We've had a fun couple of days. PB has Weds/Thurs off so it always turns out to be our weekend. A surprise swell yesterday led to a change of plans and impromptu surf. I watched my husband get smashed by 6ft waves and tried to tell myself he's been doing this since he was 12 so all shall be fine. And of course it was. He came out happy and lovely with reports of broken surfboard fins and big unidentified animals floating by.
Afterwards a drive up the Blue Mountains. Visiting some friends and their beautiful 12 week old baby girl, who was tired and grizzly but refused to miss out on the party and stayed awake looking at us through sweet blue puffy eyes.
Bumpday came and went, and we took a 32 week old belly for a swim at Jelly Bean pool on the way home. There was some jumping off rocks which neither myself nor bump participated in, but PB seemed to enjoy it.
And we stopped in a little town to find a particular second hand bookshop, but found this one instead. PB picked up a couple of bits and I hovered in the Children's section. I didn't buy anything but found a few cool books, and the owner was so lovely that when we showed an interest in the French Baroque he was listening to he took the CD out and insisted we take it for an extra $4!
That was it, another weekend over. Back at the computer with my newly found kankles sitting in a bucket of cold water. Hope you all have a lovely weekend ahead. x

How your photos make me long for summer here. Can't wait until I'm good and bumpy and can plunge into the Med. Think, you'll be snuggling your little bear up in winter woolies by that time... Exciting!! xxx

wow!! looks like such a great time!
ReplyDeleteoh darling, swollen feet.
ReplyDeletea few things you can do:
ankle rotations to increase blood flow and decrease congestion.
keep drinking water - lots. more water actually decreases fluid retention.
lying with your legs up the wall - I'll show you how to do this when you come up next Thurs. just try to keep your feet elevated whenever you can...ice foot baths and massages from PB help too - just make sure he doesn't press too hard on the feet or ankles (it can induce labour).
you've grown so much since last week...can't wait to see you.
Love the books! And the surf photos. Almost unbelievable to someone on the other side of the globe. But keep 'em coming! It's like therapy. Sorry about the kankles, hope the massage helps.
ReplyDeletethis looks like so much fun!
ReplyDeleteI just love all your pregnant swimming shots - you're looking incredible my friend. xx
