I wrote that yesterday and just getting to upload the pics now.  We are heading out for dinner in a moment – I’m actually sick of going out for dinner. It’s all getting a bit hard for me now! Much rather just stay home in the warm. None of my shoes fit so not sure what I am going to wear.

Have a lovely week everyone.
