oooooooooops

so I totally forgot about our blog and therefore have not updated it for a long long time... thanks for the reminder ben...

Its only 2 weeks and 3 days til baby is due... which officially means i could pop at any given time. Everything is ready for baby... oh except the fact that we have to move house 3 days after baby is due!!! We have lived in this house for a little over 6 months, we love it here, we are right by the park and were hoping we would be able to stay here til david graduates from Uni. But alas a few weeks ago we recieved a letter from the letting agency letting us know of the lanlords plans to sell the property and therefore kicking us out! so in a blind panic we went online and looked at flat after flat after flat praying we could find a house within our budget... and we did... we have put in all the papers and are waiting for references etc to come back and then we should get the keys on 27th july, just 3 days after baby is due... crazy times, so we are packing like crazy at the moment trying to get all organised just incase baby comes early!!



My wonderful sister Jo threw me an amazing baby shower back in June, it was at her house in Blackwater, lots of family and friends there to spoil me and make me play silly games... like the "dirty nappy" game - Karen Birch melted chocolate bars into nappies to make them look like disgusting pooey nappies and i had to taste and guess which chocolate bars they were... tasted good but was soooo wrong!! I also had to taste baby food and guess the ingredients! and pin the dummy on the baby! I was so spoiled... i have never seen so many pressies, we have more than enough nappies for the first few months which is such a blessing!!

We have been to a few weddings aswell, Alex and Hannah Burgess got married in Preston, Alex is one of David's closest friends from before his mission and was such an honour to be there. they both looked fantastic and was a fun weekend as we travelled up to preston with Phil and Carly Sewell - friends from Bristol which was a lot of fun! Then we went to Ashton and Stevens wedding in Winchester which was also beautiful. I love going to weddings as it reminds us of our wedding and how much we love each other... cheesy i know!

I finished work back in June so am chilling out at the moment waiting for baby to arrive, David has finished uni for the summer, he struggled to find a job as we only wanted him to work part time with baby coming and in september he starts working full time at southmead hospital as part of his uni course so noone wanted to employ him for the few months it would be! oh well, we have absolutley loved having this time together and I will be so happy to have him around to help me when baby arrives, and because of this move its perfect that he is home to help me pack and to move all the stuff when the time comes!

not a lot else to report... i have a midwife appointment tomorrow so we will see how baby is getting along... i am convinced baby has moved down and is now engaged but we will see!!!
