ANOTHER HOT DAY AHEAD

 

It is looking to be another super hot and sticky day today.

Thank god for our pool, I don't think I would even venture outside without it to jump into to cool off.

This morning I am going to finish off the next runner, which I worked on last night.

ABOVE: It's not quilted or bound yet, so I'll get that done today.  Just a nice simple black 'n' white one.

Once it's done, I don't know if I'll make another one today or not.  It will depend on what Stew wants to get up to.  I feel like we need to get out and about a bit more.

We are such home bodies!

BABY HARVEY STATUS:  Still no sign of baby.  All is going well though.  Bex is tired, and so over it.  It's very hard in this heat to keep ya cool.  But she's doing well.

BACK LATER...

Stew and the boys had a swim in the dark last night, apparently the water was lovely and warm.  I on the other hand, chose to sit and enjoy our little rock fire.

ABOVE: There is nothing like an open flame to sit in front of. 

We've decided to go to our local park this morning, let the kids have a play, then have morning tea at the little cafe there.

ABOVE: And that's #63 finished.

I am going to lay out the next one before we head off to the park.

I think it better be another Kiwiana one, cos I only have two of them right now.

2.41 pm:

ABOVE:  We didn't spend too much time at the park as it was just too hot.  Plus those boys don't know how to play outdoors!  Seriously.  Their thumbs get the only regular exercise!  Just like how our boys were.

After the park we had lunch at the mall (McDonalds) then came home and rested for a little while.

ABOVE:  I got the fabric for the next runner laid out, I'm happy with my selection.  It's a 'Kiwiana' in blues.  I don't think I've done one like this before.

Then we all got in the pool, and that's where I am going back to.  Right now.

4.37 pm:  Just too hot.  After having a swim I went back into the sewing room and worked on that new runner.

Now?

I have stopped for the day.

In a while I will think about what to feed the kids/Stew.  I am still full after lunch so might just have some yoghurt and fruit.

BABY HARVEY has been safely delivered late this afternoon.  Mother, Father and Child are all well.

Details will be posted when the parents are happy to share.

Stew and I, and the brothers are on cloud nine.  So happy.

8.58 pm:  We were extremely lucky to be able to visit Bex, Steve and Baby for a little while this evening.

I hope to let you all know the details tomorrow or the next day, it all depends on Steve and Bex, and how soon they want details on here.

Now we are home, and the boys want another swim in the dark before bed.

BED.  Gosh I'm so looking forward to that... it's been hard to sleep much lately.  Been a bit worried about Bex and Baby, thank goodness I can stop worrying now.  Both are safe and well.

Soon.. it will be...
