A few things...

There are a few things I am grateful for today!!

Wearing mikes lovely warm tracksuit top! Smells like him.....  heaven!
 Having a hot cross bun with some tea even thought its nowhere near Easter!
(sidebar - didn't sit too well so I wont be having another one again for a while)

Delicious fresh fruit and veggies!!
 Some nuts and trail mix to carry in my bag! I bought some normal trail mix and added peanuts and raisins and some pumpkin seeds.... a good thing to snack on!!
We always seem to talk about the negatives, I have been trying to focus on the positives more than the negatives lately! Makes life that much sweeter!

COLD and RAINY!

Spring has sprung - or so we have been told but it seems winter is making a come back!! For the last 2 days it has been super COLD and RAINY - pouring down rain!! Our patio looks like a pool, it floods when it rains so much....

I whipped out my warmest jacket and of course a scarf to match!! (cant let my little bean get cold now can we :) )
I even had to use my brollie - it was raining that hard!!
 Traffic on the way to work was HORRIBLE!!
And this was what Mikes work parking lot looked like this morning - shame!! His shoes and socks got soaked and his toes were cold all day!
I am so happy to be home and warm!
Drive home safe precious, I want you home in one piece!
AND the perfect night for an evening in and some fish and chips - yum!

Kisses from my boy!
 And a bedtime story from my favorite person in the world!

The complete works for Winnie The Pooh.... makes for very sweet dreams!!

Precious pups!

Our precious pups have been so loving and cuddly lately - especially Tim's! From the moment we found out we were pregnant he has been ON me all the time and not wanting to leave my side - it really is the sweetest thing! Im sure he knows something is up!
Today I got home a bit earlier than normal and managed a quick nap, Tims napped right with me and Holly guarded the door as she always does!

 Doesn't he look like he's saying "i love you mom"! I think so!

And my precious little one gaurding the door and keeing us all safe! Love these munchkins - I hope our baby will love them as much as we do - I recon Tims and Holly are going to be super protective of their little baby brother or sister!!
Cant wait to see how it plays out!

Series...

Some series we have been enjoying lately! We get so happy when we have an evening in and we can make a dent in our series!

The mentalist season 4 - AWESOME!! Dam you red john, dam you!


We are busy enjoying Grimm - love a little fantasy from time to time!! The main guys always reminds me of superman and I am not sure why!
 Ahhhh Suits! Just watch it!!!
Evenings in, cuddled on our couch - bliss!

Our new tradition...

Our new tradition of late is to wait till Tuesday and read up about how our baby bean is growing! From week to week the changes are incredible!! We have an app in our Ipad that shows us this but today we got a gift from a friend who had her little baby girl, Tatum, 6 weeks ago - she passed on the book her hubby bought for her and man are we happy!!
This is our new tradition - seeing how baby is growing!

First my 8 week photo - still not tummy yet (I don't think)...

we got this book as a gift - its amazing!!!
Mike enjoying reading all about our little bean!
 We read back to week 8 because its not Tuesday yet - tomorrow we can read all about week 9 :)
 Nala (who we are babysitting again) was also enjoying reading this....
 Then Tims got in on the action...
and do did Holly :)

This is totally my new favorite thing to do with my husband and pups!
Hello little bean, how will you have grown this week??

My daily favourites!

This weekend was an awesome weekend, Friday night we went to McDonald's and decided to have ice-cream for dinner, Saturday lunch we spent at a lovely little nursery with friends, Saturday afternoon / evening we spent watching the rugby (the ladies chatting away) with other friends. Sunday morning church then home for some lovely curry for lunch and then nap time!!
Having said all that my eating wasn't great this weekend - I didn't eat a lot but I seemed to have eaten a few thing our little bean and my tummy were not happy with - especially the curry yesterday! I battled to fall asleep last night AND this morning was not a good morning - so i decided it needed to stock up on some healthy food and that is what I did.
I popped into Woolies and got some lunch and breakfast stuff for the next few days!

A packet of goodness :)
 A lovely lunch time snack, cucumber, carrots and a piece of cheese!
 A huge bowl of fruit for lunch / afternoon snack! Oranges, mango, grapes, grapefruit - fresh and lovely!
And today I felt good after all that goodness.
For pudding I was reminded there is a orange paddle pop in the freezer with my name on it - yummy!
