Baby Willett - 34 weeks...

Time is going fast now and I have been madly washing and preparing for the baby to arrive. I have also finished work now and trying to slow down as I am always tired now. I have been feeling really well and getting a little nervous now but excited too! Love to hear from you all...

Check out all the gorgeous knitting Grandma has been busy doing - this baby is sure spoilt already!


Dave and I have redesigned the room - Dave chose the colour - red and I painted! The room was green and blue and white and I wanted it all white and fresh. It needed colour so I painted the window sills and the cupboard doors too. It really brightens the room up and then I have put some stick on animals and deisgns on the walls. Also, more colour artwork to stimulate the brain!

Check it out!!!
More sewing by Grandma -amazing!

As you can see in the photos - we have been very busy preparing for our new arrival that may be here in just 4 weeks time!

The baby is growing so well that it is in the 95th percentile for all babies and will be 9 1/2 pounds (if I make it to full term). The doctor is keeping a close eye on the babies growth and it is highly likely the baby arrives earier than expected.....watch this space!




The Mountain buggy -all set to go - Thanks to Dad and Marg in Hamilton!!! THANK YOU!!! Can't wait to use it soon!
Here are some ultrasound photos from 18 weeks - I have had a more recent scan but no decent shots as the baby moves too much and was camera shy! The face was very alien like also as it does not put weight on until 20 weeks +. The baby was already in the 75th percentile at this scan and its growth rate is continued (I haven't been eating too much - all genes!).



More Puppy Tasmanian Adventures...






There are so many places to take the dogs where they can explore and run and most of the time you come across no-one else.

About 30 - 45 minutes drive from home you can find many beaches including- Green's Beach, East Beach, Low Head and Bell Bay Beach - They are all starting to get colder by the day but when the sun is out they are all enjoyable and tire the dog's out.









We also walk to dogs every afternoon and most evenings as I sleep much better once I get a walk in - even if I have slowed down to half my normal walking speed now. Check out how happy Otis and Big Red are - Big Red LOVES to get messy!!!!!


Dave Working hard in the Yard!


Well, I have finally finished work now and have some time to update our site. Althought, most of you will be disappointed as there are no tummy shots. As I write this update Dave is having his last "Boys Weekend" before Fatherhood calls in only a few weeks time. I will then try and get some shots for you all as my tummy is rapdly expanding by the day.

Anyway, Dave and I have plans to clean the yard up a little but we have been slowed down a little by baby, study, weather and life but check out the progress! VERY MESSY!!!
