Nursery Rug and 34wk check up

Heya All,

Thank you for the lovely comments those of you that left them :-))

Don't you just love the cool rug I found for the nursery!! I have polished floor boards and high ceilings which makes the house pretty chilly in winter so I wanted a nice rug and its animal themed.

I had my check up yesterday and they have now decided I have to have an iron infusion so I am booked in for tomorrow and will be linked up to the IV for about 6-7hrs . . lucky I have a big novel to read, plus will take my portable DVD player :-)

While she was doing the check up she discovered too that JB is laying in a transverse/oblique position which at 34wks isn't too good . . .so he has a few weeks to turn himself around before they start talking scheduling a C section. I am not too worried what will be will be . . . I have no birth plan or anything cause basically I think you just never know what will happen or how it will be anyway!

SO it was a informative appointment and the Dr was just great, I have to go back weekly now so fingers crossed I get to see her again next Monday :-)

The Nursery hasn't changed from the other pictures yet . . .I am going to get a friend to help me move the furniture around and make it a bit nicer, I am not so good at that kind of stuff!!

1.5wks left of work I just can't believe how quickly its all come around, people always say how slowly pregnancy goes . . .well NOT FOR ME

Alright off to do some work

Love to All

Putting the Nursery Together

Heya All,

Saturday morning I was up just before 4am becuase Mum and Dad were moving out to their new place . . .they had to be on the road by 4.30am.

After they left I got to work on putting JB's room together . . .first I had to dismantle and move the queen size bed out then get to work putting together the IKEA furniture and putting everything I have accumulated in the past few mths into the cupboard and get everything set :-)

So I took a few pics . . . .not sure my neighbours appreciated the banging of a hammer at 5am in the morning!!!

I have still got to get a rug off lay-by for this room too . . .and Auntie TP is doing a big painting for one of the walls too :-)

Love Cara

Yep it was Baby Shower time already on the weekend, I am now 32weeks and a bit along WOW!!

The shower was lots of fun . . .I made people endure a few games but nothing too silly or girly or gross for that matter . . . lots of people there including myself had never been to a baby shower before so there was no real assumption made as to what it would be like :-))

I had bought a big blank canvas and paints for people to put a handprint on, I am going to hang this in the Nursery . . .as a reminder of the day and also the amazing supportive people I have around me.

We had lots of food and I think most people mingled together . . .though I did force them to at one stage for a group game I had set up :-))

Prizes were boxes of choc and wine . . .

About 17 people came along to join in the fun!!

I recieved some amazing books as my shower was a baby book shower and I asked people to bring a gift of a book to start of JB's book collection . . . .wow I got such a huge range and some really nice books :-))

Thank you to all who came

Love Cara xo
