Oh how my little girl has grown up so fast! Here she is dressed and ready for her 1st day at full-time Kindy last Monday! Talk about excited... She HAD to wear a skirt, she is starting to want to wear dresses and skirts ALL the time...Anyway, she loves Kindy and I am loving the break from her, she is into the FERAL FOURS, although still lovely aswell!! (of course!!)

CHICKEN CHOW MEIN!!!!!
From Jamie Oliver's Ministry of food!! Was a really yummy dish and I knew that DH thought so too, as he took leftovers for lunch and he only ever does that when something is really good! So, I was pleased with myself!! If you want the recipe, let me know and I will post it!!

This photo of my friend's baby is too cute, she bought her around for her first swim yesterday but she didn't like it at all!!! She was interested to see what was going on, but I think the pool scared her.. She is too cute and had real tears when close to the pool....

CJ entry for Simmi's swap, it has sort of hidden journalling ont he two red pages poking out of each side, and the affirmations are from a deck of Louise Hay Affirmations. I looked through them for appropriate ones and was going to re-write them but thought, I may aswell just use them on my page! (A-la Witchy style)

All is ok around here, am starting to have a little panic about the future, but my feelings are up and down anyway so I know I will be ok in a day or so... The baby's birth is coming up soon now, and I am forced to think about things a bit more...
A couple of things lately have made me face the actual reality of the situation...
I have been putting off thinking about things as I knew it was a long way away,
And now it seems as though the birth is really not that far away now...
And I'm scared for the future and what might happen and I know that worrying now won't help things one bit but I am suddenly remembering how small Mia was when she was born and the truth of what may come our way with a brand new baby. I just hope that it's strong and fights with everything it's got!!

Enough sadness, it's a beautiful day here today and when Mia goes to Kindy this afty, I am going to sit at my scrap table and play and tommorow when Mia goes to Kindy I am going up the road to sit at my wonderful friend's house and scrap there too!!! So, let's bring on some scrapping,hey!!

A few pics of Bubbas room for a friend that would like to see!!
Hope this gives you an idea!!

Hi there!!! Been a little while! But I'm still around, blog hopping when I can and trying to inspire myself... just not sitting at my scrap desk and actually scrapping... Oh well, it shits me that I'm not scrapping much, I have a lot of nice new papers and embellies, but just am not into it! I have to pull my finger out this week and do the two CJ's that are sitting on my desk, so that is this weeks mission! One of my CJ's from another swap I have been involved in has gone missing at this stage, and I am a bit upset about it, but really in the big scheme of life and things in life, it's not going to affect me forever IYKWIM, so I am not getting that upset over it...
The below LO is for The Boxx's monthly sketch challenge, it's ok, was DH's birthday on the 29th so used some photos from that....
Oh, and the photo of Mia and I was taken today, we have been swimming in the pool today, it's the first time that I have gotten in this season, and I must say it was nice and warm in there, we all had a great time.. lots of pool toys that I just have to have in the pool too, and even though we had sunscreen slapped on, it's nice to feel the sun on the skin! I am 27 weeks in this photo, DH was sitting down, while we were standing up, surely I don't look that big!!! Not in my tummy, but everywhere else?? Anyway..... As long as the baby is healthy apart from it's existing probs, I'm a happy camper!

This post has turned into a bit of a ramble as usual, but here is a piccy of the new Jamie Oliver cookbook I scored this week, full of fabulous, back to the basics recipes that I need, I am not into my cooking either ATM, so it's going to inspire me (I hope)... Far out though, these books are exy, I saw this online for $65 not that I paid that much, but it was still $40..... That's retail therapy for you!!

And I watched an episode of this (Jamie at home) on Austar this evening, what a great show, tonights was about carrots and beets, so now I want to grow white, purple, AND orange carrots... Maybe next year but I have already found heritage seeds online, I just love to grow vegies.... Next year FOR SURE!!!

Thanks for visiting, and thanks to all my internet friends who I know think about us... I am doing ok, just have to wait and wait now.... Baby is kicking strongly and that makes me so happy... DH and I are working on a few names, I really want one with 'meaning' behind it...
Thanks for visiting!!
