We have council approval for our house extension!! Whoohooo! So its onwards and forwards to the next steps - organising our detailed contract with our builder and the next round of council forms.

I am ever so hopeful that we will see a slab going down sometime soon - up until now the weather has been so rainy that it wouldn't have been good timing anyway. Sometimes things work out for the best really. We are coming into our drier months now - perfect building time I am hoping ;)

Things to think ab0out now - organising termite treatment pipes along our slab edges (as well as termimesh) and making sure that our building contract fits our budget...

Aah nothing like building when heavily pregnant and expecting a newborn into the house!

How exciting!

You are going to be very busy - but you'll manage. Will you live there while you are building or stay somewhere else?

Yep Melissa, we are living through it - including ELka's room and the new bubby's nursery having their existing external brick walls pulled down!

About Me

Amy
I am 30 years old, am a microbiologist with a PhD and love looking after my little farm. I compete in dressage and showjumping with my horses. I have a passion for shopping and a weakness for pretty clothes, shoes and handbags. My husband and I have a gorgeous toddler called Elka and a little bub named Bronte. I am a mother who works and has a career - just don't call me a "working mother". I don't do inside hobbies and craft and have only successfully sewn two things in my life that weren't ripped horserugs. The scientist in me makes me a little cynical and I am more likely to tell you about my life and events then give you a pretty polaroid style picture and an inspiring quote. Not for everyone but I have a bad memory and blogging is my way of recording life :)
