Busted!

Today I had a man come to the door to sell me milk, bread, cheese, fruits & vegetables. It sounds like a good idea so I'm doin it. But that's not the point. While I was talking to the man at the door Xander got up from his nap and this is how I found him....

36 weeks...again!

Today I am 36 weeks pregnant...again! I've added a picture from last time round to compare. With Xander I started at 65kg and was 90kg at full term. This time I started at 84kg and now I'm 87kg. Not doin too bad! Today I bought an outfit to wear when I'm not pregnant. I have NO idea if it will fit me, but if it doesn't it will be my goal to make it fit!

A disgustingly delicious evening...

Carlos is headed home to the States today so last night Troy and I went out with the Hawthornes to Morgan's, a fancy seafood restaurant at Redcliffe. Seafood could be my most hated food in the world, but it's Troy's favourite! I ate before we left and got dessert at the restaurant instead :P Troy said his meal was delicious. We already knew that though, because we all waited around for another 1/2 an hour to see him devour a crab. Trust me, there was no meat left in that shell! Thanks Ian and Loraine!

Don't judge me!

Today I ate nearly an entire block of Caramello chocolate. Usually when I'm pregnant I'm completely off sugar and chocolate all together. I dunno why today was different, but it sure tasted good! Somehow I've still managed to only gain 2.5kg since I got pregnant. That prolly won't last for long if I keep chocolate in the cupboard...

The REAL birthday!

Today was Xander's real birthday so we invited a few friends that didn't come to the family party and we went to McDonalds for lunch. The boys had a great time playing in the playground and Xander got even MORE presents - sooo spoilt! I actually spent most of the time having contractions but they went away after about 2 hours. For a while there we thought we'd have 2 babies with the same birthday! :P

Birthday number Two!

We had Xander's 2nd birthday party on Saturday. Everything went really well, even if it did cause me A LOT of stress! (Next year we're goin to Macca's!) :P I made homemade sausage rolls, party pies and pumpkin soup and everyone said they were delicious. Troy's Pop even asked where he could buy the pies from! Xander had lots of fun blowing out the candles, cutting his cake and opening all of his awesome presents. He got books, a big scary dragon with a remote control, a homemade church bag with a game and frog book, a tool station, slippers, toy cars & trucks, puzzles, figurines of his favourite dogs in the world - Devil & Bender, a Mr Potato Head, a toy boat with Diego & Dora...I think that's all. Sorry if I forgot anyone. Xander got LOTS of presents, he's very spoilt :) He had a very fun day with his cousins. Thankyou for coming everyone!
