The past week has been a lovely mix of productive and relaxing times. It's a relief to me that the little one's clothes are now washed, folded and stacked in neat piles in drawers or hung on mini hangers in the cupboard, the nursery is starting to take shape, my hospital bag is packed (albeit with a few items still to add), a few final baby goodies have been ordered and Mum and I have plans to head out tomorrow to tick the last few items off my bebe shopping list.
I've also had some time to catch up with friends, cuddle a new babe (which definitely made me feel a little impatient to meet our little one), enjoy another pre natal massage and hit some garage sales over the weekend - picking up some wooden toys and puzzles, and a lovely old bevelled edged mirror for the nursery.
The little one continues to move and dance about in my belly - and I'm beginning to notice some twitches and pains way down low. I woke to some aches, almost period pain-like, early this morning and lay wondering if they were going to progress into anything more. They didn't...and whilst I feel we are getting close, I'm sure there is still quite some time before we meet our little one. It feels reassuring to know that my body is starting to prepare...

PS. Some sweet, sweet decals from Shanna Murray's charming collection arrived in the post today, and just because this lovely lady posted about them only yesterday (spooky!) I thought I'd include a few pics as they just delightful and capable of bringing a little bit of happiness and a touch of surprise to your walls...

ReplyDeleteIts very exciting that in a few weeks you will be holding your little one for the first time. And I so remember "those" feelings way down low - weird and wonderful at the same time.
ReplyDeleteYAY!!
so cute, i love those wall decals! and i spy smith in the background, do you like it? debating whether or not to pick it up... :)
ReplyDeleteSounds like exactly the type of week you should be having at your stage of pregnancy - a bit of nesting and a bit of me time. I'm hoping to sneak in a pregnancy massage in the next week or two too. You sound so perfectly organised at the moment, I feel so scattered still with lots I want to get done and yet time is slipping away slowly. I hope my final weeks can follow a similar pattern to yours. Take care x
ReplyDeleteHello there! I'm so impressed you have taken a bump shot every week, I kind of wish I had done so myself. It will be lovely to look back on in future. Wishing you all the very best for your birth. x
ReplyDeletethis comment is so late (you could have had your baby by now!). Just wanted to say I'm thinking of you...it's all very exciting! I LOVE those decals, amazing! x
ReplyDeleteoh wow, that came around really quickly (for me anyway). How exciting. I love those decals, they are so beautiful - aesthetically and in meaning. Best wishes for the upcoming arrival!
ReplyDeleteexcuse me Claire but where's the nursery shots? I'm dying to see! x
