Another event has passed, leaving no official planned events before THE BIG EVENT! (that is giving birth). On the weekend my wonderful friends threw me a baby shower, so so so nice of them, and it was really great! It was so great to see everyone again, although at these events it is always so hard to really catch up with everyone. I also received so many things for myself and for baby W, I feel incredibly blessed, and definitely got some much needed items!
I thought because I shared about the nursery project I would put some pictures up of what it looks like so far, and well, my expectations so far have far exceeded reality. It still has a long way to go.
As you can tell, it doesn't look that different. Apart from a bunch of presents! A cradle, very kindly lent to us by my cousin, it is gorgeous! I can't forget to mention our new chair, the brown armchair, I aquired it on the weekend, and it is just perfect. Right now, it remains home to Joel's childhood toys Tan Wrinkles & White Wrinkles (he was pretty creative with toy names, should I really take his advice on child names?)
I even had relatives from Scotland who just happened to be visiting coinciding with the baby shower. I must say, these little booties are so awesome, I can't wait to see them on bubba!
The other thing they brought over from Glasgow with them was my pram. Because, as I consistantly say, Australia is a rip off on a lot of items, so we saved heaps of $$, I think I inherited the bargain hunting gene from my Mum. It is the ICandy Peach- and I think I'm in love!
Today is rest day, after a big weekend!
