Just wanted to say well done to Marcelle who got her book listed! If you want to take a look, please go here: Baking Maybe's

I just wanted to mention too that Connor slept through last night!!!! He slept from 7pm until 6:20 this morning - wow how awesome it was to get a decent night's sleep. We spent some time on the beach yesterday, so I think the fresh sea air might have knocked him out!

TTc side, not much news really, cd 25 today and this cycle seems to be draaaaging it's feet somewhat. It feels like I have been on the same cycle for a few months already he he he. I think i will perhaps poas next week friday IF af decides to stay away. Hold fingers.............

Illness???

Well last night I had the worst tummy ache ever! Now before you all go getting excited, it's not pg related (well at least i don't think so) but I actually think it was from all the biltong i ate LOL!

This morning I am still feeling 'tender' and would love it to be ips, but honestly............ not feeling it much this month :(

I am on cd23 today and am not planning on poas anytime soon. IF I am late, then maybe, otherwise will wait for af to arrive. Sorry to dissappoint, but like I said, not feeling it much this month .............

Weekend 'no news'

So the reason I haven't updated recently is there isn't much news to report he he he

Our weekend came and went and was pretty quiet. We had Donna and Darryl over for a chinese braain on Saturday and that was really nice as Connor got to play with Kiara! They so cute...........

Sunday we did a bit of shopping and just did some house chores. Yup I know pretty boring but nice in the long run.

TTC stuff

Right so i forgot to poaopk on Saturday (I know - really stupid). Sunday's opk was very clear, but not as dark as the control line. Monday's was darker than Sundays, but Tuesday's was the same as Monday's!!! Confused?? Imagine my mind!

One thing that was quite hectic though is the pain I had yesterday. I felt like I could barely walk. Now people in the know say it could have been the egg being released? So I guess we will wait and see!

Either way, i presume i am in the two week wait now - time will tell!

Hold fingers..

Party pics

Wow the party was a huge success! All the kids had a blast & Connor absolutely loved having all the 'babba's' (his words) over!

Here's a few pics:

The second birthday.....

Let me start by saying thanks so much for all the good birthday wishes for Connor - it's great having so many family and friends thinking of him!

Connor's morning started off well, one pressie and a bottle.

I then took Connor to the movies to watch Ice Age 3. It was good except for the fact that the 3D glasses are so big, there's no way of keeping them on a kiddie's face - so Connor just watched is like normal. He fell asleep half way through - but it was all good.

Daddy came home in the afternoon & we gave him his "big pressie" - his Y-Bike! Shame he absolutely loves it!

We then did some party preparation by washing his 'old bikes' so that the friends can ride on them at the party:

After we finished with that, we went and got changed and went to RJ's for dinner. Carys and Shaun drove straight from Jhb to Rj's - so it was awesome having them there for dinner.

Connor played on the climbing frames and had a ride on the dodgems. He had an absolute blast of a time.

His dinner was finished off by mommy asking (more like forcing) the waiters to sing happy birthday to the big boy & blowing out the candles on his ice cream! It was so sweet, then he passed out on my lap.

The rest of our evening was pretty quiet in preparation for the following day.............
