Early morning pondering

 "What you see and hear depends a good deal on where you are standing; it also depends on what sort of person you are." - C. S. Lewis.

What do you do when you are upset? I'm not one to normally show my emotions out loud, but today a few things just boiled up and I became upset which then turned into crabbiness. I'd blame it on my pregnancy hormones, but I know that I'd be in the same boat even if I didn't have a little babe trying use my lungs as a trampoline.

Then I found the above quote, and it just completely summed up how I am feeling right now. Perception is a funny thing, people are funny things. I'm not much of a hater, or a 'do not like' person, but if I had to name one thing that I do hate then that would be the realisation of a break of trust in someone or in my case today 'some people'.

Hopefully tomorrow (or should I say today) brings with it some peace in the present situation, at least if it doesn't, I know that I can find it in three particular people xx

I miss you!!

I'm one of those extremely lucky people that have a soul mate, my best friend from birth, Jess. She is miles away in a different country at the moment and has been since we were 14, but still our friendship never diminishes. I can't believe that it has been almost a year since I seen her last and I miss her...

So I thought I'd share a picture from her last trip home (July last year)

Blog this: Pride

Tis about time that I tried to step back into the blogging world after an extended absence... and what easier way than with a Blog This challenge.

Tell us about a proud moment in life - of you, of someone else, when you made someone proud.  Maybe you want to focus on an aspect of your life or someone you know that exudes pride?

Well, no need for a second guess on what this one will be about... My beautiful son, Charlie. Most parents I know beam from head to toe with pride for their children. Your proud the moment they are born, your proud when they learn to walk, your even proud at times when they leave you with a 'nasty' surprise in their nappies, hehe. It is just such a simple thing that I am blessed with each day, to pick me out just look for that crazy mumma on the football side lines barracking like there's no tomorrow, or the mother that has more pictures hanging around the house than paint on the walls, because I am just so entirely 100% proud of my little man.

(It makes me giggle just thinking of me on the sidelines at auskick next year when he starts)

**Bump Day** 33 weeks

Ok, so I am few days late. Not having a good week. Had an emergency trip to the dentist yesterday which resulted in a pulled tooth :(. In quite a bit of pain at the moment, hopefully it should clear up in the next few days. Couldn't even be bothered with a bowl of soup for dinner tonight, just sticking to the luke warm cups of tea drunk through a straw... they done as much as possible due to me being pregnant but the dentist wants to wait to finish up after babe has arrived and I am not looking forward to it.

7 or so weeks to go... not long at all. 6 weeks till the little mans birthday and a few more engagement's in the mean time. Time is going to fly.

**Bump Day** 32 Weeks

So I feel as though we are on the final countdown now, 8 or so weeks to go until I am no longer a mother of one...

Did the last bit of shopping today, just another pack of terry towelling nappies just incase I find myself running short one day, a few nappy covers and Charlie insisted on being able to buy this red track suit set and a blue growth suit... he is so sweet and is always wanting to buy things for our baby.

Feeling tight, out of breath and out of energy. Sleep has not improved, which is the one thing that is really getting me down at the minute, I just don't have the energy to do anything. Our 30 minutes in town today has wiped me out!

Hopefully I'll be back on board to this blog properly soon.

So sleepy... I think if I could actually manage more than 3 - 4 hours sleep a night I might actually be feeling a little better. Last night I even took a panadol before bed as on top of all my pregnancy related things I now have a wisdom tooth cutting through my gums... lucky me! But it was to no help.

Charlie and I are spending our days reading and watching dvd's as that's all the energy I seem to be able to muster. 

What a wonderful smile to share my days with :).

**Bump Day** - Week 31... only 9 or so weeks to go

So its been a while since I have uploaded a 'bump day' picture, but as my previous post mentions I haven't been feeling to well.

Bump is growing along quite fast now, only 9 or so weeks to go and it feels like an eternity. My tummy skin is sore from being so tight, and when babe kicks it feels like someone is pressing a finger into a bruise. I am totally uncomfortable, getting no sleep but still try to remind myself everyday how wonderful it is to be pregnant, not long to go now!!
