Love, bubs and life on our little farm

Wow what a long weekend!! Mum and Dad arrived on Thurs afternoon with a van full of goodies for us :) including the surprise ride-on mower for Jase!! I managed to keep my mouth shut so it was a definite surprise for him - so cool!!

We had a great time pram shopping on friday - my god my lovely mum marched on in there and bought up a storm!! we got the Phil and Ted Sport in green and she also bought us the bassinet addition and the gorgeous lambswool attachment!! So nice! and... she bought me the Sofia cot set which I am IN LOVE with!!

We had a lovely lunch out and then headed to my obs appointment. All is well and best of all my parents got to hear the heartbeat which was so sweet. Then we finished in Spotlight buying material to cover the vintage bassinet we are doing up and curtain material for the nursery window.

So of course much sewing followed! And... more shopping!! We ended up buying a lovely new cot as the old cot was proving to be difficult with its unsual sizing etc and we headed to IKEA and got the cutest chandelier and some cot linen...

So to cut a long story short - Mum whipped up some gorgeous curtains and did up the bassinet with the cutest skirt and ruffles. dad and Jase replaced the nursery light.. I made up the cot with the gorgeous linen and put away all the cute clothes mum had bought (this baby may send her broke!) and then today I painted the nursery in a soft lilac. End of story - it looks just beautiful - vintage, girly and very princessy!! I feel as spolit as clearly this little girl is going to be. I just cant believe how lucky I am to have such an amazing husband and such generous loving parents!

So.. photos are to come I promise! I cant wait to show it off!! Of course more is to be done - next on my list is painting the set of drawers in there in white but overall I am feeling so settled and happy that my nursery is so nearly there!

Now back to work for three days only (yay!) Jase and Ben have their V8 supercar drives on Saturday which will be fun and perfect for testing out the new video camera we got for xmas!!

Pregnancy front - tiring easily, hungry all the time and lots of lower tummy pulls and aches... lots of kicks from bub too!
will do a belly shot soon too!!

20 weeks - officially half way!!!
