Easter Weekend etc

Mum and Dad came down, and we went to Akaroa for a day. I managed a bit of walking, and a full 18 holes of Mini Golf. Unfortunately this meant for the next few days my back was aching. A trip to the osteopath, combined with bubba dropping down to 2/5 engaged has meant that my back has been a whole lot better recently - Thank goodness!
We've got the birth box all ready to go (well, boxe's plural - couldn't fit it all into one), with all the bits and pieces needed for our homebirth. I've split the stuff into 2 boxes, one for during labour, and one for after bubs comes. I figure if we need to transfer to the hospital we can just chuck the 2nd box in the car, to save the hassle of packing a hospital bag.
Getting really excited about everything thats going to happen in the next month or so!




The walk to Onawe Pa on Banks Peninsula. Awesome coloured rocks!

34 weeks.


I look so much bigger in photo's than in the mirror! Now I see why people keep asking me if I'm due any day.
Been feeling overall pretty good, obviously all the usual preggy things like sore back and hips, shortness of breath, heartburn etc but nothing I can't handle!
Got a yucky headcold too, but seriously, it would take more than that to get me down - I've been feeling lots of happiness and excitement about meeting this little one. I love being pregnant!
