HOW CUTE ARE THESE THEN?
ABOVE: the change mat is a generous size... I wanted it to be big enough for a baby for a long time...
ABOVE: all my hard work yesterday resulted in these... a Funky Nappy Bag with matching Change Mat. AND the mat has a plastic/rubber type of inner so it's waterproof! It took me ages to make the mat... cos I quilted it all too. And I only had a small amount of the fabrics, so I think I did well to get it done using what I had.
Stew's back at work today ...whoops, no he's not! It's Auckland Anniversary Day! ... and I am on the 'count down' until the kids go back to school... 3 MORE SLEEPS! I suppose I should check out their uniforms and make sure they still fit... bla bla bla.
ONWARD...
*waves*.. HI! we didn't stay home as expected... we went to Hamilton for the day.... firstly to pick up a T-shirt for Blondie in Taupo and secondly to visit the girls.
We had a lovely day... lunch at Chartwell Square with Kelly and Rena then over to see Amanda and Andrew... I must show you Amanda's belly!
ABOVE: she has only 3 weeks to go and she's HUGE! But the baby is only expected to be around 7-8 pounds. Phew.... still a big belly. She is at the "I'm totally over it" stage... poor girl.
I took a photo of Kelly and Rena too... Rena had a new haircut. It took my breath away... and Stew's .... will show you tomorrow!
It was a tiresome trip home... we literally crawled for over half the time... holiday traffic was diabolical.
Off to bath Coco now, she was sick last night and stinks something awful. *sigh*
End of Day: another week about to start... a GREAT week... three more sleeps...
DIET: so-so today.
