New Chiro

Saw Nic, our new chiro today. Feeling much better now especially in the hip area.

First "Dinner Party"

We had Bernie and Matty around for our first dinner party tonight. Was very hard to cut up a roast on a tiny, wobbly camping table.

Obs appointment #2

Quite an uneventful visit to the obstetrician today. Dr Titiz was happy with the results of the second ultrasound and since I was feeling fine and didn't have any questions it was a very quick appointment. We listened to the heartbeat again and that was about it.

Bike Ride

Went on a slow 60 km bike ride around the Brisbane river today. Started out in Toowong where we met up with Bernie, Lance, Matty and Pete. Cycled a short way before Matty's crank fell off. We left him and continued to Brett's Wharf. The bike paths along the river are really nice. Matty met us with is fixed bike and we squeezed in a yummy lunch at the Breakfast Creek Hotel. We then headed back along the south side of the river and ended up cycling across the bridge at St Lucia and back to the boys house in Chapel Hill. What a mission! We were all completely buggered by the end of it. Em coped well with little discomfort. But as the tummy grows cycling may become more difficult.

Bed arrives!

Glad to finally sleep on a bed tonight. Getting up off the matress on the floor to go to the toilet in the middle of the night was becoming quite a challenge.

New desks

Our enormous new desks arrived yesterday. Took a while to assemble them in the room as they just fit!

Second Ultrasound - he's a BOY!!

Went for our second ultrasound today. Sat in waiting room watching the BMX racing in the Olympics. The scan was mainly about identifying normailities in key body parts. Everything looked normal and we're pretty sure it's a boy! Called the parents to let them know and had a tasty burger with Matty as a late lunch.

Ems last game of Ultimate

Em played her last game of ultimate tonight. Pubic pain indicated it was time to stop.

Dentist

First trip to the dentist in a while. Thought should get that all checked out before bub comes along and there is less time. All good - phew!

New clothes

Em has put half of her wardrobe into a box for "post-baby" use. The other half is likely to be reunited in the box shortly. Bought a few new items of maternity clothing today.

Zorbing!

Went zorbing today. Trying to cover lots of fun activities that may become more difficult shortly. Was heaps of fun! Thanks to Andrew's work mates at 3. :) The bub didn't seem to mind rolling down a hill in a big inflated plastic ball with water in it. Andrew did the ride where you're harnessed to the inside of the ball and it's dry. The wet ride was tonnes of fun with both of us inside the ball together.

Garage Sales

We went to a couple of garage sales to find some extra furniture. Found out that garage sales are awesome for getting cheap baby stuff. Bought a whole load of generic sex clothes.

Aqua Aerobics

Started up aqua aerobics today. Hope to replace my ultimate fix with this low impact "sport". Struggling to think of too many other fun ways to get exercise in.

Drinks and Flying Choppers!

Met up with Mike, Trin and Jason for drinks at the Regatta. Only softies for Em. We all went around to Bernie and Matty's after to watch Pete fly his night time helicopter. Unfortunately forgot to take the camera along.

Whitegoods delivery

Our order from Retrovision arrived today. New fridge, washer, microwave, kettle, toaster, vacuum cleaner, iron and rice cooker. We're now all kitted out.

Went and saw the Dark Knight with Bernie and Carlie. Ate "Grill'd" burgers for dinner - best burgers ever!

The move is done, finally!

We finally finished moving all our stuff from Dayboro. We've pretty much unpacked all the essentials. Still a lot of boxes in the babies room to unpack.

We enjoyed a nice big dinner in our new lounge room setup and a small glass of red.
